What is Sound Healing

What is Sound Healing

Tell someone  that you are a sound healer, and the first question is usually ‘What’s that???‘

Sound healing is  a treatment that has been used throughout the ages as a means of bringing health and vitality back into the body, mind and spirit.

It uses pure sounds that the human voice or instruments such as the gong or himalayan singing bowl produce, to create a resonance in the body that has a healing effect.

As a sound healing practitioner, I help my clients achieve a state of calm and inner peace using the simple, yet powerful energy of sound.

Why would I need sound healing?

Maybe you are stressed or anxious or have experienced a major life event such as illness, a breakup or bereavement. 

Sometimes we simply just need to take a break, to step out of the busyness of our lives and take some time for ourselves.  A sound healing treatment or retreat is a wonderful self-care tool.

What does sound healing do?

Sound healing can help by providing a clear space to quiet your mind and assess where you are,  while the angel card readings also offer gentle guidance.

Afterwards you may feel like you have greater clarity and focus and that you sleep better.  

After spending a weekend offering mini sessions at the Mind Body Experience, here is what the people of Cork had to say about sound healing: What does Sounding Healing Do?

How does it work?

Sound resonates in the body and like an instrument being tuned, it brings back balance.  Certain sounds like the gong and drum can alter the brain waves leading to a meditative state.  This in turn calms the nervous system and lowers blood pressure and boosts immunity.

What does a Session look like?

In my 1-1 sound healing sessions and group sound baths, I take you on a journey using my voice and instruments to cut through the mind chatter and help lead you to a place where you can feel calm and safe and rested. From this place you can let go of stress, pain and resistance and you are free to explore new possibilities of being.

You lie or sit comfortably covered with a blanket and close your eyes.  That’s it! You don’t have to do anything else.  

I also use angel cards in my sessions to provide gentle guidance.

In my workshops I show you how to use your voice as a self-care tool.  It’s easy and anyone can do it!

What my clients say

 

 

Sound Bath Testimonials:

 “I LOVED the sound bath on 

Friday! The combination of your intention setting using cards, your clear and beautiful singing voice, the various sounds you  generate using different items, and the spaces of silence was wonderful. I truly appreciated being part of this event LIVE and greatly look forward to the next one!”

Scott Walker, Banff, Alberta, Canada.

“I love Claire’s sound baths. Each one I have been to has a different flavor and it’s a wonderful way to unwind, relax and receive the beautiful healing sounds”. 

Lisa B., Clonakilty, West Cork.

“Claire’s sound baths are such a special treat. It’s always exciting anticipating the wide variety of sounds and instruments she will use. Even though I’d been to a few similar sessions before Claire’s, I didn’t expect to feel so deeply affected by the sessions. There’s usually a mixture of gentle and intense sound which leaves me feeling profoundly soothed and relaxed at the end. It’s a deeply rejuvenating experience. Claire herself is so gentle and attentive you really feel like you’ve had a good pampering by the time you leave. I recommend it highly”.

Samira Branch, Clonakilty, West Cork

1-1 Sound Healing Testimonials:

‘I highly recommend Claire Barton if you’re looking for a deep shift in your life, desire to get unstuck, or feel the calling to bring more of YOU to the world! The power of Claire’s Sound Healing work took me by surprise! Part of that is Claire herself, a shiny-illuminated, wise soul, whose entire being is like a giant hug of light, the other part is her intuitive ability & the sound of her gorgeous voice (and multiple musical instruments) to shift and transform you. Sound healing with Claire is like getting an internal massage that comes with all kinds of insights. It’s a gentle process, and the results are vast. My sessions with Claire have brought peace to a particular situation in my life.’

Jaimsyne Blakely, L.A. U.S.A.

