"I'm a New Yorker," she said. Well shoot. If she's a New Yorker and she believes in the powers of the Integratron, this must be crazy. I think something that I thought was really interesting that I learned was about the relations of the quartz to our bodies on a molecular level. In my mind, I pictures a bond between the molecules of quartz in the bowls and the molecules of my own body. Apparently this was supposed to affect my chakra and boy were they right.
Firstly, as I was laying there, the sound of the bowls overtook my ears--this sound was something that I usually feel uncomfortable with because loud consistent noise makes me uneasy; however, no pain, no gain. But that's where it got weird.
Secondly, the man who was playing the bowls played a certain key and that for some reason hit a nerve in me and I started to cry. It seemed to have made a connection between me and some grief that I still have lingering within me. That was bizarre. Mind you, my eyes are closed this whole time and I am seeing colors like I'm flying through space--a medley of purples and yellows. Very strange.
Lastly, I don't ever remember the bowls ending being played. I just woke up startled. My eyes flew open and I realized that the bowls weren't playing anymore and there was calming music playing. Once we all were taken out of our sound bath, I could tell my hearing was more sensitive because I was hearing people talking across the room even more clearly than before the sound bath.
Definitely one of the stranger experiences I've had in my life, but definitely something I would come back to again. It has a kind of addictive quality to it--a type of relaxation I feel that could only come from an experience at a place like that.
