The Harmony of the Spheres - Workshop

Our sound therapy workshops are in-depth exploration of the concept of music and sound, its integral role in our life since ancient times, and understanding it through the lenses of harmony on micro (individual) and (macro) universal scale. 

There is an intricate relationships between music, sound, tones, voices and our state of mind, mood - feelings and emotions and overal health and wellbeing. We will trace the evolution of musicial ideas from ancient traditions. 

Central to our workshop is the notion of musica contemplativa, an ability to immerse oneself profoundly in the ambience of sound. 

Throughout the workshop, you will discover cosmic harmonics - how musical scale is interconnected with our Solar System and with our bodies (Hormones/Chakras and Planets as Tuning Instruments); how music can be embodied, and how to bring the ideas of harmony of the spheres into everyday life. 

Music and sound act as a bridge between our Inner Selves and the world. We will explore how different musical modes resonate with the different emotional states and invoke variety of thoughts, sensations, imagery, behaviours. 

This inner journey includes self-discovery in a state of deep relaxation and attunement to the music, guided by the facilitators, with the archetypes and symbolism of colors, notes, elements and cycles.

By the conclusion of this workshop, you will possess a mindful understanding of the significance of music in everyday life - as a medium of reflection and creation. 

You will be able to explore on your own how do you reflect and create  'cosmic harmony' in your everyday life through resonance, and how certain music and sounds can help you attune to the best outcomes you wish to experience.  

This insightful and transformative journey enhances your knowledge, understanding, connection, coherence and integrity - through the art of music and sound, and the Harmony of the Spheres.

Introduction Layout

Your Body is a Cosmic Symphony, not a hospital, not a victim of germs. 

A reminder that your body is not a fragile jar waiting to break. 

It is more like a cosmic orchestra, where each instrument is a sphere or a vortex, known as chakra. 

It is a symphony asking you to pick up the baton and conduct.

When the flute plays off key, or the drum bangs too loudly, the music is off-beat and in disonance / diharmony. 

The orchestra itself is not broken, it needs tuning.

Our bodies are not designed to be or get sick, our lives are not here to be in a state of conflict, opression, supression, threat or danger. When one or more instruments are not playing in harmony within our system - we and our lives are off-balance. 

The Cosmic Orchestra

Root Chakra / Saturn / Brown-Red / Earth element / Do : bass and/or drum player

It is grounding sound, bringing a sense of safety, solidity and stability. 

If we worry too much about our survival, it gets sort-of muddy. 

Sacral Chakra / Jupiter / Orange-Violet / Water elelement / Re : saxophone

It is an expansive and creative energy. 

Guilt and shame make it squeak. 

Solar Plexus Chakra / Mars / Yellow-Red / Fire elelemtn / Me : trumpet

It is a self-empowering energy, shining outward with courage and confidence in the body. 

Hide your power, and the trumpet hides too. Digestive issues? That’s the trumpet sulking. Shine anyway.

Heart Chakra / Venus / Earth / Different Shades of Green and Blue / Air elelemnt / Fa : violin /guitar

All-encompassin love, care, respect. Cooperation. 

Guard yourself too much, and it goes silent. Open it by loving something: anything, daily. Love is not picky.

Throat Chakra / Mercury/Venus / Blue-Rainbow / All elements / Sol : flute

Self-expression and truth on the mind level. 

Swallow your truth, and the flute cracks. Keep it open by humming, singing, and speaking with care.

Third Eye Chakra/ Moon/ Mercury/ Indygo-Navy Blue-Silver/ Plasma elelement / La : piano / the harp

Intuitive faculties, sixth sense, vision, imagination. 

Ignore your intuition, and the piano goes out of tune. Trust the nudges, watch the synchronicities.

Crown Chakra / Sun / Golden-Sparkling White/ Spiritual element / Si : choir

Humleness and surrender to the spiritual realm. Enlightement. Awakaning. Bliss. 

Try to control everything, and the choir walks out. Keep it open by surrendering to something bigger.

Breathing through the spheres

Imagine each one as a beautiful glowing, sparkiling sphere in motion, a torus. 

Inhale harmony into it, exhale disharmony out of it. See the colors, feel it spinning in coherence, more and more. 

When the energy flows, the orchestra plays in perfect harmony, and your health accelerates like a tune finally sounding right.

Tune the instruments, breathe them alive, and dance/create with the music of your own Energy (Body-Soul-Mind-Spirit).
