a wide-open sky!
In my notes from the Healing Sounds Intensive, I found these words, “The energy we put into music translates into something powerful – not perfection, but love.” That was the essence of the whole nine day experience.
I was one of the few musicians in attendance. It was not an advantage. I have been trained to strive for perfection with the goal to sing the right note in the right time with warm, radiant technique and expressive emotion. In a workshop using sound for healing, perfection is irrelevant. Intention is all that matters.
Jonathan Goldman said almost daily, ” Frequency plus intent equals healing.” By that he means that energy and consciousness (intent) are encoded in the sound (frequency). When we sing with perfection as the goal, we get music that is technically excellent, but not necessarily moving. When we sing with love in our hearts – for the music, our voice, the miracle of breath and sound, for ourselves and whomever is listening, then the sounds we make are truly powerful and healing.
