Doing so by approaching the client by means of touch or untouched raised above the body a few inches, to activate the natural healing process of the patients body and restore physical and emotional well-being.

Group Sound Healing and Channeled Meditation
Group Sound Healing and Channeled Meditation
Sound is vibration that touches every part of our physical being. Sound is not only heard through our ears but through every atom, every cell, and every molecule in our bodies.
Resonant vibration, rhythms and tones balance brain hemispheres, stress levels, and even tension in body tissues and cells that have fallen into dis-ease or dis-harmony. The use of tuned, deep-vibration instruments such as crystal bowls during healing and meditation can balance these dissonant frequencies and bring them back into harmony. Music and chanting have been used for thousands of years to heal and energize the mind, body and emotions.

The founding owner of Zen~Yum Lifestyle, Shelly Ritenour, believes group interaction in setting your intentions to be healing as well as rewarding. Using this mindset she practices this activity using rocks, whether in guiding her yoga classes or simply around the dinner table with family during the holidays.
Selecting a rock to then focus on its word and the ways in which it can benefit your life in wellness or perhaps sheds light on needing some attention to yourself or another.
Most often, Shelly finds when one is given a word to focus on, either hand-chosen or selecting randomly from a box, that person finds themselves experiencing an unexpected awakening. For instance... a rock saying LAUGH. This rock, when chosen, poses the most difficulty in searching for a deeper meaning. Silence fills the room when it is their turn to share. The leader steps in to guide with a few open questions:
How does it feel to laugh?
When you laugh, does it change your mood, perhaps another's nearby?
Can you just burst out laughing without a purpose?
Did you know laughter exercises are used as therapy? In yoga too as a diaphragm exercise?
It releases feel good Endorphin hormones too.
Group exercises such as these are invaluable and often overlooked by many when it comes to the holistic and healing benefits they have to offer. This is just one practice of many that Shelly likes to incorporate into her daily guided Vinyasa Yoga classes!
