Welcome
I am Therese Laforge, the steward of this website. I came to bowls in 1992 with a chance encounter with visiting crystal bowl presenters here in Kamloops. I made my first crystal bowl purchase that same year. and have 35 bowls in my sound shelves at this point.
Behind me is 30 years of early childhood education, middle years education and TRU class instruction. It seems natural to go from the known to the unknown and to find ways to make that movement easy. Mingled into the educational years was my own learning and personal development exploration. I think of myself as a life long learner. Physics then became important to me as it provides explanation of how sound works with our chakras, our meridians, our nervous system and so forth. Sound is the health enhancer as I see it at this point.
I live in Kamloops BC, and have an active sound practice locally and in the surrounding communities. I also do prairie tours in the spring/summer/early autumn doing into Alta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba.​

My mission statement in using sound baths:
​
-
To help with the release of tension and stress while prone and relaxing
-
To teach the simple principles of sound as medicine
-
To practice ways of letting go, including grieving
-
To give our past over to the Universe and focus on now and the road ahead
-
To present materials that are easy to access as the baby steps of change that we each are calling for.
-
​To encourage intention building and goal setting
-
To get comfortable with seeing ourselves as complex beautiful multidimensional beings.
-
To facilitate personal growth and higher consciousness, including spirituality and universal law.
-
To develop our clairs...clairsentience, clairaudience, clairvoyance, etc.
-
To reciprocate in having great friends and feeling understood and supported.

About Terez
This website is geared to help people with their growth using the fabulous singing bowls as our first aid and long term aids.
In its bear bones simplicity, my sessions are about detoxing and then getting into your own flow. Said another way, our sessions use sound to call us back into our bodies, to slow down enough to be aware of our own energy and use the harmonic sound to help us let go of tension/stress/gummed up energy patterns. That release being done, our personal chi, energy or wellbeing starts to flow and our creativity and our lives feel freer, more able to function and have fun.
I have a great love for intention setting. It is a sweet way to let our heart lead in our lives. Our intention to do no harm, to help where we can and to know that we are all one helps us choose kindness and forgiveness in our interactions.
For my meditations/presentations/workshops/sound baths, I have the following statement of intention or mission statement.
1. Do no harm
2. Share tools and information that uplift.
3. Encourage self forgiveness knowing that all mistakes are for learning.
4. Encourage forgiveness of others to set ourselves free.
5. Speak to detoxification regularly in our toxic environment
6. Encourage baby steps for changing poor habits to healthier ones.
7. Develop self love as a baseline reservoir to pour out loving energy to others.
8. Speak about benevolent frequencies as medicine for body and spirit.
9. Honor self and others. Be thankful for being here.
