Why Sound, Music, and Your Voice Are Powerful Healing Tools

At Music For Healing, we urge people to access their voices as instruments. Sadly, most people are afraid of using their own voices.

We use it unconsciously when we stub our toe --we make a sound. When we hammer our thumb, we automatically make a sound.

What this does when you automatically react to pain by making these sounds is it releases the pain because the self-created sound is so effective and powerful for getting rid of the pain.

Now, you have the opportunity to learn how to make sounds consciously using your own voice. It is easy. We all tend to make things harder than they really are.
