LARISA GOSLA
Larisa Gosla is a Musician, Sound Healer, and Certified Hypnotherapist. She has an extensive background with over a decade of experience traveling the globe, facilitating music, dance, sound healing, and other creative arts expressions as a means for healing. She believes that staying in tune with our bodies/spirit/mind is key to living a healthy lifestyle.
What is Sound Healing?
Sound Healing is the therapeutic application of sound frequencies to the body/mind/spirit of a person with the intention of bringing them into a state of harmony and health. Each sound bowl emits a resonant frequency that is connected to a specific part of the energetic body system (chakra.) Because our body and mind are so connected we hold thoughts, beliefs, habits in our energetic system. When one area of our body is out of alignment, it disrupts the flow of the entire system. The sound frequencies from the Quartz Crystal Bowls move into the energetic and physical body, breaking up what is not needed and re-aligning, while also facilitating a deep meditation and physical relaxation. This allows the body to re-tune to its natural, effortless flow. Larisa likes to describe it as a car wash, but for the energetic body!
Rudolph Steiner said: “There will come a time when a diseased condition will not be described as it is today by physicians and psychologists, but it will be spoken of in musical terms, as one would speak of a piano that was out of tune.”
What is Hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a natural state of heightened suggestibility that we all experience. Have you ever been driving on the freeway and missed your exit because you were daydreaming? Have you ever watched a movie and completely forgot about your “outside life” until the movie is over? Have you ever entered a deep state of meditation where time is suddenly non-existent? These are all wonderful examples of hypnosis.
What is Hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy is utilizing the power of hypnosis to bypass the critical mind so that your conscious and subconscious mind can work in harmony together, to create the life you truly desire and deserve! It is used solely for the health and well-being of the individual and is very different from stage hypnosis which is used for entertainment purposes only. You can never say or do anything you don’t want to.
“I attended a sound bowl healing with Larisa to support her as a fellow classmate, and because I was curious about whether or not sound healing worked. I was blown away! I almost didn’t attend that night because I’d hurt my back the previous weekend and the recovery was going slow. I was astounded after the session was over to realize I had absolutely no back pain! I also felt quite uplifted, and as if I’d had a massage. Keep me on your e-mail list, Larisa- I’ll be back!!”
