I use a special method of energizing the brain through sound and intention by exposing clients to patterned vibrational sound from ancient Himalayan Singing Bowls (also referred to as Tibetan bowls), and other sacred sound instruments. These instruments are highly transformative and most people respond immediately.

Energy blockages are also dissolved via the sound of several large gongs which send powerful vibrations thoroughout your system initiating a detoxification.

Sessions also include Energy Balancing and guided visualization. Polarity Therapy is a comprehensive health system involving energy-based bodywork, diet, exercise and self-awareness. Scientifically, it works with the Human Energy Field, electromagnetic patterns expressed in mental, emotional and physical experience.

During our normal waking state, the normal frequency of our brain waves is that of Beta. Sound tools entrain the brain to move into the deeper Alpha and Theta brain wave frequencies that induce deep meditative and peaceful states, clarity of mind and intuition. Modern medicine can now measure and thus confirm the practice of sound as a means to heal. Vibrational Sound from Tibetan Singing Bowls has such proven results. Mitchel Gaynor, MD is the clinical professor at Weill- Cornell Medical College and founder of Gaynor Integrative Oncology in New York City. The August 2003 issue of Spirituality and Health magazine reports the success he has had treating victims of life threatening disease and those undergoing chemotherapy and side effects through sound therapy including Tibetan bowls, crystal bowls and chanting.

Dr. Gaynor states "If we accept that sound is vibration and we know that vibration touches every part of our physical being, then we understand that sound is heard not only through our ears but through every cell in our bodies. One reason sound heals on a physical level is because it so deeply touches and transforms us on the emotional and spiritual planes. Sound can redress imbalances on every level of physiologic functioning and can play a positive role in the treatment of virtually any medical disorder."

Sound healing is not a miracle but some of the reasons why the healing potential of sound is so powerful are still being researched. The Spirituality and Health magazine article states that a more holistic approach to medicine is now being embraced in medical schools such as Duke University and the University of North Carolina. These institutions have added programs that address the connection between mind, body and spirit.

We know, for example that the vibrations from the sound engages the relaxation reflex while they inhibit the stress or pain response. But there is a strong spiritual component that is at work here as well. It is the combination of both that creates healing. On a scientific level, a sound healing will normally reduce brain wave activity, slow the respiratory and heart rate. Here is a report from a San Diego based Bio- Feedback practitioner. He hooked himself up to the biofeedback machines during sessions:

"Biofeedback is a way of feeding back information to a person regarding their physiology using computer technology. Applied biofeedback began in the United States in the late 1950s. Research has indicated that individuals could gain voluntary control over several different Autonomic Nervous System functions. Biofeedback teaches self-regulation. It helps a person understand how their mind affects their body. Cardio-Respiratory Biofeedback (measured by placing electrodes on the wrists to measure heart rate and placing a breathing strain gauge around the abdomen to measure breathing). This is a scientifically valid measurement device. Heart rate increases as a person inhales and decreases as one exhales. This is called cardio-respiratory synchrony. Research has shown that when breathing and heart rate are in synch this produces a resonant frequency in the body (similar to the resonance being produced by the Tibetan bowls. This is extremely beneficial for the heart and the entire body. Stress related disorders, pain, and many other disorders are predicted by whether or not a person is achieving cardio-respiratory synchrony. During a session of Tibetan bowl sound therapy, cardio-respiratory synchrony increased dramatically as measured by J&J Engineered Biofeedback equipment. Data showed that during the sound therapy session there was an increase in Parasympathetic Nervous System activity and decrease in Sympathetic Nervous System drive. The relaxation response was initiated and the stress response was inhibited. This means the Autonomic Nervous System was balanced for the majority of the session. The resonance of the bowls produced slow breathing of approximately six breaths per minute which produced beneficial effects on the heart and whole body. These results are promising in that Tibetan bowl sound therapy increases cardio-respiratory synchrony and resonance within the body. Therefore, there are many disorders that can greatly benefits from the use of Tibetan bowl sound therapy".

The session begins with a combination of focused dialog and an intuitive reading that helps to identify the core of your particular patterns and create a powerful intention to support your deepest good. You then lie, fully clothed, on a comfortable mat with 18-20 bowls on and around your body. Gentle hands-on energy balancing (Polarity) work begins the session to aid your relax into the deeply healing tones of the bowls as they are stuck and sung creating magnificent harmonics that align your energies. Penetrating vibrations of gongs moving over and around you sending strong vibrations to detoxify and purify your system. The sound patterns create a cellular anchor to the memory of wellbeing.

Toning, color work or visualization may also be introduced in sessions as well as referrals as needed. To maximize the process I recommend a weekly session for a minimum of 4 consecutive weeks followed by 2 sessions spaced 2 weeks apart. Between sessions clients use my CD to continue building momentum. At the end of the 6 sessions we evaluate your progress and discuss the schedule for future sessions.(I typically recommend that you continue with "tune-up" sessions several times a year to help maintain the work we have done). There are several formats and payment options to choose from. Email Diáne for further information

"I felt any inner stress and anxiety completely disappear as I relaxed into a profound sense of inner calm, peace, and oneness, which I know to be the essential core of my living as a human being, and a true experience of deep inner healing. I am convinced that the Tibetan singing bowls are an essential part of sound healing and an extremely valuable tool in integrative medicine today, especially for the healing of stress and for pain relief."
Michael Verrilli, DO Northampton, MA

An enriching and intimate experience for a couple, parent and child or good friends. Many clients have shared sessions with friends who are suffering from the effects of chemotherapy or surgery, loss or to enhance a loving bond. This is a relaxing and extremely supportive shared experience that creates a sense of harmony and openness.

Diane, "I experienced your healing for the first time last night at First Church of Religious Science in Las Vegas, Nevada. It was a wonderful experience, one I hope to repeat at a private session with you sometimes in the near future. I have always known that music had healing properties, and have always found peace in the sound of bells, chimes, and expecially water. Thank you for exposing me to the glorious sound of sacred bowls.As a RN I have always felt a sense of incompleteness with western medicine. Perhaps I may find where I belong in my life's work by exploring mind, body, spirit healing. I look forward to getting your monthly newsletters. Again, thank you for last evenings experience." Namaste, Marty, Las Vegas, NV

Hello Diane!
I've heard that several people called the church Tuesday and expressed their gratitude for your concert. Healings definitely took place and others are wanting personal sessions. So, definitely let us know when you are in town next. Also, thank you for the CD. I play it at work and it's very soothing. Have a glorious weekend. Namaste,
Rebecca, Las Vegas, NV
