SoulFull Sound Bathing
This past weekend I was invited by my friend and Reiki Master practitioner, Hope De La Mora to attend a year end sound bath and reiki healing session. In the past, I’ve only experienced reiki sessions one-on-one, although experienced a group sound bath. There was a room of 70 participants and the energy was amazing. For those unfamiliar with reiki, it’s an energy healing technique that reduces stress and anxiety, helps remove emotional blocks, as well as promotes relaxation, and assists with physical pain. Practitioners use their hands to deliver energy that helps improve and balance the body which supports healing. For those unfamiliar with a sound bath, it’s a full-body restorative listening experience that uses instruments to connect the mind, body, soul, and spirit. Both practices allow a person to completely unplug from external mind chatter, providing self-discovery within.
The description of the event read:
2022 has understandably left many of us depleted. Take this time to fill up your soul and head into the New Year as your most authentic YOU.
All are welcome! Whether this is your first energetic experience or you’re seasoned in the energetic realm, this event is for EVERYONE. We’ll be bringing together some of the most gifted and loving practitioners to guide you through a spectacular energetic experience.
I knew by the description I would love the experience. As everyone entered with their yoga mats, pillows, and blankets, they placed them in neat rows. I met new friends on either side. To my right was a woman that felt hurried because she was rushing from her daughter’s birthday party and had the timing of the event wrong. The man on my left was bringing his teenage daughter and her friend to experience the energetic healing and beautiful music.
For the next 90 minutes we were given the gift of reiki and soul-felt music. The space between each person and mat allowed for the reiki and sound bath practitioners to gently and easily reach everyone in the room. I can only speak to my personal experience but I had chills running through my body most of the session. Some the instruments had a deeper connection with my body. There was an instrument that sounded exactly like waves crashing on the shore, and another one that sounded like thunder; both were very powerful. There were also instruments that sounded softer and felt gentle to my body.
The experience was both soothing and powerful. Soulful sound bathing allowed me to go within to just be. To be present in the moment while the reiki healing and instruments cleansed my mind, body, soul and spirit. I felt renewed and relaxed. It was a beautiful gift of love.
