But when we stop and listen, even for a moment, we can become a little more present.<\/p><p>Sound can affect us in ways we don\u2019t always notice. A familiar song can take us back to an earlier time in our lives, while a certain voice can make us feel at ease or a favourite song can make us want to move. The sounds of nature can draw our attention away from our thoughts and help us feel calmer.\u00a0 Bowls, gongs, chimes, drums, and other instruments can invite us to slow down and listen more closely. Singing can make us feel lighter. And sometimes, what we most need is silence.<\/p><p>There are also sounds around us that we cannot hear at all. Some animals can hear frequencies beyond the range of human hearing, a reminder that the world of sound is larger than the part we experience.<\/p><p><strong>Safe and Sound<\/strong><\/p><p class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\" data-start=\"103\" data-end=\"362\">I have always liked the phrase <em>safe and sound<\/em>. Here, <em>sound<\/em> means healthy and whole, but I also think of sound in the way we usually use the word: what we hear. And sometimes listening can help us feel a little safer and more settled within ourselves.<\/p><p>Birdsong, the sound of the ocean, or simply stopping to listen can bring us back to the present.<\/p><p>That is at the heart of this site: listening more deeply, being present, and finding simple ways to feel more at home within ourselves.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-2bf4637 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"2bf4637\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-c478f54\" data-id=\"c478f54\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-98ad000 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"98ad000\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.soundhealingspirit.com\/?page_id=844\">Continue into Healing<\/a>\u00a0<br \/><em data-start=\"278\" data-end=\"310\">feeling safer within ourselves<\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sound Sometimes simply listening is enough.
