As a result of my shamanic initiation in 2024 I felt called to explore the benefits of sound healing, feeling like this would benefit the families I work with as well as myself and colleagues.

I was a little anxious to begin but have found the most brilliant teacher and Neil (www.neilchristey.com/bookings) has supported me to find my musical voice and my own unique musicality, I am loving it!

Sound healing can have profound effects on the nervous system, helping to restore balance and reduce stress and the courageous families we support and hope to continue to support in the future would certainly benefit from this.

When exposed to soothing sounds the brain waves begin to slow down, this shift is what begins to calm the nervous system and allow people to reach a deep state of relaxation and restoration impacting directly on the flight-fight-freeze-flop response that we know lives daily with the children, teens and adults who work with us.

Sound healing can create harmony within the body and encourages self – regulation, emotional stability and an overall sense of wellbeing making it a valuable tool for the nervous system, health and stress management.

Watch this space to hear more about how Steps to Connection will incorporate this new learning into what we offer our families.
