My Journey as a Sound Therapist with the RestStation Lounge

1/18/18

My next session with the RestStation Lounge …

PTSD – Mild/Moderate – Duration:  30:00

I thought I would do this as it would be really valuable for Veterans; at least one would think so.  But I also thought, I’ve had a lot of trauma in my life – mental, emotional and physical – why wouldn’t it be good for me to do?

 

The session started by telling me to give all my trauma over to the ocean, dolphins and whales that I would hear.  The sounds of the ocean are so peaceful and soothing.

 

I quickly began to breathe deeply and slowly.  I thought of some instances of emotional trauma that I could give the dolphins.  I love dolphins as they seem such gentle and happy creatures.  I would like to be more like them.  They seem carefree.  The dance on water, laugh a lot and live in pods.

 

The whales however seem to have such mammoth strength and endurance and their eyes are full of wisdom and gentleness.  I thought they might be strong enough to handle some of the physical trauma my body has endures, so I gave the physical trauma to them.

 

I felt cold, energy releasing from different areas of my body moving in direct relationship to the vibro-acoustics coming through the Lounge.  As it moved, so did the energetic release.

 

At one point, it felt like waves washing up//down my physical body and energy field.

 

I would recommend this for all veterans and other people too.  Basically anyone who has had physical or emotional trauma.

 

You will definitely feel better after this session.  I did.

 

If you live in the Littleton area, please contact me directly to try a session on the RestStation Lounge.  If you are a Veteran, I’m running a free trial session for interested Veterans.  Please fill out the contact me form if you are interested in releasing some of the trauma from your service to your country.  Take the first step back into your life at home.

My Journey as a Sound Therapist with the RestStation Lounge

1/11/2018

My next session with the RestStation Lounge was …

Neuralgia and Nerve Inflammation – Duration:  41:56

When this session started, I remember thinking how warm it was making me feel throughout my body.  It’s interesting because the covering on the lounge is vinyl, so oftentimes when you first lay on down, it can be cold depending on the outside temperature.  It quickly warms up though; and I put a blanket over me.  But initially for about 2-3 minutes it feels cool.

 

It was a warmth that was coming from the inside of my body to the outside kind of thing.  I drifted off into the sound.

 

I remember thinking that I didn’t want to fall asleep and wanted to be aware of the shifts happening not only in my body but in my energy field as well.

 

I still have this pain in my right lung.  I’ve had it for over a week now.  It felt like a pulled muscle at first, but with the work I’ve been doing on the Lounge it would have helped that already.  It literally feels like something penetrating through the front of my chest and coming out the backside.  I thought I might have a cracked rib, but couldn’t figure out how that would have happened.  So I figured a muscle strain.  It hurts to breathe.

 

I was hoping my session would resolve this.  It hasn’t happened yet.  I almost called the doctor today as it was worse this morning.

 

I did have a pain in my left foot from being on my feet since 6am until about midnight.  The session really helped this, so that told me that was nerve inflammation and resultant pain.  If I look at the emotional aspects of it … feminine side, caught in the past … I know it has to do with going back to work full-time for someone else.

 

After this session, the pain in my foot was gone as soon as I got up from the Lounge.  That was outstanding!

My next sessions with the RestStation Lounge …

Mucus – Duration:  10:00

Okay it is cold and flu season.  I ply my body with Vitamin C to get me through this time of year.  But we can all use a little help.  To this end, I thought I would do this session as everyone around me is coughing and hacking.

 

When I started listening to the sound I found it to be irritating at times.  I did it anyway because there are too many sick people around me right now.  I can feel my body trying to fight something off so I thought I would lend some vibrational support.

 

At times it felt like my head was floating on water with waves lapping against it.  However, there was a high frequency whine that I found very annoying.

 

My sinuses were dry afterwards.  I didn’t sleep well after this session and the next one.

 

Follow up session to provide additional support for the physical form …

 

Immune Stimulant – Duration:  42:42

This was relaxing and I felt myself go far away in my mind.  There wasn’t anything that really stuck out with this session for me.  It was more about providing the support for my immune system to keep fighting off the germs that I’m being deluged with on a daily basis.

 

We can all do our part by washing our hands, and covering our mouths when we cough or sneeze … and then washing our hands.

 

I did this session with the mucus session tonight as my body is fighting off that cold/cough/flu thing that’s going around.  I was hoping to give my immune system a boost.  I wanted to provide it with a little more support.  So I guess I’ll be able to tell in the morning and tomorrow if I notice any difference from when I woke up today.

