I, Therese am a life long learner. My ongoing fascination is everything to do with sound as a helper in personal development and higher consciousness. I have been in hot pursuit of these themes of sound since I acquired my first crystal bowl in 1992. It started out as a” learn through play” but for ten years now it has been course after course of the art, science and technology of sound. Sound as health enhancer is a rapidly expanding field of study so the trainings are current and readily available.
There are several prongs to my sound practice. The study and implementation of sound as a helper, sidekick or assistant to our growth on all levels of physical, mental emotional & spiritual, is a main thrust for me. When you come to a crystal bowl meditation, you are in the presence of quarts crystal, more than 99% pure, a super conductive substance used in computers to transmit information. Quarts crystal is an amplifier. To interact wisely with an amplifier is to be mindful and deliberate with our intentions of harmlessness to self and others. We do a simple burning ceremony to let go of the past, our old stories and our fixed positions. Then we frame our consciousness toward positive life giving and life enhancing intentions naming our needs and desires.
My playing field with the sound of the crystal bowls is meant to be light and gentle. Using the sound to slow down and be at home internally with the inner world is my axiom. There in the unseen world that is personal, we start with the removal of garbage.
To quote Louise Hay, “You need to see the dirt if you want to clean your house.” This removal is key to going forward as it frees up a lot of energy and unlocks our creativity. With the sweet help of the crystal bowls, our letting go is easy, much like brushing your teeth or putting on a load of laundry and the results are giddy, fun and surprising… as the creative process is suppose to be!!
