The Art of Sound Healing.

Have you heard of sound healing?  This is the use of ancient sounds and instruments to enrich the body, the mind, and the spirit.  Why is sound a powerful healing tool?  Sound is vibrational and the human body is vibrational in nature.  Every culture on earth uses sound to invoke and transform different stages of consciousness.

There is an old Hindu saying known as “Nada Brahma”.  This means all creation is sound.  In the Judeo-Christian culture one may say that in the beginning was the Word, and the word was with God.  This is a direct quote from the Bible (John 1:1).  The nature and power of sound corresponds with creation itself in nearly all cultures.

Understanding the power of sound as it pertains to healing is a vital process.  In the San Antonio area Kuadra Consulting and Counseling Service is a professional Sound Healing Center.  They may have the answers in learning more about this fascinating art of managing all parts of your complex body through sound.  Call them to make an appointment at (210) 314-7687.

When Relationships are Chronically Bad.

Many relationships suffer from a chronic pattern of dysfunctionality.  This may come in many forms, some of which are painfully obvious.  There is repeated physical or emotional abuse.  Eventually the question arises…why would anyone put themselves through this repeated angst?  It would be nice if there was a pat answer to that question, but each individual situation is unique.

There is a term for this type of aberrant behavior coined by Sigmund Freud.  He called the phenomenon “repetition compulsion”.  When a person’s early parental experience is characterized by frustration, abandonment, rejection, and other negative receptors we become filled with the notion that something is wrong with us.  We try to “fix the problem” by ignoring it and just being submissive.

If you live in the San Antonio Texas area you may discover that help may be just a phone call away.  Please browse the website of www.kuadracs.com.  Find the assistance that you seek to combat “repetition compulsion”.  Call Kuadra Consulting today at (210) 314-7687 and talk to the trained professionals about your individual situation.

Stay Tuned - LifeForce Recovery

Stay tuned for the emergence of LifeForce Recovery, a place that will be located near San Antonio Texas. It will be the largest international practice center and community of bodhisattvas.  LifeForce will invite anyone who is motivated by great compassion and desire to heal the suffering and those afflicted with trauma, emotional, physical and mental health issues.  

This mosaic community founded by Shamanic practitioner and psychotherapist Khadijat Quadri, enjoins all faiths and talents of people to create a new spiritual community of healing. One that recognizes that spirit transcends all faiths, race, ethnicity and geographical placement.  One that truly acknowledges the spirit in all beings of life and the interconnectedness of all people, beings of nature and spirit.  To see that we are all one being in the true consciousness of GOD.  A community that recognizes that the trauma of one equals the trauma of all.  A community of care that recognizes the need to return to our true original belief that it takes a village to heal the one to heal the whole.  

At LifeForce Recovery we will weave mindfulness, shamanic practices, Christianity, energy work, Reiki healing, sound and more, into all our daily activities, training ourselves to be bodhisattvas and Zen masters throughout the day: while healing, eating, walking, working, or enjoying a cup of tea together.  LifeForce will be a home away from home, and a beautiful, nourishing, simple environment in which to cultivate the mind of Spiritual awakening to who we truly are.

Family Gatherings during the Holidays.

As Families gather together during the holidays things are brought to the forefront that are not seen or discussed at other times of the year.  Perhaps there is a family member that is suffering from drug or alcohol addiction.  Maybe one or more of the individuals at the holiday table are having extreme issues at school.  Perhaps there are aging parents that now need extra care.  There are so many family issues that you may have chosen to put on the back-burner this past year.

Do not shirk from these real-life issues.  They certainly are not going to disappear when everyone disperses after the holidays.  Eventually, sooner or later they must be dealt with.  We know that the beginning of the discussion is always the most difficult.  Try to find the right time and place to diplomatically discuss the issues that are troubling your loved ones.

If you live in the San Antonio Texas area KUADRA Consulting and Counseling Service helps individuals and families to recognize, understand, and cope with problems and conflicts they are experiencing.  We will help your family deal with these personal conflicts after the holidays by not only providing counseling, but helping them locate other services if need be.  Please call Kuadra Consulting at (210) 314-7687 and arrange a meeting at their office at 100 W. Central Texas Expy Suite 212 in Harker Heights.

What is Our Higher Self?

We all aspire to be better than we are today, don’t we?  Why not do so if there is a way to self-betterment?  A higher self is a term that is used to describe a state of consciousness that uplifts us to our ultimate destiny.  Now, just why should that be important to us?  If we are living only in a material world we may get lost in the purpose of life beyond “earning a paycheck”.  And yet there was a time in all of our lives when we lived for the sheer joy of life itself.

Close your eyes and see your higher self as being detached from your earthly goals of working each day and making a living and being on time.  Go beyond the cares and obligations of this world for a moment.  You will find that this higher self within you actually loves you more than YOU love YOU!  Let your higher self be your teacher and guide you toward a better understanding of life.

For more information about getting in touch with your Higher Self and other meaningful self-help tools that may change your life forever, contact Kuadra Consulting and Counseling Service of San Antonio Texas.  At Kuadra we have been helping individuals, families, and businesses with various training and workshops for years.  Give us a call today at (210) 314-7687.
