It may seem a little outside the box and New Age, but vibrational
healing through sounds and music has been used for centuries.
Kelly MacInnis, of Creation Songs in Longmont, says while still
considered an alternative therapy, vibrational healing should be
considered for something as simple as a common cold, eliminating or
at least minimizing stress or emotional trauma, or even adjunct with
other therapies for something as serious as cancer. The process is a
noninvasive, touch free, drug free, inexpensive and simple method of
stimulating the body and mind from the inside out.
MacInnis offers vibrational healing through crystal bowls that are
used along with meditation. The bowls offer a physical feeling of
meditation, while the sound and different frequencies interrupt the
brain's normal processing. As little as 15 minutes can make you
feel better, simply by eliminating undue stress and offering a more
relaxed state of mind and body, he says. "The bowls aren't healing you, they are putting you in
a state to heal yourself," MacInnis says. "The bowls are
giving you the ability to relax yourself into better health.
Sometimes we need to stop focusing on the problem to find the
solution." MacInnis knows that Western medicine has its place and he does not
promote vibrational healing to cure things such as cancer, but he
does believe it can help. "What it comes down to is your
attitude," he says. "If you believe it is something
that is going to help it will, the more you believe the better." As a culture today, people are always on overdrive and busy.
MacInnis promotes stepping back and trying to live in the moment
instead of internalizing and over thinking everything that
happens throughout the day and over a lifetime. This can be hard
as many of these actions are learned responses, but eventually will
help a person lead a more healthy life emotionally and physically
because they will not have undue stress or emotion in their lives.
"If you come you can feel it the first time," he says.
"What happens afterwards is up to you." While mediation takes time to learn and master, vibrational
healing with the crystal bowls can help a person enter the state
needed. "The sound gives your body circulation to heal and the
bowls give you the opportunity to change the way you think and act.
Healing is where you find it," he says. "The extent to
which you can heal yourself is up to you." Multimedia & Check it Out Learn more about vibration healing at www.longmontmagazine.com. Get more information at www.creation-songs.com, or
