Because we are vibrational beings, healing occurs though
the effect of appropriate application of intentional sound,
or the expression of unfelt emotions. Sound healers use voice,
musical instruments, and modern technology to affect change
in our well being.
Sound has been used as a healing catalyst throughout human
history, across cultural bounds. Whether the nomadic shaman,
the Tibetan Lama, or Christian, Islamic, Hindu, African or
Jewish priest, musician, or cantor, sound has been found
to carry us closer to that we hold as sacred, and to that
we view as whole. Indeed, "to be whole" is the
very meaning of "healing."
Sacred Singing, mantras and chant, toning (sounding one's
unfelt emotions or improvised sounds expressing emotion,)
Sacred Sound (touching the deeper consciousness waiting to
be found and expressed,) entrainment, shamanic drumming,
music therapy, the use of clear intention, communication,
and mindfulness, all have a growing body of scientific foundation
as to their effective use in the healing continuum of body,
mind, and spirit.
Today, practitioners incorporate voice,
crystal and ancient Tibetan bowls, bells and gongs, tuning
forks, drums, chanting & toning, vibroacoustic tables
and chairs, Cymatic therapies and scopes, composed and intuitive
or improvisational music, in a variety of therapeutic modalities,
often incorporating traditional therapeutic models, each
focused on conscious intention, and mindful expression, creating
an environment for healing, wellness, and growth.
Journey with us through our pages of practitioners, research,
articles, events, our up to date news, and join us in our
many special sound healing events and annual conference on
sound healing presenting some of the most accomplished sound
healers in the field.
The (International) New England Sound Healing Research Institute
was founded in 2002 to further the research, education, networking,
and community building of sound healers, therapists, practitioners,
researchers, and those in the general public wanting to broaden
their experience or understanding of sound healing and its
many uses.
