Sound-Healing Meditation
Madison's Stress-Relieving Sound Healing Sessions

 

DESCRIPTION ​Join us for stress-relieving sound healing sessions! In collaboration, these are offered on retreats and group workshops. Solo, Krista Pfohl of The Awakened Center leads these sessions on her own. If you are looking for ongoing sound events in Madison, check out her website! Meet like-minded people and join a growing community of compassionate friends! Every session is grounded in mindfulness to promote peace within and around Madison. It is a total body reset and feels great EVERY time. 

THE PROCESS First, you are the guided through a short centering to ground into the space. Shortly thereafter, over 15 different instruments are played that resonate and help balance our 7 main chakras. On retreats, Reiki Master Practitioner Teacher, Krista, will step away from playing and walk around to individuals, offering hands off Reiki (Healing Life Force Energy) while Moira continues to play. 

HOW IT WORKS At a cellular level, we are 75% water. As the vibrations of the crystal and Tibetan singing bowls pass over our body (which is why it is also known as a sound bath), our brainwaves go from Beta to Theta, and sometimes, to Delta. Our normal waking consciousness corresponds to the Beta state, which is our brain emitting waves between 13-30Hertz. The feeling of relaxation and concentration is linked to the Alpha state, which sends waves between 8-13Hertz. Then we go into Theta state (5-7Hertz), which is associated with Rapid Eye Movement as well as the release of muscular spasms and energetic blockages. Delta state (0.5-4Hertz) can also be achieved through prolonged playing of the singing bowls, emitting extremely low vibrations associated with deep sleep and other unconscious states. In just 40 minutes, our bodies go through these different brain states leaving you feeling more relaxed, and fully rejuvenated. Common experiences during our sound sessions are seeing vibrant colors, a physical release of aches and pains, emotional releases, connecting with a higher consciousness, feeling “floaty,” communicating with deceased loved ones, and a great sense of peace and relaxation.

How Can Sound Healing Help Me?

Prolonged vibrational healing through sound encourages a deep relaxation response, stimulating the production of theta & delta brainwaves to take you to that often desired but hard to achieve meditative state. It impacts changes in our physiological body, which positively impacts mood. It improves mental clarity and brain functioning.

Sound Healing has been proven to:

• Reduce the body's stress hormones
• Rejuvenate the mind and body
• Support immune health
• Bring our nervous system into balance
• Reduce pain

• Integrate left and right brain patterns
• Strengthen mindfulness practices
• Build community
• Inspire creativity
• Improve one's overall well-being!  ​ ​

We Are 'Yara Sound Collective'

We are a group of total goofballs that find pure joy and alignment in working together to provide sound healing for Dane County. While you'll often find us laughing through the fun, we take our work seriously. We believe in the power of sound, its ability to heal on a cellular level, and the space it creates for spiritual growth. We intuitively play together, blending over 10 different tones of clear quartz crystal in the form of singing bowls, pyramids and a merkabah. From 2017-2019, the three of us regularly put on wellness events in and around Madison WI. Niomi now resides in the Shetland Islands of Scotland. Someday, we hope to visit her for a global retreat experience! Until then, Moira and Krista continue to work collaboratively on retreats and workshops here in Wisconsin. Together, we combine forest therapy, yoga, sound healing and Reiki to create space for deep healing and personal growth.
