Ceremony

Then, together, we will invite the elements of nature and the spirits of the natural world into our circle. We will use our prayers and intentions to direct energy towards healing challenges, awakening new abilities, and offering gratitude. Doing a ceremony outside will help you relax your body, focus your mind, free your spirit, and connect to the beauty of the natural world.

Engagement Therapy for Seniors
HarmonyWorks engagement therapy combines movement, music, rhythm, and other customized activities to help support brain health for individuals living with dementia. Certain sound healing techniques can also help heal various complications of aging, including mild cognitive loss, isolation, stroke, Parkinson’s Disease, and more.
The foundation for Karen Walker’s approach comes from her training and experience with dementia care, life enrichment therapy, theater, dance, sound therapy, and administrative positions within a CCRC retirement community. Karen has also completed a number of Teepa Snow’s Positive Approach to Care-PAC training programs, including the Dementia Engagement Leader Certification and the Consultant Certification.
“I had a stroke that left me with almost no use in my left arm, hand, and fingers. Karen used tuning forks on the meridians and Tibetan singing bowls, and later that day, I was able to grasp my daughter’s hand with my left hand and squeeze”–Paula Olquin
Who can benefit?
People living with dementia.
People living with any form of dementia retain rhythm on the right side of their brain and lose language on the left side of the brain. Studies show that when the working parts of the brain are used, other brain areas can light up, allowing improved brain function and opening new neuropathways.
Music is stored in a part of the brain that stays alive long after other areas have shut down. If you or a loved one is diagnosed with one of the forms of dementia, a combination of sound healing, drumming, and exercise sessions can help retain brain health.
People recovering from a stroke, cardiovascular disease, Parkinson’s Disease, as well as surgeries and serious injuries
If you are recovering from a stroke, heart attack, or some other acute physical ailment, sound therapy is an integral part of your care plan along with P/T, O/T, speech therapy, and other medical treatments.
Holding specific tuning forks on acupressure points along the afflicted meridian as well as the affected area of the body can speed up the healing process. Also, when you receive sound frequencies from Tibetan singing bowls and gongs, your body harmonizes with these sounds and begins to restore equilibrium.
People who need exercise and engagement but are home or facility-bound.
For individuals who can no longer access the exercise programs offered within your community, HarmonyWorks will bring an exercise program to your house. Each exercise program will be tailored to the music style of movement that you like.
Combination routines are customized to meet your interests and often include breathwork, stretching, light cardio, and guided visualization. Also, if you are physically limited, we will listen to the music of your choice to help you to relax and soothe your mind and body.
