Delving a Little Further into Sound Healing
I have decided to go a little further on the topic of sound healing. You are probably wondering - what does this have to do with auditioning? Auditioning is a very rough process. We are constantly told “thank you” and putting ourselves out there. Pursuing a career on the stage is not an easy lifestyle. That is why people end up in drugs or with a therapist or trying crazy, holistic practices to get back to a healthy and positive mind frame.
Sound healing is one of those weird things you can experiment with - it doesn’t cost a thing and it’s easy to do.
I first experimented with sound healing when I was in Florida earlier this year. I had this awful injury and was a bit depressed. I couldn’t exercise very easily and I had to act like everything was okay. I had to because it was my job. Correction, what I do is more than “just a job.” This is what I truly love to do. I was swimming a lot as a way to keep myself in shape and stay off my feet. Underwater, I would make sounds to express and let out what I was dealing with. If any outsider hurt what sounds I was making, they would have jumped into laughter. But you know what? It helped. Sound healing can do many things. In this situation, it helped me release the tension. It was a way to let out all this negative energy trapped in my body. In the end, I would leave that pool in a lighter, more positive outlook on things. It helped.
I am not an expert on sound healing, but if you are interested, I suggest exploring it a little. It may help you get through some rough times.
