Just like the natural world gently re-emerges, we too may feel a sense of readiness to re-engage with life around us. It’s seasonal biology 🌱
Tip: Step outside for a few minutes today and let your body take in the shift, the light, air, sound. No need to do anything with it. Just notice.
With SRT or Sound Therapy at Shift, this is the same awareness we return to in session, allowing the body to settle, receive, and gently re-engage in its own time✨
💐Happy Spring!!!💐

How the body responds is remarkable.
When you slow down and reduce stimulation, your nervous system shifts out of stress mode and into regulation.
Some feel heavy.
Some feel light.
Some cry.
Some float.
Some fall asleep.
Every body responds differently.
None of these experiences are the goal. They are signs your system is responding.
If you’re ready to experience it for yourself, group and private Sound Bath sessions are available at Shift.

People often ask what they are supposed to experience during our Sound Baths.
The truth is, there is not one right experience.
Some people feel heavy.
Some see light.
Some cry.
Some feel waves moving through their body.
None of it is random.
And none of it is something you have to chase.
Sound does more than relax you. It gives your nervous system space to soften and reorganize in its own way.
Part 1 shares some of the most common experiences I hear about after sessions at Shift.
Part 2 continues the conversation.
If you have experienced something during our Sound Baths that surprised you, I would love to hear it.

Sometimes the body speaks through tension, sleep disruption, or jaw clenching. These experiences can be signs that the nervous system has been holding stress for longer than it was meant to.
Shift Relaxation Therapy™ (SRT) supports the body’s natural ability to settle, regulate, and return to balance through gentle, supportive contact.
When the body feels safe, relaxation happens without effort.

The Practitioner
My name is Abra Merlino and I am a Reiki Master/Teacher, Integrated Energy Therapy® Advanced Practitioner, CTAA certified Meditation Practitioner, Akashic Records Reader, certified in Sound and Crystal Therapy, and am an Intuitive Reader. I had a wonderful 12 year career as a elementary school teacher. After the birth of my second child, I was fortunate enough to stay at home where I studied the facets of energy and how it works. I have always had and interest in energy work and the sacred arts since very young. As a small child around the age of 8, I had 3 profound transcendental experiences. A diagnosed thyroid condition in 2009 inspired me to find alternative ways to heal myself especially when western medicine wasn't working effectively. Now in remission since 2011, this journey of self-healing and exploration compels me today to share these amazing energy healing arts and their benefits for everyone on every level.
All that would like to step into their power, heal, learn spiritual self-care, expand their breadth of knowledge, connect with a community of like-minded individuals, or are unsure of what they are looking for but feel this is the place for them are welcomed through Shift Studio's doors.
May you always walk with the essence of truth, light, and love,
Abra Merlino
