| |  In this workshop, Pat Moffitt Cook a pioneer in the field of indigenous sound and music healing, explores indigenous and traditional cross-cultural therapeutic techniques and sound/music repertoires. Sound and music have been used successfully in indigenous cultures throughout history to intercept illness, to control pain, and aid emotional catharsis through relaxation and stimulation. In traditional cultures the conscious use of music has been proven to promote physical wellbeing and to create spiritual connection. In addition, in many indigenous cultures, sound plays a primary role in the death and dying process.
Through experiential practices, demonstrations, dyad and group experiences and discussion, students in this workshop will investigate how sound and music are used as diagnostic tools, healing agents and connectors to spiritual domains and how each of these elements create and construct a dynamic healing session.
An emphasis is placed on trans-cultural themes and addressing the needs of multi-ethnic client/patient populations.
