about us

Reiki is a Japanese technique that is used to heal physical and mental trauma as well as support mental clarity and spiritual well-being. In Japanese, the word "rei" refers to a higher intelligence that permeates all living and nonliving entities and guides the inherent functioning of the universe. The word "ki" refers to the nonphysical energy that flows through everything that is alive, including plants, animals, and human beings—because of this, ki is also often called "life force energy," and is known as qi or chi from other lineages. The combination of these two words is what defines reiki as "spiritually guided life-force energy.” 

The Sound Within Us utilizes crystal and Tibetan singing bowls, tuning forks, drums, rattles, chimes, and a rainstick for vibrational sound healing therapies and biofield tuning. The biofield is the subtle energy field that surrounds the human body. It is also known as an aura field and emits a vibrational frequency, which can be experienced by some as colors and/or geometric shapes. Most spiritual energy healers can detect and interpret the information in a person's biofield (aura). 

Sound healing is the act of using vibrations in order to relax your mind and body and is used to correct frequency patterns that are out of alignment. In this state of relaxation, the body can then begin to heal and restore itself.

Everything that moves vibrates, from the smallest molecule to the universe itself. We may not perceive it, but every atom, molecule, cell, gland, and organ of the human body absorbs and emits sound. Scientific studies show that sound can produce changes in the autonomic, immune, endocrine, and neuropeptide systems. 

The vibrations from the tuning forks and crystal singing bowls align the chakras (energy centers in the body - see below) and can help reduce stress, pain, anxiety, and insomnia, promote healthy blood pressure, improve blood circulation, reduce your respiratory rate, promote deep relaxation, develop self-awareness and creativity, improve learning, and clarify personal values. 

  Chakra is a Sanskrit word that means “spinning wheel of light.” Chakras are energy centers that overlie major nerve plexuses and organs in the body. They have their own unique colors and frequencies, spin at their own particular velocities, and are associated with subtle energy fields in the aura.

There are seven main chakras in the physical body that interact with the auric field, endocrine system, and lymphatic system. The auric field is outside the body and both the endocrine and lymphatic systems are inside the body. The endocrine and lymphatic systems help the body feed in good energy and dispose of unwanted energy.

Your body is unique in its requirements for health, so it is vital to understand the energies at play both within your body and within your energy field. The chakra system has immense value for personal growth and use in diagnosis and healing. Chakras transmit information from the aura and represent a “blueprint” of the body; they also hold information about past pain and trauma, as imprints in the auric field. These affect our emotional and physical health through their connection to the endocrine glands that regulate human behavior. 

For many reasons, you can block the interconnecting auric pathways of light, and “disease” will result. Chakra healing helps clear the pathways so that positive energy can pass through the auric filaments and nurture your physical body. When you are distanced from healthy food, air, and water, a separation begins that disconnects you from the planet and disharmony results. This disharmony can lead to disease and ill health. 

It is important to find strategies to keep yourself healthy when modern living starts to compromise your immune system.
