Infused Sound Healing

Taking Your Frequency to a Whole New Level ! by Tara Holm , contributing writer

Grounding , Cleansing , and Infusing all happened one evening in October . Kansas City Cannabis and CLOVR hosted a Marijuana Infused Sound Healing Bath ( mental bathing ) in the West Bottoms . As everyone settled in and got MJ relaxed , we began with a grounding , clearing meditation , learning some breathing techniques and preparing our bodies for what was to come .

Kassie Ferrero and Joanna Metsker lead individuals through a sound journey that can ’ t be explained , only felt . The talents of these women filled and vibrated our bodies for a full 60 minutes . Everyone who dropped in went on a sound journey immersed with vibrations from the bass and violin . In all , 26 beautiful humans showed up without expectations and left with a whole new mental health care tool in their tool bag !
When you listen to soothing sounds , your body releases endorphins , serotonin , dopamine , oxytocin , and norepinephrine . These feel-good chemicals make us happy and help move us out of fight or flight stress responses . It can also reduce blood pressure and heart rate .

Sound has been utilized in various cultures for thousands of years as a tool to help heal and balance the body , mind , and spirit . Sound healing can combine different healing sounds , music , and instruments . It involves using specialized sound frequencies to create a therapeutic atmosphere to promote deep rest , nervous system rebalancing , and emotional release . Ideally , a hypnotic , meditative , or theta brainwave state is created , which allows access to deeper levels of inner wisdom and healing . Many people find that after practicing sound healing techniques , they experience increased energy , improved mental clarity , increased creativity , and better relationships . It is a safe , affordable , and effective way to take you to that next level of refreshed mental health .
Since ancient times , many cultures have used music and singing to heal the body and spirit . Ancient Egyptians believed musical incantations could be an effective way to treat illness . Native American tribes also believed that certain sounds had healing powers . In the ancient Indian practice of nada yoga , yogis use sound vibrations to calm the mind and release stress .
The ancient Greek philosopher Pythagoras , known as the “ father of music ,” was the first to prescribe music as medicine . He explored how harmonic frequencies could be healing and applied these principles to everything from family and friends to personal growth .
Sound healing has also been used for thousands of years around the world to heal both mental and physical ailments . It is a very effective form of alternative medicine because it works directly on the body ’ s Energy Field and Chakras rather than the body itself . When the energy body is healthy and balanced , its natural healing abilities are enhanced .
Want better sleep ? Listening to soothing music before bedtime can make us sleepy and improve sleep quality because the relaxation response is triggered by slow brain waves , such as those produced by deep meditation .
Inflammation in the body . When we suffer from physical pain , our brains send signals
to our bodies to stop producing certain hormones . But when we listen to soothing music , our brains release endorphins , which block the effects of these inflammatory hormones and help relieve pain .
I could go on and on about all the benefits of Sound Therapy . Simply put — I ’ d have to say — you ’ ll need to experience Sound Therapy for yourself ! Listen to soothing sounds in the car or try different sound baths in your area . Incorporate it into your daily routine ! Try it for two weeks and feel the results for yourself .
