Sound Healing

Sound Healing

Sound has been used for healing for at least 40,000 years

The Sound Healing Journey above, Woza Ekhaya, (Come Home in isiZulu) was created by our friend and colleague, the Sound Healer and DJ Neil Davis, currently residing in Manchester in the UK. Working with rhythm and binaural beats, Neil weaves an acoustic tapestry of vibrational soundscapes that tunes, harmonizes, and settles the nervous system. The art and science of sound in which he is working–weaving an organizing vibrational journey–harks back 40,000 years to the earliest instances of sound used for healing. The Yidaki (Digeridoo) has been used for 40,000 years by Aboriginal Australian people to ceremonially organize consciousness and transport us into different realms. When the Egyptians and Greco-Roman’s of antiquity, with Pythagoras, discovered musical intervals and re-discovered how harmonic tones can be a medicinal tool for healing, the lineage of sound healing moved into the origins of western culture. Today we use sound the same way by intentionally delivering specific sound vibrations to the body, mind and nervous system to affect changes at our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels. Because of their varying structures, densities, and organizations, various bodily organs resonate at different frequencies. Whereas the violin is the instrument most like the human voice, the cello is the instrument in the West closest to the vibration of the body. Yet these are just European instruments. When we open to the full range of instruments around the world–percussion, stringed, wind, etc., the horizon opens infinitely.
