USA, ANDOVER, MA - Shamanic Sound Healing, Mitch Nur, PhD, Circles of Wisdopm, 90 Main St., 23 Aug 2013
Shamanic Sound Therapy is a new transcultural sound based psychotherapy based upon the worldwide use in indigenous cultures, to produce extraordinary states of consciousness that can induce a transpersonal experience. The use of sound or music plays an important role in producing altered states of consciousness in shamanistic rituals. This experience offers a unique opportunity for integration, and can lead to not only a new awareness, but an enhanced well being of the mind/body complex. This is much more than a shamanic journey which most westerners are familiar with, but an enhanced first hand experience incorporating acousmatic theory combined with a indigenous sound approach. Created by Mitch Nur, PhD who is one of North America's leading sound therapists and teachers. He has trained hundreds of students worldwide in the use of indigenous instruments to facilitate transformation, including Dr. Mitchell L. Gaynor, the bestselling author of " The Healing Power of Sound." Many of today's sound healing teachers throughout the USA have studied or trained with him. Mitch Nur, PhD has been one of North America’s leading instructors of indigenous science. His approach to shamanic studies, deals with indigenous practices and insights from a global examination. His direct experience is through Himalayan, Tuvan, South American, Mexican, and Native American teachers. Couple this with his decades old studies of Bön and Buddhist philosophy, merges the alchemy of compassionate teachings of the East, with the ancient and wise indigenous ones. For the past 2 decades, he has presented two shamanic training curriculums for the public, Global Indigenous Shamanic Studies: an examination of ancestral insights and practices, and Between 2 Worlds. This merger has enabled Mitch to develop a new sound based psychotherapy that not only provides a shamanic entry point for critical journeying, but a direct stimulation of the parasympathic nervous system. People suffering from ADD, depression, sleep disorders, Spectrum, etc., MAY find insights and understand relief from these conditions. Do not however, substitute this therapy for traditional medical treatment. This compliment’s all forms of traditional therapy today, and could help resolve many issues, the others do not. Direct experience is the best method of determination. Sessions are 90 minutes in length, and are scheduled by appointment. Please wear loose fitting, comfortable clothing, no jewelry, and please bring a bottle of water.
