Sound Healing
In a world full of noise, few of us remember that sound frequencies have an innate healing capacity for the body and mind. Sound healing is a holistic healing practice that uses sound to promote physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. It is based on the belief that sound vibrations can affect the body, mind, and spirit in profound ways.
Sound healing can involve the use of various instruments, such as singing bowls, gongs, chimes, drums, and tuning forks. Practitioners use these instruments to create sounds and vibrations that are believed to promote relaxation and healing.
During a sound healing session, the practitioner will typically play an instrument or set of instruments in a specific way, such as by striking a singing bowl or using a mallet to play a gong. As the sound waves travel through the body, they can help to calm the nervous system, reduce stress and anxiety, and promote a sense of well-being.
Some people believe that sound healing can also help to balance the body’s energy centers, known as chakras. Each chakra is associated with a specific frequency and musical note, and by playing instruments that resonate with these frequencies, sound healers aim to restore balance to the body’s energy system.
Using sound vibration through various techniques allows us to maximise the healing and recovery of our clients after their ibogaine treatment.
Sound is a powerful and effective tool for transformation that has been found to be extremely supportive during addiction recovery. Healing sound frequencies affect us physically in every cell of our body, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
Sonic frequencies can literally break apart emotional patterns and blockages, re-balance the entire nervous system, give access to higher levels of consciousness and are so consistently effective for relieving pain that the technique has been used in hospitals.
Deep meditative states of mind through brainwave entrainment accelerate the healing process and provide a space for deep integration and processing of learning and other experiential and transformational processes.
Some of our offerings at Tabula Rasa include sound baths and vocal sound practices to unblock emotions as well as cleanse and activate the subtle energetic fields within the human system to deepen and increase healing.
Drumming and Communal Drum Circles
Drumming is an ancient approach to healing that focuses on self-expression. This therapy has been used for thousands of years by indigenous people to strengthen and maintain physical, mental and spiritual health as well as a celebration of community.
Drumming teaches focus in a playful way. Drumming can also release emotional blocks and relieve stress. A drum circle gets a group communicating, listening to one another and working as a team which establishes a sense of community and involvement.
The drum circles at Tabula Rasa Retreat are fun and rewarding. The group plays along to different types of music, participants may also sing or clap along. When people get into it, they are able to release their inner emotions as well as stress. Some are even able to practice mindfulness or get into a meditative state. Drumming circles promote unity and alleviate self-centredness, isolation and alienation.
