The Use of Sound Healing with Patients Undergoing Cancer Treatment
Mitchell L. Gaynor MD
This workshop will use the sounds of metal and quartz crystal singing bowls with guided meditation, imagery, and chants, to help you create a harmony within. This harmony allows you to experience inner silence. Silence is not, as commonly believed, the absence of sound. Rather it is like an empty vessel that allows you to behold and connect with your own divine essence, which is the source of healing and well-being. These are the techniques that have benefited thousands of patients over the last 15 years.