‘Thank you Claire Barton for the wonderful sound healing and angel card reading! Within the first few minutes I already felt like my ‘sphere’ cracked open and suddenly I am feeling more free in this open universe where energy flows freely. Lots of yawning to let go of so much fatigue accumulated over the years and especially since giving birth to my third baby. It’s also beautiful listening to your speaking voice (it’s so melodious!) describe the angel card reading and I love that as a mom too you understand so perfectly what I am going through right now and how powerless it can feel like during the first few months of caring for my baby. I had no idea how including my baby in my videos could be inspiring for others as well. Love the repeated message on the importance of Relaxation as well and how it is also linked to my weight’.

Bingz Huang, Singapore

I am so pleased to have taken up Claire’s sound healing sessions. On my first session, I felt a sense of relief, happiness and calm. Claire’s therapy, and I understand it varies from person to person, has had interesting effects that I have charted over the last year: I have a keener sense of hearing, that is, my ears seem more attuned to the pleasant sonority of nature and music that was perhaps lacking before, this is a pleasing side-effect! I find after a session my posture is more relaxed, less tense around the shoulders, jaw and neck and my thoughts are less jangly, especially in times of stress. Another benefit I have noted is that when I run I hold a less rigid upper body posture and my arm movement is fluid and less ‘blocked’. The pleasure of a therapy session, warmed by a little wood-fire stove and the sound instruments that Claire skilfully integrates with her voice and sometimes angel card readings, is often enhanced by the sound of the nearby sea and, on occasion, a blackbird or robin chiming in from the nearby hedgerow. I would recommend this therapy to anyone – and I have never been a ‘therapy’ person! 

Phoebe K., Cork

‘I had two sound healing sessions with Claire during a time when I was feeling highly stressed and anxious. My sessions with Claire gave me a space to access deep relaxation through her gentle and creative approach of combining voice and sound within a truly multi-sensory experience. Claire is tapping in to so much energy in the universe, and has such wisdom and insight which she gleans from so many levels. The sound healing sessions gave me a space to just be, during a time when I found that very difficult. Words cannot truly reflect what Claire offers, and so I would highly recommend that you experience it yourself’.

Mary B., West Cork

‘Before going to Claire’s sessions I felt a bit unclear. Tuned out on how I was really feeling, a lack of clarity.  I had 7 sessions with Claire and I felt a lot more focused on myself after the sessions, more aware of how I’m feeling and where I feel I’m at in the grander scheme of my life. Absolutely a lot more grounded. These sessions really grounded me.  I feel so grateful for how intuitive Claire is. Each session was just what I needed and in retrospect it was a journey of deepening. I really felt myself opening up in this time and that I was being held in a really supportive space to do that. I felt l was in a very sacred and safe space to be able to really look at my life, where I was and how I was feeling on a very real level and Claire guided that beautifully, in such a supportive and nurturing way that was so intuitive’.

D.D., Cork

After being  diagnosed with breast cancer in January, I started to have sessions with Claire to help me through this difficult time. Initially to focus on stress and fear of hospital visits, and the build up to the operation. I found Claire’s sound healing helped on so many levels, the deep meditation, the sounds of her beautiful voice and the healing tools. She is completely present with you throughout the session, and it is a wonderful safe environment to be yourself in. I would highly recommend her as I believe she helped me enormously and has a great gift to share.’

Angie, West Cork

‘It is hard to put into words the transcending quality of Claire’s sound healing work. I will try, but words are not good to describe what receiving her Sound Healing really is. Our session happened to coincide with a crucial family meeting abroad that I could not attend. This required the best energy at the start, to move the process towards a peaceful resolution for the benefit of all parties involved. Claire listened to my first description and indicated the need for a clearing of ancestral patterns and an overall harmonizing of past occurences. She started the process, first by bringing in a message. Then Sound Healing began, and for one hour, I received a truly amazing bathing of healing, with the most beautiful voice and instrumental sounds, in ways that made me feel transported to higher dimensions where I was being deeply healed, and so was all this family situation. This has been profoundly relaxing and harmonizing. Claire’s work happens at higher spheres, and certainly brings these higher sphere healing energies into our very cells and bones. Results: the family situation is evolving really well! I can’t wait to listen again to the recording of this deeply blessing sound healing session and keep thinking I want more… My deepest gratitude, Claire for this work of Higher Spheres that you bring into this world.’

