The Potent Effect of Sound Healing: A Case Study

By Leave a Comment

This is written by a friend of mine, John Shambhu Eustor. This is a case study where he shares the effect of sound healing upon his own health.

Four years ago I was stricken with a near fatal illness called Guillain Barre Syndrome, which was an allergic reaction to a flu shot I received while spending time at Zuccotti Park for the OWS movement.

On Dec 5th 2011, I was rushed Lenox Hill hospital in Manhattan, where I spent 18 days in recovery, 5 of those days were in ICU under repository failure alert. As I laid on that hospital bed in agonizing pain I made a promise to Spirit that if I was to be healed from this I would do everything in my power to help heal the world. After leaving the hospital I still had many of the symptoms, including intense body pains, migraine headaches, inability to walk without a walker, and double vision. The doctors informed me that it would take months or years to recover fully, if at all, and that they really could do nothing else as my immune system needed to recover on its own. So not having much help from the medical profession I turned to holistic healing.

After trying different energy balancing practices, herbal and alternative remedies, I discovered Sound Healing. After attending some Sound Healing sessions I started feeling better very quickly. After a month of those I felt so much better that I decided to buy my own Sound Healing tools to work on my myself, which I did daily for months. The other alternative therapies also helped, but I found Sound Healing to be the most powerful for me. Re-tuning my body, boosting my immune system, raising my vibrational frequency and making me feel better then anything before it. So much so that I then decided to offer it to the world as a practice, keeping my promise to Spirit and continuing my own Ascension and healing process.

I’ve been a musician for over 30 years, and have known very well how music itself heals and can make us feel better, yet what I discovered and learned from this experience was that Sound and Frequency, combined with Intent to Heal, can truly change our lives and heal us at a cellular level like nothing else can.

Blessings, Love & Light

Gratitude: Love Letters

By Leave a Comment

Gratitude in a Love letterOne of the practices that I use with my clients is to write love letters. Many of us have heard of Gratitude Journals, where you write every day five things that you are grateful for. (And naturally, there’s an app for that.)

These practices have shifted many people and transformed their life because it helped them to see the many “gifts” that are around them always.

Gratitude In the Form of Love Letters

I suggest an alternative to my clients that has been very helpful. I ask them to write love letters to important people in their life. The intention is not to send the letters (although that is a possibility), but rather to help my client shift his/her focus and perception of the other.

It’s easy to focus on TSOL – The $hit Of Life. The things that annoy us, where we are dissatisfied with the way things are.

Empowerment

I am all about empowering my clients in many ways. The most powerful way to empower yourself is to shift your perception because

“When you change inside, everything outside changes.”

– Marijo Puleo

What I like about writing the love letters is that it has more focus than a gratitude journal, where you simply start out by saying “I am grateful for”. The purpose of this is different where we are focused on one or two relationships.

How to Start the Letters

The minimum number of one page letters I ask my clients to write is three and begin the letter by saying “Dear (name), What I love about you…”. By the third letter, they are starting to get to much deeper emotions. They start to see the small things that the other person does, they start to notice much more. Their heart energy opens much wider.

The intention of this activity is to open space for my client to shift. These letters are not about asking the other person to do something different to make my client happier.

Sometimes, It Only Takes One

By opening your perception, as you are more connected with your own heart energy you will naturally start to change in the relationship. The other person may notice that something is different and may start acting differently. It is usually a natural unfolding of the relationship. You are holding a different intention, bringing a different energetic vibration into the relationship.

And that may be all that is required.

I hope you are inspired to try this and I would love to hear your comments and experiences.

