The healing benefits of sound and music to soothe our mind and ease our emotions are well-known to all. As our knowledge of how the body functions develops, so our understanding of the role sound plays in our physical and emotional well-being also deepens.

Anyone can benefit from listening to music as its basic components - vibration & frequency - act as 'neutral' stimuli on many different levels. As music enters our system, it establishes a resonant response producing a global sympathetic reaction throughout the body. Ironically, it's often the music we tend to reject that offers us the most potential for change - if used in the right way!

Sheila's workshop helps you broaden your perspective on listening to music & its role in your life by demonstrating - in an afternoon of interactive experiences - the potentially therapeutic benefits all sound & music have to offer.

Sound affects us deeply because it is one of the body's own mechanisms for regulating biological processes. The body responds rapidly to sound because it has an interconnected network of pathways through which sound waves travel from the surface of the skin down into the cells at the speed of sound - the body is "wired" for sound.

Establishing a symphony of movement through the use of music encourages a release of tension and helps us relax at a deep level, restoring the body's own dynamic movement. When balance is restored, the body's capacity to regulate and repair itself also improves.

Come along and learn more about this ancient healing art - including exercises you can try at home with literally any genre of music - particularly those you don't like!

Important : PLEASE BRING ALONG YOUR FAVORITE MUSIC ON CD
