1. Did you know that...

Drumming has been used successfully with Alzheimer's patients to help focusing attention?

Drumming has been used with war veterans to help coping with their trauma and with addicts in recovery from drug and alcohol abuse?

Drumming has been used with prison and homeless populations to enhance self-esteem?

Progressive corporations like Motorola, AT&T and Levi-Strauss have drummed with middle management to promote team spirit-building?

Sounds are a powerful tool to transmute not only the way a person feels but also the energetic imprints of a given environment.

 

 

2. Feng Shui quick tip

To elevate the energy of your home, use sounds with intention. If you have any musical instruments and enjoy playing it, do so. If you don't play any instruments, try playing your most favorite songs. Certain songs can help you not only in achieving your goals, but also in changing your perception of the physical environment around you.

Years and years ago, while I was still living in Brazil, I created a cassette that was meant to relax me. I chose songs I liked very much. They were a series of songs that started very active, with a great Brazilian "samba" and progressively  transitioned to calmer and calmer to the point were the last song was really smooth, relaxing and classical. Now, realize how unusual this cassette was. You can certainly never buy such a thing. Popular and classical, fast, and slow, festive and serene. The key was to transition from one song to the next, reducing the intensity and changing the instruments little by little. I started with tambourines and ended with harps! The results? Just fascinating. Every time I played that cassette, I was gently guided into deep and restful meditative states. Try it! You might have a lot of fun during the creation of such a tool and it will be absolutely personalized!

 

 

3. The article: "Transmuting Energies for Better Living"

Energy fields can be used to increase harmony, beauty, love, peace, and other higher vibrations in your homes, offices, bodies, minds and souls. The Universe is in a constant energetic exchange. To help us to better understand certain concepts I will call these energies as higher vibrations and lower vibrations, plus everything in between. I avoid the terms negative and positive energies, as they tend to classify energies into "good" or "bad", not to mention the confusion created around scientific terms such as negative ion environments and positive ion environments, when the negative ion environment is actually the "good" one for us.

All energies have a function and a purpose in the Universe. What makes them "good" or "bad" is the observer, in other words, you and I. There is a scientific field that studies these energies, the energies that we cannot see with eyes of the body, but only with the eyes of the soul. In science these energies are called "subtle energies". Most of us have experienced at least once in life that bizarre sensation that someone is looking at us, from behind. Sure enough, we turn around and someone is really looking at us. Most of us can also easily tell when a room feels "charged" after an argument or emotional discussion. Many of us can also pinpoint spaces, either in our own homes or even in public spaces that have something that does not look or does not feel quite right. We might not be able to say exactly what, but we consciously avoid spending time in such spaces. What we are actually doing is "reading" the subtle energies of that particular environment or situation. Everything in the material Universe either attracts energies or repels energies.

It is very important for us to understand three simple, yet profound and life changing concepts:

(1)

Everything in our physical Universe is composed of constantly changing energies.

(2)

We are not separate from the physical world around us.

(3)

Everything has consciousness and memory.

Our environments evolve and change according to what they are exposed to. When an environment is exposed to artificial and toxic chemicals, the environment embodies lower vibrations. And believe me we don't need to be in a chemical industry to experience a heavily chemical environment. According to studies done by the EPA, the indoor air can be much more polluted than the outdoor air, even in the larger cities. The reason is that we have been using a lot of artificial materials that tend to give off gas inside our homes, and then we close the doors and the windows really well to have our air conditioning and heaters working efficiently, so the amount of gasses increases to toxic levels. Lower vibrations resonate with lower vibrations, and soon enough, people occupying such environments will tend to develop physical and emotional discomforts and diseases.

On the other hand, environmentally conscious buildings and products not only vibrate higher, but also help all that come into contact with them to vibrate highly too, contributing for our bodies to be healthier and full of vitality. After spending time in an environment that feels clean, natural, harmonious, and balanced, we also feel harmonious and balanced. Space Clearing is the art of transmuting environmental subtle energies to higher vibrations. Space Clearing is highly recommended in a number of circumstances such as before moving to a new home (even new construction), during challenging times in life, during and after illnesses of any kind, even a simple flu, after nightmares, after explosions of anger or other highly charged emotions, when something does not feel quite right, when things in life feel too blocked, when we feel external influences disturbing the harmony of the household, when we want to improve our lives or business and grow it to a next level, and so forth. But why should we Space Clear under all these circumstances? The main reason is that everything that has ever happened in a particular environment leaves an energetic imprint that tends to be recorded in our environments. These imprints impact the way we feel and experience environments, often leading us to the very same vibration. In other words, we tend to repeat the same pattern, unless we use conscious effort to shift the energy. That is exactly what Space Clearing does for us. It helps us to clear patterns that we no longer need in our lives so we can open new doors of creativity and growth. Besides, by living in alignment with our environments, we tend tap into innate wisdom of nature and live a more balanced and fulfilling life that not only benefits us and our immediate family and friends, but also our community, country and ultimately our world.

I have been blessed with the opportunity to witness my clients and students in awe and respect for what they have experienced with the use of such techniques. And in the spirit of gratitude to the Divine for leading me towards this path, I invite you to learn more about it, try it, and experience it for yourself.

Wishing you the best of life and living harmoniously,
Jucimara
