In it, I offer somatic treatments with acoustic frequencies using a variety of instruments and tools. This approach offers support for Chi to run freely, so that we can sing the songs of our souls.<\/p>\n<p>For sound to have a positive effect on an organism, it needs space and time to resonate. In each of our sessions, you will experience somatic expansion, deeper alignment, and increase of vital energy.<\/p>\n<p>This work is about creating a new integrated body that anchors us and can cope with life\u2019s challenges from an active, living point of view.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;<em>Overtones can open us to the information resonant with stars and planets already contained in the higher subtle energy fields, by aligning us to the natural order of earth and celestial energies.<\/em> <em>Overtones work like keys of resonance that open space in the aura where ancestral memories and cosmic messages wait.<\/em>&#8220;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Fabien Maman, <\/em><em>founder of Tama-Do, the Academy of Sound, Color and Movement\u00ae<\/em><\/p>\n<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img width=\"720\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/marianamarcassa.com\/sound-therapy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/s-individual.jpg\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/marianamarcassa.com\/sound-therapy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/s-individual.jpg 720w, https:\/\/marianamarcassa.com\/sound-therapy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/s-individual-300x208.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><figcaption>photo: Lisa Graves<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img width=\"720\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/marianamarcassa.com\/sound-therapy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/s-voicing-01.jpg\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/marianamarcassa.com\/sound-therapy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/s-voicing-01.jpg 720w, https:\/\/marianamarcassa.com\/sound-therapy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/s-voicing-01-300x208.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<h3>Voicing Sessions<\/h3>\n<p><b>Voicing Experiencing&nbsp;<\/b>are personalized, one-hour sessions combining listening, talking, voicing and movement.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Our practical work together involves meditations, breathing exercises, movement, touching and free vocalization, getting in touch with your voice\u2019s force. At the end of the session, we will move into a therapeutic elaboration. We will give words to what has just happened in the body, in its encounter with the vibration of the voice.<\/p>\n<p>In our work, we will explore the voice as a tool that activates, connects and evokes the primordial logic of the body. Through this healing and complex musical instrument, we\u2019ll move beyond the logic of verbal communication and the standardized songs of Western thought to discover your voice&#8217;s inherent force.<\/p>\n<p><i>\u201cWhen a symptom appears in a body, it is not a particular, individualized, private problem. Instead, symptoms are an appearance of the problems of the social field in subjectivity. Working with the voice not subordinated to speech, that is, with voicing and its intensive matter, the social field invested in the body becomes audible in a very unique way.&nbsp; <\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>And it is through this singular listening to voicing that something curious occurs: the repetition patterns are heard, but once it is audible, a becoming can happen. That is because this \u201ccrazy\u201d and &#8220;meaningless&#8221; voice, although having its domesticated side full of gimmicks, memories and traumas, is populated by incorporeal universes that make us enter into becoming.\u201d&nbsp; <\/i>Mariana Marcassa<\/p>\n<p><b>Voicing sessions<\/b> involve touching the body and creating a safe and confidential space and happen in person respecting COVID-19 measures and everyone&#8217;s safety.<\/p>\n<h3>Energy Treatments<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"135\" data-end=\"419\">Starting in 2026, I will be opening one day per month for individual energy treatments rooted in Brazilian spiritual traditions, Reiki, and sound therapy.
