Sound Healing Courses
3-Day Sound Healing Therapy Courses with Madan Yoga
Available all year round!
Madan Yoga is offering 3-Day Sound Bowl Courses (about 10 hours) in Pokhara, Nepal, for interested yogis to dive deep into this ancient art of healing.
A sound bowl is a metallic bowl made from special alloy. It is also called Dhwani Patra in Sanskrit and Nepali. Its sound is produced either by striking the surface or stroking the bowl rim with a special wooden stick. Little is known about the origins of the sound bowls and hardly any written material has been transmitted. It is certain that sound bowls were widespread in eastern Tibet and the neighboring countries such as Nepal and India. The ancient bowls have been used for different healing purposes through monks and shamans for hundreds of years - and even in today's time, we know sound bowls primarily for sound therapy of the body and mind. Singing bowls create sounds that can induce a deep state of calmness, peace and relaxation that naturally facilitates entry into a meditative level. From the first strike or rub, the sounds cancel out external disturbances and help the body to self-generate an influx of positive energy and thoughts. Sound bowls are an essential aid to meditation and can be found in temples, monasteries and meditation halls around the world. They have been used in meditation and yoga for centuries.
Through the vibrations of the sound bowl, it is possible to increase the activity of alpha and beta waves in the brain and to pleasantly relax the activity of the autonomic nervous system. At the physical level, the vibration is known to stimulate the blood vessels, lymphs, nerves, veins and muscles, allowing the opening of blockages and loosening of tensed body parts. The sound bowl’s effectiveness to increase well-being and good health has been studied from both spiritual as well as scientific points of views. Medical professionals from around the world have tested the therapeutic effectiveness of sound bowls in hospitals and therapy centres with positive results.
