SOUND HEALING
WHAT IS SOUND HEALING?
Sound healing, or sound therapy, is a powerful practice where we are offered the opportunity to heal, gain balance & achieve harmony through the sound & vibration of powerful healing instruments. The sense of relaxation that is often achieved by sound healing is as a result of activating the parasympathetic nervous system. In addition to our heart rate and brain waves slowing down, we may also expand our consciousness to a higher level. This can help us to release trapped emotions, trauma and stale energy, promoting healing & creating a sense of equanimity & balance. Ultimately, sound healing can assist us in connecting with our 'soul self' – the all-knowing, grounded, instinctive part of ourselves that so many of us may struggle to access in the busy, fast-paced world we live in.
WHAT IS OUR APPROACH?
Lau has trained with one of the world's leading Gong Practitioners, Sheila Whittaker, & is a qualified Sound Therapist registered with The College of Sound Healing. Our sound healing sessions focus mostly on the gongs specifically, all of which have their own unique frequency & healing abilities. Throughout our sessions, the gongs are also surrounded by a supporting cast of sacred instruments including the hand-pan, singing bowls, bells, chimes, the shruti box and drums.
In addition, Lau is also an Arts Psychotherapist (HCPC registered) & as a result, all our sessions provide a safe, inclusive healing space that is always trauma-informed, person-centred & therapeutic in nature.
