YOGA THERAPY

Yoga therapy is the professional application of the principles and practices of yoga to promote health and well-being within a therapeutic relationship that includes personalized assessment, goal setting, lifestyle management, and yoga practices for individuals or small groups.

Sound therapy is the process of healing the mind and body through music, tones, frequencies, and vibrations. Sound therapy takes into consideration a person’s emotional, mental, psychological, and spiritual well-being and improvement. As we look back in time, the more aware we are of the powers within the heart of all music and all sound. Sound healing is based on the recognition that we are all energetic beings with both individual and composite frequencies. When our frequencies become dissonant, we are no longer living in coherence. Through sound healing, we are able to bring the body back into harmony and back into coherence. Chaos and dissonance occur physically, mentally, emotionally, and even spiritually. With sound healing instruments and the human voice, we can create a stable, harmonious, and coherent being bringing health, peace, and joy. “We are on the threshold of a new world where the understanding of sound and vibration is about to transform our entire medical system, our educational system, and provide access to higher states of awareness for the masses.” David Gibson.
