UPDATE: My Vibro-Acoustic Sound Therapy Session

You guys! I'm going to my vibro-acoustic sound therapy session this evening and I'm so looking forward to it. I have never received this kind of treatment before. A bestie of mine has and highly recommends it. I can't wait to get on that vibrating table and feel my chakras ping at the different frequencies. With all the rain lately I'm so in the mood for a pick me up. I will write about it once I'm finished.



Here's a description of what I think will transpire:


VIBRO- ACOUSTIC SOUND THERAPY
After an energetic assessment with a certified sound therapist,  lay on a vibro-acoustic sound table, and feel the physical vibrations of music and low bass frequencies fill your body…. It’s like getting an internal massage.

At the same time, listen to special music encouraging your brain to switch from an active beta state to a slower ALPHA, THETA or DELTA state which balances both hemispheres of the brain, slows heart rate and cultivates a deep relaxation, promoting peace and calm within minutes.

Recommendations: relaxation + stress reduction, anxiety, depression, insomnia, alertness + clarity enhancement, pain reduction, circulation + blood pressure, boosts immune, life transitions and improved Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and fibromyalgia symptoms.

Me on the vibrating table.

UPDATE: 
So that is not at all what happened. But I do want to stress how AMAZING my treatment was, and I cannot wait to go back. I will be going soon.

Sometimes when receiving treatment I get really trance-y, and that's what happened with Teresa.

First, we sat down to discuss my form and the reason I was there, which was that I really wanted a tune up and I had started "craving" a session. My friend has gone numerous times to see Teresa and has always told me I'd love it. I just didn't feel like going any sooner. I was either busy, or into something else, etc. I had started feeling like it was time I had my own session and when considering the kind of treatment I wanted to receive, I couldn't think of anything else I wanted to do more. Immensely glad I finally did. 

Teresa did her assessment and based on that (which would be different for everyone based on their needs, using modalities and techniques she uses) she determined I would receive Reiki, Reflexology and Sound Healing.

As Theresa started, I closed my eyes and could see shades of green and turquoise, common colours for healers. Receiving Reiki from Teresa had me feeling so relaxed, I didn't have any sense of my body. I felt I was on the table, but couldn't feel what position my arms were in unless I moved them.  I felt like I was one with the table, LOL. Really.  

Oddly to me, I didn't see anything while she was doing Reflexology. I saw a burst of light in my right eye like a pinprick at one thumb press, but that's it. Thoughts? I absolutely loved receiving reflexology. It was such a treat. I've suggested that my boyfriend goes for a treatment, so he can feel as relaxed as I did. Am I stressful to live with? No. Perhaps?

After that, the music changed, and with my chakras revived, I really began to see a lot of images. Theresa began using her singing bowl. First I saw a folded paper boat on the water. It wasn't intricate, just very simple and the sail came to a triangular point. I saw whales under water, swimming together. Once Teresa really started using the bowl, it had an affect on my images. The whales turned into a prism that was reflecting light but underwater, so very flowy and soft. It was beautiful! That turned into stars in the sky (the music must have changed) which were moving, so I got the feeling I was on a spaceship. Then I saw an eye at the end of a tunnel. Which I thought was interesting at the time. The I realized it was a brown amber colour - I realized it was my boyfriends eye. What does that mean? Then the perspective changed so the eye moved and now I was looking at it from a side view. He's regarding me, then I'm regarding him? I'll have to think on it.

Teresa said that the next time I came to see her I would be ready for the vibro-acoustic table, which I am of course looking forward to! Hopefully this month.  

So looking up my symbols, most of them said I needed to focus on my spirituality, or spend more time practicing my spirituality. I like to use Dream Moods Dictionary but you can find what suits you. Our higher selves, guides, spirits, angels, those who try to communicate will often use symbols so it's always a good idea to write your dreams down, your visions, etc. You'll eventually build up your own symbol library and then you're well on your way to "receiving" and "seeing". 

Just like this but with white paper not bill$.

I had to look up "paper" "origami" and "boat". It's not always an exact match. Paper has something to do with "writing your thoughts down" so I'm taking that to mean this blog.

Best regards.

First time Reiki client

"Ann" visited me for her first Reiki treatment. She had already received another type of treatment that day, which I wouldn't necessarily recommend but she was making a conscious effort to make changes in her current lifestyle and habits.

When I connected to her earlier in the day to clear and read her, I felt a pain in my front left forehead and my left front teeth. The energy in my hands felt like it was being suctioned out. I could feel her third eye chakra, and wondered if she had been experiencing a third eye opening.

When she arrived, she had come prepared with a few questions which is always nice for me. We went over my notes and Ann told me she suffered from migraines, mostly on the left side, but more towards the back of the head. I asked about her teeth and she told me she was just self conscious of them, but there was no pain there.

As she was lying on the table, I saw an image of her sit up and jump up and out of her body. I have seen this a few times before, and I asked if she has dreams of flying. She told me she often did, which tells me she's Astral traveling, where the soul leaves the body and journeys. She's also able to control where and what she does, so she is pretty skilled at lucid dreaming (when you are aware you're dreaming, and can control the events/places in your dream). You can learn these techniques but it comes quite naturally to some lucky people. I seem to have lost the ability, which I find is better the more I meditate (with consistency) so I'm working on it.

Like this but not scary and dark. Astral travel is fun, guys!

Ann said she's also having many dreams of being at school, which I have often as well, and she had been considering taking some classes. She did mention that maybe she'd be interested in learning reiki, and I hope she does. Dreaming that you're in a classroom setting can also indicate that you're astral traveling back to visit with your soul group, per the books Journey or Souls and Destiny of Souls by Michael Newton. This is what I suspect Ann may be doing sometimes.

A common reaction to receiving energy is falling asleep.  Ann told me afterwards she didn't fall asleep, but a few times I had tried to ask Ann a question and she had her eyes closed, and didn't answer me. She was making those little noises we make when we're falling asleep, like long sighs and involuntary hums. Another common reaction I see is little hand movements, pulses and twitching, like Ann was making. (My mom rubs her fingertips together during an entire treatment and has no idea she's doing it). Everyone reacts differently to treatment, but I do like seeing these little visual cues.

Ann was really receptive to the physical sensations that can come along with treatment and as always I felt so lucky to have been able to help facilitate an energy treatment. I'm simply the vessel, and the energy comes from Source or Universal Energy or God, whatever your beliefs include. You work with your guides, your higher self, angels and whomever else you call present to help with your healing. So your intention matters. If you want to heal, you WILL. Say this affirmation before bed, upon waking, and anytime you think to: "I am safe, happy and healthy!" So be it!
