Harmonizing with the Universe
The Benefits of Singing
Singing is an act of vibration. It takes music from the realm of the unformed and moves it from within to without.
Singing is an act of vibration. It takes music from the realm of the unformed- whether that is in your mind or from that magical space of inspiration- and moves it from within to without. From the first breath singing moves the energy in a circular way inside your body. As the breath fills your lungs, it brushes against the second and third chakras?he centers of creation and honoring self and others. Instead of merely exhaling, pushing the air past the fourth and fifth chakras where heart charka and the center of will and intention reside, singing engages both the heart and mind. Sound vibrations from vocal chords resonate in the sinus cavities, filling the head with motion and sound while the brain lights up with the processing of the mathematics of music. This marriage of activities brings the third eye into play and opens the door for inspiration from the crown chakra before sending the sound out into the world.

Once the vibration begins, it is sustained with each note, moving throughout your body and the space around you. This can help you to harmonize your frequency with the world and with the divine. The use of the voice can bring about catharsis, a cleansing from the expression of emotion, which is why we feel better after singing certain types of songs. All of this occurs even if we are not conscious of what we are singing, but when we really connect with an intention, the power of the voice and music together are powerful tools in creation.

Even if you are not a singer by nature or talent, you are not left out. If you have a voice, it is your birthright to celebrate life with song. It doesn’t matter if you don’t feel you have a nice voice. Chanting or humming, singing solo or with others, your voice is yours to enjoy. Whether you sing along to the radio or use vocalization as part of your meditation time, singing and harmonizing are healing activities that bring your body’s vibrations into alignment with the universe.”

This video has a great explanation of how EFT works to erase old programs from our inner circuitry. Works with trauma but also with other memories and beliefs that get in the way of optimal health, and creating a life you love to live!

Peg and I will be going to camp again this June to participate in Elements of Enlightenment’s annual conference. This is three days of fun, laughter, rest, rejuvenation and learning not to mention a beautiful environment, great food and fun activities! The conference was a huge success last year and it is sure to fill up fast this year as more people hear about it from last year’s participants. So, we are letting people know about it way ahead so you can claim your space! The link below will tell you more about the place and the details—more information will be added as time goes on and the complete program is set.

Using a heart based focus connects you to yourself and to others—-really, not just in concept! Too often we learn a concept and think that it suffices to be of benefit in our lives. It takes a method and a practice to make the concept come alive within ourselves and our lives. Today’s radio show has two heart based meditations for you. You can use the link from the previous blog post to go to the show. Enjoy!

How does gratitude affect your body-mind, health, inner well-being, prosperity and relationships? How can you shift habitual non-beneficial mind states to embrace the energy of the heart-mind to clear stress, create more abundance and harmony and bring balance into your life?

Join us at 10 A.M. EST  on Monday, Nov. 29, 2010 as we discuss the answers to these questions.

Take a moment out the busyness and let your heart be touched and filled with gratitude, peace, love and beauty….Happy Thanksgiving !
