As a lifelong student, there is always more to learn, and she continually strives for more knowledge and experience.

This could be anything from placing singing bowls directly on the body in combination with energy work, to breathwork, sound bath, meditation, drumming, and vocal toning. Rooted in her love for Christ and for people, Shelley leads intuitive, Bible-based, spirit-led sound baths designed to nurture the soul and release trauma. Her sound baths are a unique blend of spiritual guidance and healing sound, aiming to uplift and restore every participant. Whether through the resonance of sound or the wisdom of scripture, Shelley is committed to helping others find their inner fire with peace, joy, and deep inner healing. We are vibrational beings; therefore, our body responds to the vibrational quality of sound as it enters the body in waves, balancing the Chakras, removing stuck energy, and opening the body to receive healing energy from the source of all things.  In her spare time, Shelley enjoys spending time with family, writing, and trail running.

Key Takeaways The Current State of Regulation: There is no official governing body for Sound Therapy. Certifications and licenses are typically issued by private companies, not official boards. Why Regulation Matters: Without standard oversight, there's a greater risk of harm in this space. Sound Therapy is powerful, and practitioners must understand its impact on mental, emotional, and physical health. The Importance of Trauma-Informed Training: Niajae shares examples of potential harm, such as triggering PTSD or overstimulating the nervous system, and how proper training minimizes these risks.
