Voicing the Sound Eternal
Transformational Power of Sound and Consciousness
People continually seek assistance on how to come into balance on emotional, mental, and spiritual levels. Holistic energy practitioner and Reiki Master Melissa Higginbotham now shows how to combine a focus on consciousness with toning and sound tools to spark spiritual healing and self-transformation on all levels. What makes Voicing the Sound Eternal unique is its emphasis on partnering with consciousness. This book teaches you to go to the next level, combining consciousness and sound for healing on a deeper level. The combination of the two is what will propel you beyond what others currently teach in sound healing. Learn to co-create with crystal bowls, percussion instruments, and color and how to develop the body as a resonating chamber. Be shown the healing power of words and encryption and how to bring invocation into a session. It is time to expand the awareness of you as Divine Source in order to stabilize wholeness. Learn to ride the waves of sound and consciousness and spark self-transformation.
