Singing is Sacred, We Are Made Of Sound
We are made from sound. I repeat this like a mantra to integrate this statement into my moment to moment awareness. And as the sound emerges from my lips, I feel the truth vibrating against my upper palette, sending ripples of ancient knowledge up my spine.
We are made from sound. Go ahead, say it out loud.
In many creation stories, if you listen with your heart, you understand that the ancient ones knew this and passed the knowledge down in soliloquy, poetry, & story. They passed this knowledge down in forests, in caves, & in sacred mountains, through lineages & councils. The wisdom keepers literally sing the knowledge in mantric tones to let the truth be heard in the deep marrow of their bones.
Have you ever stepped into a Buddhist temple & felt the vibration of chants rolling forth from the lips of the holy men? This is a higher truth. Sound carries the consciousness of truth.
From sages to songwriters, many have harnessed the power of sound. This practice isn't restricted to any one culture, belief, or heritage. We have a voice, so we all can make sounds. And if we bring intention into these sounds, we can begin to manifest great things into our lives. There's a secret that I want to reveal to you. Sound is Sacred! Can you believe it?
In the beginning, there was the Word... and the Word was God. This is the message from one of the most famous sacred books in the world. THE HOLY BIBLE.
In the ancient texts of the Yoga tradition, it is written that OM is the primordial sound that created the universe. The original big bang theory!
Even the word Universe can actually be broken down to mean one verse - one song! We are all unique expressions of that song. We are like notes on the symphony of life.
Are you catching a theme here?
Science likes sound too, and has theorized that all of this reality which we see before us, our inner and outer world exists because of a big bang; a sound so powerful, that it created matter from seemingly no matter existed before.
Science does a great job of studying and putting to modern words what the ancient Yogi's, mystics, and indigenous wisdom keepers have known as sacred truth.
But you don't have to take my word for it, its the practice of chanting, toning & singing that has given me a sense of freedom & happiness that I have never really felt before.
Who needs coffee when you can simply sing your favorite song to get those happiness hormones pumping through your system?
I still love coffee, & plant medicines like Cacao to uplift my spirits, but the magic power of the voice is with you wherever, & whenever you are.
Sure, maybe singing show tunes during your lunch break in the office might not win you the best of friends, but a self-practice needs no validation from your co-workers or anyone else for that matter. Its not about the performance, pitch, timbre or tone. It's about understanding the greater existence & connection, and using your sound to show up in the world fully connected, vibrant, & living your truth.
I'm dedicating my life to helping people create a practice using the sound of their own sweet voice to activate and balance the deep layers of their human-ness. The whole of you exists in a rhythm. I work with ancient practices that tune the body, mind, & spirit to its natural rhythm, your natural song.
Would you like to uncover your truth & feel confident enough to sing it out loud, to tell your story, & to let your voice be heard?
