Ladies of Rage and Victoria Folkhart present:
The Alchemy of Sound - its more than just music
Sound healing has been used for thousands of years to support emotional balance, physical healing, and spiritual connection.But today, we’re also seeing a surge of research showing that sound therapy offers real, measurable benefits - not just spiritually, but physiologically and neurologically.
This workshop explores both: the ancient roots and the modern science behind how sound impacts the body and mind.
The Science Behind Sound Healing
- Cymatics shows us how sound shapes matter. Vibrations create complex patterns in sand, water, and even living tissue. Our bodies—made mostly of water—respond deeply to these frequencies.
- Brainwave entrainment uses sound to guide the brain into specific states like deep rest, meditation, or creative flow.
- Clinical studies suggest sound therapy can reduce stress, improve focus, ease chronic pain, and support mental health conditions like anxiety, depression, and PTSD.
- Heart rate, breath, and nervous system activity all respond to sound; making it a powerful tool for calming the body and restoring balance
Sound Healing in Practice
Many ancient traditions knew this instinctively:
- Egyptians used sound to align the soul.
- Aboriginal Australians used the didgeridoo to release stuck energy.
- Monks and mystics around the world used chanting and mantras to access deeper states of awareness.
Today, we use these same principles through tools like drums, tuning forks, crystal bowls, gongs, and guided frequencies to help:Regulate the nervous systemImprove emotional resilienceDeepen sleepClear energetic stagnationSupport personal healing and growth