Ruth, Santa Rosa, California, U.S

 

One to One Sound Healing Sessions

1 to 1 Sound Healing Sessions

 

A 1-1 session is perfect if you need time out, just a bit of space for yourself.  You might want to try something different or just want to relax and reconnect with yourself.  Maybe you would like some quality time with a loved one?

It could be you are having a tough time at the moment whether it’s through health condition, bereavement, a  difficult relationship, anxiety or stress.  

A sound healing session or a package of  sessions can help support you, making it easier to cope through these difficult times.

One of the special qualities of sound healing is that it goes beyond the conscious mind and doesn’t require someone to talk about whatever is going on for them if they don’t want to.  There is no belief required just an openness to trying something new.

I use my voice as well as a range of instruments such as gong, singing bowls and chimes which I weave into the session. I also like to pick some angel cards to enhance healing and relaxation. A typical session lasts 2 hours and involves a combination of sound healing and angel card readings.

Sound healing works very effectively online, and I love connecting with people all around the world on zoom

Sound Healing For You And Your Child

 

With changes in routine, new teachers or even a  new school, going back to school can be challenging for both parents and children.  When a child is having difficulties eg. with anxiety, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)  or autism, these challenges can be amplified and then their parents worry about them and there can be increased anxiety in the family. 

I offer sessions  for both parents and children so that everyone’s stress levels are reduced and they feel more able to cope with the trials of  everyday life.  Here are a couple of recent testimonials from a mother and son who came for sessions.

 

Sound Healing Testimonials:

‘’I took part in several one to one sound healing sessions with Claire. I found being immersed in the sound healing an intense and profoundly relaxing experience.   Afterwards I felt that the sense of calm which I gained from the session remained with me and allowed me to deal with the stress of life and young children more easily”.
A.B. Clonakilty 

“I liked listening to the different sounds. Some of them made me feel calm, some of them made me feel energised. They made me feel all different feelings”.  A.C. Clonakilty Age 9

Sound Baths

Sound Baths

A sound bath is a natural therapy that literally bathes the body in waves of sound.  No water is involved!

It’s basically a sound healing session for a group of people. 

The sounds may come from the human voice or instruments such as gong, Tibetan singing bowls or tuning forks.

Here is a taster of a sound bath. Sit or lie comfortably. Close your eyes and relax.

You can listen to more of my sound healing on youtube.  I also have sound bath recordings available for sale as mp3 downloads in my shop.

I offer sound baths in west Cork and also online using Zoom.

I can host private sound baths for 2-3 people in my sound healing cabin
or I can travel to your event and hold a sound bath.  Please contact me for further details.

Morning Sound Bath Retreat

A morning of sound healing at Long Strand, west Cork

With a maximum of 6 participants, this is a beautiful intimate session.  Weather permitting we go for a medicine walk on Long Strand beach and sound to the sea. (If it’s very wet or cold we will have a workshop in the cabin).

After that, it’s  just a few minutes walk along the road to the sound healing cabin for a cuppa and a snack.  For the sound bath, you  lie down  and soak up the sound of the ocean mixing with voice, gong  and other instruments. 

You are invited to relax away from all the cares of the world as you take a journey in sound. The gong quietens the mind, and you enter an oasis of peace. As you rest, I tone and play my singing bowls  to gently clear your chakras leaving you feeling refreshed and restored in body, mind and spirit.

After the sound bath you have an opportunity to journal and pick some angel cards.
What to bring?
Please wear comfortable clothing and bring warm or waterproof clothes for the beach (It is Ireland so you never know!)
Also you might like to bring a bottle of water and a journal.
I will provide blankets and pillows and light refreshments.
