Tune Up Time

For nearly 20 years, I've included tuning forks in a number of frequencies in my sessions, and healing harp for 30.  Sound and vibration in many forms can help restore balance and effect healing. 

My harmonic tool kit includes Harp, drums, rattles, native American flute, Tibetan bowls and both weighted and unweighted forks.

In 2005, I took the Acutonics basic practitioner training, & found a set of 'Intention Tuners' on e-bay, from a practitioner who was switching fields -  serendipity! 

Vibrational healing pairs well with on body massage or Reiki, and Lightweaving which is done off the body. I use both weighted and unweighted forks during recent sessions, with great results! One long time client & friend told her husband, 'That was the BEST massage I've ever received!' 

"In water and watery solids, such as the human body, sound travels over 4x faster in the form of photons or sonic shear waves. As the sound emanating from tuning forks strikes the body's skin interface, complex electrical & photon interactions take place that can alter tissue dielectric properties including altering various acupuncture meridians. ...." (xiv - in Dr Karl H. Maret's forward to Tuning the Human Biofield)

One explanation for why/how tuning forks work: "teeny reciprocal tuning forks on each cell membrane, producing either incoherent or coherent frequencies, 'changing their tune,' as it were, when bathed in coherent sound." (P 39) 

In 'Tuning the Human Biofield' sound healer
Eileen McKusick writes: "Sound balancing is a therapeutic method that makes use of the frequencies produced by tuning forks to detect and correct distortions and imbalances within the biomagnetic energy field, or biofield, that surrounds the human body." (p1)

I love her image of a 'mail slot' type experience, where information on how to proceed comes in, as though 'a mail slot in the back of the head randomly opens, & a note drops in.' I often experience this when teaching Qigong, or during healing and creative sessions - the information is just there!

This winter I added several longer (lower tone) Schumann Resonance weighted forks, and another set of unweighted to my collection, and am exploring ways to use them in sessions. 
New forks and striker

In the 90s, on my way to a workshop on Music for Healing and Transition, I stayed the night with friends, and played harp for them.  One practices animal communication, and told me their older dog 'asked,' "Is that another way Nadya talks? It makes my whole body feel good!" 

Yes! 
That's another way I talk!

Take it to the Journal

  In our Intentional Creativity practices and classes, we often suggest,  'take it to the journal' especially when feeling stuck or seeking insights.  For decades, I've kept journals with lots of words, and sketchbooks ... in our Intentional Creativity process we combine the two, and use art and color to assist processing and integration.  Healed Enough journal Simple composition books make a great base for these creative journals, and is fun to decorate the covers, as we did in school! Another option is a sketchbook with blank pages - choose something you'll enjoy using!   Simple art materials suffice and add interest - washi tape, markers, inexpensive paint, old magazines for collage, tools for making patterns, oil pastels, mod podge and glitter are fun ways to add color and movement.  This is a great place to record your intention, ideas and insights that arise during a class or project.  At times I participate in a friend's  EFT tapp...

Vibrational Healing

 In neatly 4 decades of offering bodywork and energy seasons, I have collected many modalities and tools. Reiki and other energetic offerings are surprisingly powerful when offered remotely, which gives us the opportunity to work together wherever we are in the World! When we combine Reiki with a dash of creativity, Magïc happens! In 2005, I traveled to my favorite retreat center, Breitenbush Hot Springs for a training in the history and use of  Tuning Forks both personally and in sessions. Already a harpist, I had  studied using sound as a vehicle for balance and harmony a decade before. Our training centered around use of weighted forks on acupuncture points - Ohm tuners and  Acutonics .   Around the same time, I acquired a set of Intentions Tuners (all but one unweighted forks which are  intended for use off the body)  "In water and watery solids, such as the human body, sound travels over 4x faster in the form of photons or sonic shear waves."...
