Sound-Medicine & Mantra: From Vedic Chants to 1960s Sonic Healing
Vedic priests intoned Sanskrit meters to tune consciousness; centuries later Indian classical raga championed “Nada Brahma”—sound as creator. The 1960s psychedelic era introduced quartz bowls, synthesizers, and brain-entrainment research. Today, therapists pair solfeggio frequencies with Yin holds to release fascia and emotion. (Explore Mind-Body Green’s primer on sound-healing history.)
At Spirit Camp, Rebecca layers shruti-box drone under crystal bowls, then invites heart-opening chants. Garden bees buzz counter-melodies; guests describe a “hive mind” serenity.

Meet Rebecca—Yin Weaver & Garden Guardian
Rebecca’s volunteer hours at local pollinator nonprofits inspire her to gift seed packets at check-in. Her Yin sequences mirror plant growth: seed (arrival), sprout (sensation), blossom (integration). Follow her at @rebeccarogersyoga.
