Question 1

What is Sound Healing?

Accepted Answer

Sound Healing is the use of instruments or music to relax the brain so the body can activate the parasympathetic nervous system (the part of our nervous system that allows the body to rest, digest, and heal itself).

Question 2

What is a Sound Healing Session with Dawn like?

Accepted Answer

First we have tea and settle in a bit and chat about your intention for the session.  This process makes the sound healing more potent and customized. Then you get comfy in the sound healing studio, laying down and supported by pillows, blankets, a BioMat, even a mattress if getting on the floor is not preferred. Dawn then leads you through a breathing exercise to begin relaxing the body.  When the sound healing begins, Dawn plays instruments like gongs, crystal singing bowls, Himalayan brass bowls, the harmonium, and others to help the body enter a state of healing, relaxation, & re-centering.  Many people fall asleep, some are in between awake and asleep, and the experience is deeply relaxing.

Question 3

Can I book a private yoga or sound healing session?

Accepted Answer

Yes!  I would love to tailor a sound session or a yoga class just for you and  for what you are facing in your life currently. Please reach out to me  and book the session on the web site.

Question 4

Why don't some of the events or sessions list the location on the website?

Accepted Answer

The Sound Nest and some other events Dawn leads take place in a private residence and the address is sent to you upon scheduling your session. The Sound Nest is in a dedicated sound studio and separate from the rest of the house.

Question 5

What are the benefits to Sound Healing?

Accepted Answer

Sound Healing helps the brain relax and the body have time and space to heal itself. This is especially more potent with an intention of what you want your body to direct healing too, but the body has innate wisdom and performs beautifully all on its own. Sometimes the body just needs the brain to "get out of the way." Sound Healing helps reduce anxiety, clear blocks, and reduce tension and worry. It also promotes healing to anything your body is facing, and promotes better sleep, clarity and focus.

Question 6

What do I bring with me to a session?

Accepted Answer

Bring anything you like to help you be most comfortable--favorite pillows, supports, cozy blankets, eye cover.  Dawn has supports and cushions to lay on in the Sound Nest, & plenty of pillows and blankets. Our new location at the Inner Wolf Retreat Space has memory foam cushions to lay on and a few pillows for support, but you will need to bring your own pillows and blankets to events at this location. Most of all, bring an open mind and open heart, and your body will know what to do from there! All you have to do is BREATHE!
