Mountain Bear Sounds

I offer 1:1 sound healing and group sessions using a variety of sound healing instruments including Tibetan singing bowls, gongs, the digeridoo, the shruti box, rattles, rain sticks and drums. But perhaps for me, the most powerful instrument I use is my voice.

 

I invite you to listen to this short taster track of vibrational, healing sounds as you read through this page. Feel into your body as it plays, notice where you experience it in your body, without judgement, and how that is for you in this moment.

 

How sound healing works

Sound healing works in numerous and subtle ways. Whilst everyone hears the same sounds emanting from the instruments and my voice, I love how it touches and affects everyone differently. Some quite lightly but the majority very deeply, some extraordinarily so.

Sound creates a safe container for the space to open up and out, allowing healing to take place, and in the stillness pushes each person back into their true self, their uncontaminated true essence, where aspects of acceptance, love and bliss, and a range of other positive qualities and properties harness the power of the session further, deepening and enriching their experience of their own innate natural presence and nature.

Everything in the universe is energy, just all operating at different frequencies. Sound has deeper intuitive wisdom and knowing way beyond what the mind can comprehend and helps to align/attune our internal landscape.

Sound, like breath (and sound is created on the exhalation, the out-breath) brings us directly into the present moment. That “now” moment is the only space where healing energies can work-not in the past or imaginings around the future.

Sound heals on all the levels of the energy bodies (physical, emotional, mental and spiritual,astral,casual and pranic planes). The subtler bodies have the effect of healing the more denser energy bodies, sometimes even before any physical symptoms have manifested.   

A key tenet behind sound healing is that the body is made up of energy that vibrates at different frequencies-as a whole and part of the collective, for instance, different organs. Illness is caused by disharmony within the body, mind and emotions.

Sound healing helps to bring the mind, emotions and body back into a state of homeostasis, balance and harmony, both within and without, and restores and realigns our nervous system, making one more in tune with spirit and helping to increase one’s life force, energy and creative flow.

TESTIMONIALS

“I HAVE EXPERIENCED SOUND BATHS WITH MOUNTAIN BEAR ON TWO OCCASIONS. BOTH TIMES HAVE BEEN A SENSORY DELIGHT WHICH ALLOWED ME TO DISCONNECT FOR A WHILE AND GET LOST IN THE SOUNDS AROUND ME. THE DIFFERENT FREQUENCY OF SOUNDS TAKES ME ON A JOURNEY OF BOTH THE COMFORTABLE AND UNCOMFORTABLE. I WAS LEFT FEELING GROUNDED, CONNECTED AND AT PEACE. I WOULD CERTAINLY RECOMMEND IT TO ANYBODY, ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO REQUIRE STILLNESS AND CONNECTION.”

“I FOUND ANSWERS TO SOME PRACTICAL QUESTIONS THAT WERE RELEVANT IN MY LIFE AT THE TIME OF MY SOUND BATH WITH GILES. DURING THE PERIOD OF STILLNESS AT THE END OF THE SESSION I FOUND MYSELF OBSERVING MY REALLY DEEP BREATHS THAT CAME ABSOLUTELY NATURALLY. IT WAS LIKE ALL THE CHATTER IN MY HEAD HAD STOPPED AND I FELT WARM AND COMFORTABLE AND CONTENT TO OBSERVE MY BREATHING, NOTHING MORE. I LITERALLY COULD HAVE STAYED THERE FOREVER. IT WAS EXQUISITE. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND GILES, HIS CONNECTION TO SOURCE IS STRONG AND UNCOMPROMISED.”

— Kate

“I HAVE BEEN GOING TO GILES’ SOUND BATHS SINCE HE FIRST STARTED OFFERING THEM. THEY ARE HONESTLY THE BEST I’VE BEEN TO AND I WOULDN’T CONSIDER GOING ANYWHERE ELSE NOW. I LOVE THE MIX OF HIS VOICE AND THE INSTRUMENTS, EVERY TIME IT IS DIFFERENT AND ALWAYS SO POWERFUL. THE ENVIRONMENT IS VERY WELCOMING AND COMFORTABLE AND THE INVITATION TO STAY AFTERWARDS FOR TEA AND KHEER (WHICH IS AWESOME!) IS SO LOVELY AND GROUNDING. I AM SO GRATEFUL TO GILES FOR OFFERING THIS BEAUTIFUL HEALING EXPERIENCE EVERY MONTH.”

“I HAVE BEEN ON SOME PERSONAL SOUND BATHS AND GROUP SESSIONS WITH GILES. HIS SOUND CLASSES ARE THE BEST I HAVE BEEN TO. THE DEEP VIBRATIONS FROM HIS AMAZING VOICE AND VARIOUS BEAUTIFUL INSTRUMENTS PUT YOU IN A DEEP, RELAXING STATE AND SOMETIMES EVEN SLEEP. THE SMALL GROUP SESSIONS ARE SET IN A WARM, COMFORTABLE AND COSY ROOM WITH CANDLELIGHT, CREATING A PERFECT ATMOSPHERE FOR ‘LETTING GO’ AND ENJOYING THE STILLNESS WITHIN. A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE TO BE REPEATED OVER AND OVER AGAIN. THANK YOU GILES FOR SHARING YOUR GIFT WITH US.”

“I FOUND GILES TO BE A GIFTED CONDUIT WHO BRIDGED A CONNECTION BETWEEN US AND THAT WHICH IS GREATER THAN US. HIS WHOLE BEING OPENED UP TO PRODUCE SUCH MOVING OVERTONE CHANTS, SOUNDS THAT WERE CRAFTED WITH THE HELP OF AN ARRAY OF BEAUTIFUL INSTRUMENTS. THIS INTUITIVE JOURNEY TRANSPORTED ME INTO A DEEP STATE OF RELAXATION THAT I’VE SELDOM EXPERIENCED. I HAVE NO DOUBT THE WARM, OPEN-HEARTED RECEPTION, THE COMFORTABLE, INTIMATE AND CAREFULLY PREPARED SPACE AND THE BEAUTIFUL CLOSING OF THE SESSION CONTRIBUTED TO THE DEEP SENSE OF BELONGING. THANK YOU SO MUCH GILES FOR SHARING YOUR PRECIOUS GIFTS WITH US.”

— Jessica

“WITH THE BEAUTIFULLY CALM SPACE FOR THE SOUND BATH INSTANTLY STARTING TO RELAX MY BUSY MIND I SETTLED DOWN TO GILES’ ENTRANCING CHANTING. I WAS GUIDED ON A JOURNEY TO A PLACE OF DEEPEST SERENITY BY THE MAGICAL SOUNDS AND VIBRATIONS OF THE SINGING BOWLS HARMONISING WITH EACH OTHER. AT THE END OF MY JOURNEY I FELT UTTERLY AT ONE WITH THE WORLD. I LEFT THE SESSION ON A HIGH AND I HAVE ALREADY BEEN BACK AND WILL RETURN FOR MORE! THANK YOU.”
