What can I expect from an energy healing session?

These are only offered in person at this time. Everyone experiences something different. A session is going to be geared towards what you need at that moment.  Most people experience intense relaxation. Some people see colors, feel tingling, or waves of sensations. An energy healing session will consist of a meditation to get you into a relaxed state, reiki, tuning forks, a rain stick, an ocean drum, and sound bowls. Chakra balancing music is played during specific times of the session. Crystals may be used and there will be essential oils diffusing for your specific needs. You will lay on a "massage" table, fully clothed. I offer a blanket, a head and leg pillow, and a sleep mask for optimal comfort.

What is Sound Healing or a Sound Bath?

Sounds create shifts in our brainwaves through entrainment, which is when your brain synchronizes its waves to an external stimuli's rhythm of frequency. Aligning your brainwaves to a certain frequency can cause a positive physiological reaction. This allows the release of nitric oxide, a molecule responsible for expanding blood vessels, increasing blood flow, and influencing pain signals. Sound healing can help regulate emotions and alleviate stress. Sound Therapy can help treat:

~Sleep Disorders

~PTSD

~Anxiety

~Depression

~Chronic Pain

~ADD/ADHD

~Autism

Sound Baths are an acoustic sound healing journey to relax the body, calm the mind, clear the subconscious, and activate the body's natural healing systems. The benefits of a Sound bath are emotional, physical, and mental.

How do essential oils or roller blends help me?

The science of essential oils is fascinating. Essential oils are natural aromatic compounds that come from various parts of the plants.  This could be from seeds, flowers, or the leaves.  These volatile constituents display various biological activities including antimicrobial, antioxidant, antifungal, and antiviral. These constituents provide the plant with its’ defense mechanism to ward off parasites, fungi, bacteria, weather, and predators.  For example, a tree that is wounded may produce a sap for repairing the problem area. 
Essential oils are a complex mixture of chemical compounds that work well to support our bodies because the oils can interact with us on a cellular level. Topical use (roller blends) of essential oils is great for therapeutic purposes. The oils healing properties reach our bloodstream within 20 minutes of application. Aromatic use (diffusing or inhalation) is a very powerful way to experience essential oils. As you inhale an essential oil, it travels up the nasal passages to the olfactory bulb. There it finds the emotional center of the brain, the limbic system. Inhaling these aromatic compounds is the only way to have a direct impact on the amygdala. This is the place where emotional experiences and memories are held. Because of this, essential oils can have a huge impact on mindset, anxious feelings, and emotions.

Aromatherpay works by inhaling specific essential oils, stimulating smell receptors in the nose, which then send messages through the nervous system to the limbic system - the part of the brain that controls emotions. By using specific essential oils that target certain emotions, it can help bring our mental and emotional state back into balance.
