Katie Jo brings us her insight and wisdom for sound healing, energy vibrations, and connection. We are beings made of energy, water, vibration, and frequency. When life hands us hell in a handbasket, we can become paralyzed. Fear, pain, grief, loneliness, and worry that things will never get better can bring our entire life to a halt. Sound therapy is a proven tool to help our brain relax into theta states of relaxation. The drum's sound is our first introduction to the rhythm when we hear our mother's heartbeat in the womb. Katie Jo reminds us that as we comfort our babies with pats on the back and their ears held tightly to our chest, we are creating this most basic form of sound that soothes a restless infant. As we grow and gain independence, we move away from the powerful healing sounds that have been a part of every human's beginning. The drum's sound is the heart's sound, a steady beat that can calm the storm when it's raging inside. In general, music has the power to lift our mood, calm our mind, make us spontaneously break into dance and movement, and form human connection and healing.
Katie Jo is the owner of Sage Canvas, a beautiful space in Lehi, Utah. She offers drum circles, sound therapies, drum-making workshops, guided meditations, shamanic healing, and so many other soul supporting services. Our world seems to have gone mad. We are more divided now than ever. Our ability to connect with the entire planet of 7 billion humans through social media has opened pandora's box. We need to come together and work on the collective shadow that has become a raging storm. We feel bombarded with noise, confusion, and interference that lives within our unconscious being. We need to slow down and look around for those who are disconnected and suffering. We would benefit by sitting around the metaphoric campfire and beat our drums together as a tool to soothe so many wounded souls. Rhythm and sound are a universal language, and the earth that holds us so sweetly has a pulse and vibration, an ebb and flow that mirrors us. If we can find this deeper connection, plug it into the deeper syncopation surrounding us and slow down enough to feel it, we might just set foot on a healing journey. Katie Jo offers us such a grounded space and so many offerings that become a bridge for healing and connection. You can find her on Instagram;