 

I can say I had a hard night.  I didn’t sleep well and this morning had a lot of mucus drainage and coughing.  Did it work?  I feel much better this afternoon and evening.  So YES!

 

I love that I can get on the RestStation Lounge for about an hour total and address something that is happening to me on a physical,mental and emotional level and then it’s taken care of!

The RestStation Lounge and Pathways for Veterans Program/Littleton

1/6/2018

I want to talk a minute about why I’m doing this.  A lot of people don’t think of sound as a healing therapy.  A bunch of people think when something hurts, or you are physically in pain or sick you go to a doctor and they’ll fix you.  The doctor usually prescribes a bunch of medications, opioids and other energy suppressants.   They anesthetize you into thinking your okay when you’re not.  The original problem is still there.  Except now it’s worse because you need to take the medication to feel “normal”.

 

Over the years of working with sound as a therapy, I’ve discovered that unless you treat the whole person – mind, body, spirit – you are just putting a band-aid on symptoms.  Then you end up in surgery or worse.  I realized 25 years ago, it doesn’t have to be that way.  You have the power to change your life; to change feeling or being in pain all the time; to change feeling like you will never just be your Self again.

 

Sound can do that for you.   We all vibrate to a specific and unique frequency and vibration, along with every other thing in the Universe.  If we are out of balance, or out of resonance with the rest of our body or environment, we experience dis-ease or physical and emotional problems.  However, I believe that when you bring your Self back into resonance or balance in your vibration/frequency you release the dis-ease or physical and emotional problems. And hey, if you get to lie down while you are doing it?  Makes sense to me to get a regular Tune Up as you do for your car/vehicle.

 

I’ve been thinking of Veterans for some time.  How they put their lives on the line for our country.  To be of service!  To preserve and protect!

 

I’ve spoken with Veterans and they all said, “It was better to keep it over there, than let it come here.”  Wherever there was!

 

I think it’s time we give something back to them.

 

Pathways for Veterans is dedicated to healing the spiritual war wounds of the men and women of our military. Our mission is to create a safe environment where all veterans can experience being heard and are given the tools to re-purpose themselves in mind, body and spirit.

 

Ordinary people can go and make a donation to Pathways for Veterans

My next session with the RestStation Lounge —

Muscle Pain and Injury;  Duration:  52:42m

 

I chose this session because I had been hurt.  I pulled a muscle from my armpit across my chest.  It hurt to breathe.  My muscles were incredibly sore just sitting at rest.  I had bruises.  The muscle from under my arm across my chest was in agony and I couldn’t take a deep breath.  I found myself moaning in pain without realizing it.

 

I thought I would see if I could feel any immediate relief or results from doing this session on the Lounge.

 

Well, I fell asleep.  I wouldn’t have thought I would.

I noticed myself getting goosebumps on my arms and legs again during the session, which I thought was interesting because I was thinking about it being from the sound and vibration as I wasn’t cold.

 

The next thing,  I woke up because the sound and vibration had stopped.

 

My muscle pain isn’t completely gone; but it is a lot less severe than it was when I laid down on the Lounge.    I went to bed.

 

The next morning, I noticed my bruises had spots of yellow in them which indicate healing is progressing.  Before my session, they were only black and blue.

 

My chest still hurt when I took a breath, but it was no longer a shallow breath.  I wasn’t moaning if I moved anymore.  I put a topical cream on the muscle that was the most painful (yet less than it was before my session) and went to work.

 

Later that day, I realized I was breathing better and the pain was continuing to lessen.  I know this is because of the session I did on the Lounge; as that was the only thing I had done differently for this sprain/strain.

My next session with the RestStation Lounge —

Gong Bath – Duration:  22:13m

 

I chose the gong bath because I have a gong and do group sound therapy sessions with it and other sound instruments.  I have also attended gong sessions that others have done and find them to be very calming and relaxing in general.

 

I have never had one laying on a Lounge that is vibrating to the frequencies of the Gong and sending those frequencies through my body in waves!  It was amazing!

 

I had my feet crossed.  I could feel the vibration strongly in my legs, back, and chest.  I couldn’t tell if the waves were coming up or down my body just that they were infusing me.

 

At one point, all the hair on my body was standing on end.  This often happens at higher sound vibrations and frequencies when you get this ‘cold’ feeling.  You’re not really cold just having an energetic shift in your vibrational resonance pattern.

 

This session was very relaxing and yet clearing at the same time.  I felt like I had been washed clean before heading to bed.

