SAN RAFAEL, CA, USA, April 18, 2024 \/EINPresswire.com<\/a>\/ — New Living Expo (www.newlivingexpo.com<\/a>) has been showcasing cutting edge holistic and natural health options for decades, and offers the easiest way to for the public to explore options like sound healing for the first time, or to connect with practitioners they already know and have worked with.<\/p>\n Sound healing is an ancient wellness practice for healing, relaxation, and self-care. A sound healing session usually involves lying down in a cozy and comfortable setting, closing your eyes, and focusing on sounds made by music instruments like chimes, gongs, and \u201csinging\u201d Tibetan bowls. It has evolved (as studied by the science of Cymatics) to include hi tech devices that are coded to vibrational sequences specific to a wide variety of pain, stress and disease issues.<\/p>\n \u201cThe primary goal for me with participation in New Living Expo is to expand awareness of the field with both the public and share ideas and new information within the niche field of sound healing and therapy,\u201d says David Gibson, one of the best-known sound healing practitioners and teachers in the Bay Area and a presenter at the Expo this weekend. \u201cWe work to foster communication and collaboration between attendees, sound practitioners, researchers and institutions in addition to building bridges with the mainstream medical community.\u201d<\/p>\n Gibson, who is the Director of The Globe Institute in San Francisco and the producer of his own specialized conference (https:\/\/www.globesoundhealingconference.com<\/a>) on the subject, points out that many benefits of sound healing are supported by scientific research. For example, a study published in the Journal of Evidence-Based Medicine in 2016 found that an hour of sound therapy reduced tension, anger, fatigue and depressed mood in participants (https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC5871151\/<\/a>).<\/p>\n Gibson says that specific modalities in vibration and sound have proven effective for working on specific issues including chronic pain, disease, ADD\/ADHD, autism, PTSD, depression, anxiety, grief, dementia, brain injuries, schizophrenia, and cancer. <\/p>\n Grammy-nominated recording artist, author and sound healing expert Steven Halpern (https:\/\/www.stevenhalpernmusic.com<\/a>) is another longtime participant who is presenting this year, and who comes at the sound niche from the point of view of a musician, performer, and composer. The Los Angeles Times acknowledged Halpern as \u201ca founding father of New Age music\u201d who launched a \u201cquiet revolution\u201d in modern instrumental music that focused more on creating harmony, coherence and balance rather than as mere entertainment.<\/p>\n \u201cWhat\u2019s great about events like New Living is that for many I encounter at the show, this might be their first real exposure to sound healing as a medium for better wellness,\u201d says Halpern. \u201cWe have a real chance to introduce this to people and have a really positive impact on their lives.\u201d<\/p>\n His landmark brainwave biofeedback studies beginning 50 years ago demonstrated the ability of his music to create effortless brainwave balancing and integration of body, mind and spirit, just by listening at home or at the office. Halpern says listeners report positive outcomes for stress reduction, sleep deficiency, ADD\/ADHD, meditation and psychedelic assisted therapy with a trained therapist.<\/p>\n \u201cWhen the first (Whole Life) expos began back in 1978, I was the first sound healer to present information about the healing potential of sound and music,\u201d Halpern remembers. \u201cBack then, mainstream media and the general public did not understand what brainwaves, human energy fields, and chakras were, much less why they were important for our optimal health; now millions more know. My presentation at New Living this year will give attendees specific coaching and strategies to choose and use healing music, as well as simple ways To find out more about the presentations by Gibson, Halpern and other sound healing experts, go to https:\/\/newlivingexpo.com\/schedule\/<\/a>.
