⭐️Music/ sound bathes in conjunction with Breathwork encourages the breather to enter an altered state of consciousness (similar to having a vivid dream).

Therapeutic instruments such as Tibetan singing bowls and gongs will stimulate the alpha and theta brain wave frequencies associated with meditative, clear and peaceful states of mind.

🧠Alpha brainwaves are present during light meditation, daydreaming and deep relaxation. Theta brainwaves are present during REM dreaming sleep, deep meditation and hypnosis. These states are considered the gateway to the subconscious mind and it's here where we experience heightened creativity, depth of imagination and access to the subconscious realms where deep seated healing can take place.

Therapeutic sound also impacts our nervous system, slowing the heart, brain and respiratory rates down to induce a state of deep relaxation and peace. When the brain waves and body are synchronised, balance can be restored and stress relieved.

Alpha is 'the power of now', being here, in the present. Alpha is the resting state for the brain. Alpha waves aid overall mental coordination, calmness, alertness, mind/body integration and learning.
