The targeted reduction of stimuli, offered by a sound intervention using Peter Hess® sound methods, triggers a new order in the neural system.
Recognizing and implementing the importance of Peter Hess’s principle of “less is more” promotes the self-regulation of the organism. Sensory fasting is a guide to the reorganization of the sensorimotor control loop.
The Peter Hess® basic sound massage offers an effective basis for strengthening body awareness. Awareness of our body anchors us within ourselves and leads to deep levels of relaxation. Training our perception in experiencing the body creates space for security.
A balance develops between healthy activity, alertness, processing, and a state of release, the emergence of inner peace for relaxation.
Fasting can bring about profound changes in body awareness, emotional regulation, and the perception of closeness and distance.
Our brain is plastic and reacts to environmental influences. Permanent overstimulation leads to overload and poor stimulus filtering. Sensory fasting allows the brain to “reset.” The reevaluation of information promotes neural balance.
The use of targeted sound interventions offers the opportunity to apply positive stimulation to break learned stimulus-response patterns.
Basic sound massage develops a deep level of relaxation through conscious awareness of the body and enables a harmonious connection between sound and inner experience.
