The use of vibrational healing modalities and sound instruments activates the relaxation response to calm the mind, relax the body to release emotions and nourish your soul. Sound healing works by activating the parasympathetic nervous system—the opposite of fight/flight.

This modality helps with chronic stress and anxiety, muscle tension, sleep disorders, stuck emotions, high blood pressure and so much more.
It is also known to improve creativity, your senses and cultivate more body awareness.

Join Jeanine Chayka, the owner of Inspired Vibrations, as she offers a group session of Sound and Vibrational Healing to heal the mind, body and spirit.

She will use a variety of sound tools such as crystal and Himalayan bowls, chimes and drums to assist in activation the relaxation response to calm your mind, relax your body and balance your nervous system. It helps to release stress, emotions and nourish the soul.