 

A very different feeling than when I am doing a Gong Bath where I am playing the gong.  Or when I am receiving a Gong Bath from someone else.  Then you are surrounded and awash with the sound and frequencies.  But it doesn’t feel the same as when you are laying on something that is channeling those same frequencies and vibrations on and through your body.  It is infusing you on a cellular level and working it’s way out.

 

I believe that we all resonate to a specific frequency anyway; as do our organs and cells.  This will attune you to the higher vibrational frequencies of the gong.

 

So hard to describe to someone who hasn’t experienced it.

Are you ready to try it out yet?

My next session with the RestStation Lounge–

Energize and Recharge – Duration 30:08m

 

First, it helped to calm me down.  That was not what I expected.  There were some very soothing sounds and vibrations.

 

I’d done this session before quite awhile ago and it felt very different to me now.  Of course, I’m different now.

 

When the session was over, I realized I wasn’t sure if I was energized and needed a little longer to discover if I actually was…

 

An hour later …

 

OMG!  Energizer bunny!!  I got so much accomplished today and even went out with friends tonight to celebrate a birthday with a dinner party.

 

Usually after a day full of work and chores, I’m pretty beat at night and can’t seem to get the energy to get dressed and go out.  Not the case tonight after my session on the Lounge.

 

I didn’t feel energized immediately after, which was unusual and why I wanted to give it a little time to see how I actually felt.

 

This is a great way to start your day.  Or a great way to give you a boost after work.  I’ve even used this session after working all day to give me the energy to go out at night or to work on other things at night.

 

It is perfect when you need an energy lift.  It is on my daily and/or weekly list as needed.  It’s a wonderful feeling to know that I can re-energize whenever I am tired and haven’t finished my day or commitments.

 

Even if it is to go food shopping or some other chores after working all day.  You know the feeling when you just want to kick off your shoes, and chill out?  Well, now I do it on the RestStation Lounge and take 30 minutes to re-energize for what I have to do next.  In just a short time, I’m ready to go again.

 

My Journey as a Sound Therapist with the RestStation Lounge 12/29/17

My next session with the RestStation Lounge was Etheric Sweep – Duration:  48:09

 

I just had the most amazing experience and session with the RestStation Lounge.  Etheric Sweep.

 

First, there was no vibration to speak of in the Lounge.  I almost went to figure out why and realized etheric meant energy field.

 

I never gave crossing my feet another thought.  This was definitely a sound attunement, a caress of spirit and a reminder of all that you are in the midst of the chaos.

 

I soared on the sound.  I literally felt personally serenaded by the violins and enticed into a journey of discovery.  I was enfolded and encased in the power and the frequency of the sounds as the tones soothed my spirit and enlivened my heart.

 

Some brought specific people to mind and I looked at those relationships from a place of love and gratitude and Blessings.

 

I felt every pore of my skin and cell in my body as it began to resonate to a different frequency of love.

 

My entire energy field was loved and given peace.  What a wonderful feeling to let go of my day and come back to myself!

I will do this session again tomorrow and see if it has the same effect on me as it did this evening.

WOW!!!!!

My Journey as a Sound Therapist with the RestStation Lounge

12/28/17

My next session with the RestStation Lounge after being away from it for two weeks.  First, I’ll say that I felt the effects within 3 days of not being on the Lounge.  Muscles that I had released tension from were tense again and I had limited range of motion in my neck.

 

I decided to do the Hypothyroid to give my metabolism a jump-start during the busy holiday season.

 

It was late at night when I did this sound session.  I crossed ankles left over right.  I could feel the vibration in my thyroid and throat chakra.  It was also running up my arms from where my hands were placed palm down on the Lounge.   The vibration traveled down my legs to my knees but didn’t seem to go lower

 

]It felt really long when it was only 20M.  At one point, I bent my knees and put my feet on the Lounge because I know my whole body can be treated on the points on my feet.  At one time, I had the thought this might not be the best session to do before going to bed.

 

I was thinking about a weight-loss treatment for folks with hypothyroidism; and what I would accompany the session with to take it to a whole person treatment.

 

I was thinking about the person who might want to come once a week for a session for weight loss – either man or woman.  The session I would do in conjunction with this is for the lymph system; which will help with water retention and blockages in the emotional body.

 

Together with the thyroid treatment, it is a powerful combination to treat the physical and emotional aspects of weight gain, helplessness, the lymph drainage and stimulation of the thyroid gland.
