Frequencies as a Form of Medicine: Meditation + Sound Bath at Open Doors Yoga in Hingham, MA

Roll out that yoga mat, and settle in for some mediation + sound work, a 2,500-year-old wellness practice. Being immersed in sound like this gently reverses the autonomic nervous system, causing brain waves to move from beta - high stress - to alpha, theta, and eventually delta, in which deep relaxation occurs.

Sound waves are said to calm the nervous system and balance the ‘subtle body,’ energy that vibrates throughout the innermost layers of the body. In addition to balancing the subtle body, this holistic practice of sound bathing has also been known to work wonders for stress relief, insomnia, anxiety, chronic pain, and even depression. Some people describe it as a shift in consciousness and a chance to unplug from reality. The result of a sound bath is the calming and silencing of the constant chattering in your mind.
