Based in Australia, she has been teaching since 2002, and a gong practitioner since 2006. Her knowledge of sound therapy, meditation, crystals and other esoteric subjects is extensive. She was invited to participate in a workshop at the Kryon Summer Light Conference in Sedona in 2015, and has been invited back in 2016.Maya weaves music and sound into her sessions. These sounds release, balance and illuminate your being. Soulful and exquisitely beautiful, the harmonic sounds of the gongs and other instruments weave a gentle yet powerful energy around and through you, that provides vibrational healing deep within the body.Her Alchemy of Light & Sound meditations are described as 'soundscapes woven together with Light and Sound, the two creative frequencies of the Universe', as shes harmonizes the sound and light to create an energy vibration that is unique to her.Maya is also an energy healer, retreat facilitator and conducts unique Sound and Light activation sessions called the Alchemy of Light and Sound incorporating the I AM Spirit Box with her sound.The Benefits of Light TherapyThe frequency of the Light Box colours enter through the pupils of the eye, to the optic nerve which in turn activates the pinneal gland. The pinneal gland regulates some of the hormonal activity in our bodies; hormones for uplifting moods and a sense of well being; assisting with relieving depression, anxiety, etc and hormones for sleep; aiding in a more restful sleep and the ability to function better during the day with clear and focused thinking. With the pinneal activated, the pituitary gland is then stimulated, releasing all manner of hormones that regulate the body's metabolism, energy balance, growth and nervous system activity, to name just a few. In general the body's systems are balanced and a sense of well being is experienced.The Benefits of Sound Therapy:“If we accept that sound is vibration and we know that vibration touches every part of our physical being, then we understand that sound is heard not only through our ears but through every cell in our bodies.”“Sound enters the healing equation from several directions: It may alter cellular functions through energetic effects; it may entrain biological systems to function more homeostatically; it may calm the mind and therefore the body; or it may have emotional effects, which influence neurotransmitters and neuropeptides, which in turn help to regulate the immune system – the healer within.”Mitchell Gaynor, M.D. a New York oncologist and Clinical Professor of Medicine at Weill Medical College of Cornell University, has been using sound healing practices since the early 1990s. He is the author of “The Healing Power of Sound: Recovery from Life-Threatening Illness using Sound, Voice, and Music.”"The secret of the gong is its tremendous potential for healing and rejuvenation. Because the gong covers the full spectrum of sound, it vibrates all the cells and bones and organs, some more than others, depending upon the pitch of the gong. You feel an influx of energy coming from it in your body as well as hearing it. The gong is more accurately a force of energy, like a divine engine, affecting the body’s meridians.The sounds from the gongs travel from the outer ear throughout the body via the vagus nerve — impacting brain waves, respiratory rate and heart rate. Sound and vibration help facilitate a deep sense of peace, release tension and blocked energy, and balance the energy centers in the body. They are working at a cellular level to rebalance the physical, emotional and spiritual bodies."Using sound as therapy can provide results for a variety of issues including:- Sleep disorders- Anxiety- Depression- Stress management- PTSD- Depression- Pain management