    I was incredibly excited to get my Akashic records read.  Even though I read the preparation guide, I still had no idea what to expect.  Dr. Puleo has a way with words and energy that is instantly comforting.  From the moment I picked up the phone I felt compassion and a deep since of love and purpose.  Although she is the conduit for the information, I was aware that I was really communicating with another entity that Dr. Puleo was channeling.  For my own whimsy, I will refer to this other entity as “The Librarian” I had prepared my questions in advance, using the guidelines provided in the prep guide.  During the reading, I found myself discarding many of my prepared questions in order to ask questions that arose during the reading.  I treat spirituality like a buffet, I take what I like, and I leave the rest for others.  This reading had me going back to the buffet and grabbing things I had never tried. Questions I asked ranged from “how do I continue my education and escape this current job?” to “who are my spiritual guides.”  I had never given much thought to spirit guides.  I never really decided if that was a part of my spirituality.  During the reading my sixth sense told me ‘ask about them.’  The Librarian told me of my three closest guides, one of which I had never heard of.  The Librarian told me that this was the one most interested in me and had been with me since I was born into this life.  I did some historical and occult (is that the right word?) research on this figure,   Melchizedek, and I discovered that I had felt his presence my entire life.  I had never known what to call this energy, this feeling, sometimes I thought it was god.  It always had this idea that it wanted me to see the best in the world, and it showed me the power of agape love long before my spiritual awakening began (knowing and having the power to act on it are very different.) What I’m trying to say is: everything in this reading ether pointed me in a slightly different direction than I was anticipating, or provided me with new information that shed light on experiences that I did not know how to classify or understand.  Most gave me a mix of both unknown information and shed light on hazy information. The language used was also keenly chosen by The Liberian to vibrate with me.  I am a theatre artist.  Language used by The Liberian often included words like “stage, screen, direction, creation, script, etc.”  Keep in mind, that very few of my questions related to my theatre work. This use of words struck me so deep that I was moved to tears.  Doors are more open now because of this reading, and I feel like I have a broader field of vision than I had before.

    I found the entire experience to be powerful. I felt uncharacteristically unable to communicate—it was as if I was almost tongue tied. I felt an extreme shift in my energy—which came to a crescendo as you began to talk about my health through past lives. At that point, whether related to this or not, our electricity went out at our home... it lasted for only 30 seconds or so, but I didn't know what to say or do about it. (And I certainly didn't want to interrupt you.) My ears were buzzing... and that sudden change in our home (everything turning off) disoriented me.  The entire experience was not what I was expecting—not at all in a negative way (quite the contrary), but from an energetic standpoint it was very strange. I can only compare it to times when I have been in deep meditation. It left me with a headache—but a feeling that I now knew better questions to ask myself as I continue forward in life.

    My experience with the Akashic reading was mind blowing!  Not only did it provide information that was useful but it also helped me to redirect my energy and focus to more fully align with my purpose which was unexpected information.  I was also given details that can help others who may be struggling with the same issue.  My friends found the information I received helpful to them as well.   I was so happy and excited to have Mary jo perform this reading and it was much more than I could ever have asked for.  Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

    I entered into my Akashic Records session with Marijo Puleo full of excitement and curiosity.  Three minutes into it I had tears running down my face. I was so speechless from her answer to my first question that I had trouble remembering what I wanted to ask next. I have recently started a new business that I feel so passionate about but lack the confidence that I need to succeed.  My first question to Marijo was, "What is my soul's purpose in this lifetime?".  Marijo basically wrote my mission statement with her answer.  I'm now so excited to move forward with my passion and have complete confidence in it's success.  I highly recommend these sessions to anyone interested in self awareness and self development.

    Prior to having an Akashic reading from Marijo Puleo in the last few years I had received 5 previous readings from a different source. This was by far the most detailed and helpful reading I have ever had. Even though my previous readings were helpful, I learned more from Marijo’s reading about my Self than all the other readings put together! Highly recommended.

    Thank you again for the reading!  It was very enlightening!  I was especially amazed how accurate the answer was regarding what is going on at a soul level with a particular person?  I gave no information about the person yet it was the exact description I was given.  The advice I received was unexpected but was a very creative approach for me to try to apply to the situation for my benefit as well as the other person's.  I never thought vulnerability could be the cause of brashness and that by my demanding internally that this person be different creates suffering in me.  This has helped me to not simply tolerate brashness but to look deeper into vulnerability and to see things in a more tender and humane way and also see the persons gifts!

    I was astounded by what I discovered after doing my Akashic Reading with Marijo.  I wasn't sure what to expect but went in with questions that I had after reading the information provided prior to the call.  I received very revealing information for my soul and my purpose on this earth, this time around.  I felt so much validation with the questions I asked. I also received some great information to read/follow up with to help me continue to evolve and grow on my journey.  I will definitely be doing this again and am positive this will not be my last time working with Marijo.

    This was my first time experiencing anything like the Akashic Records and I can tell you how happy I am that Marijo was the one I got to experience this with! This was an incredibly impactful 45 minutes. I have guidance now. Connections were made for me that I have been searching for for so long! I was so elated after the session, further igniting my curiosity on my spiritual journey. If I have one tip for myself prior to going into the session it would be to remain flexible with my questions. I had a line of questioning related to a topic that honestly was answered after the first couple questions. The answers varied in length but were always enveloping. Follow your curiosity! Overall my session with Marijo was a moment in time I wouldn’t trade for anything. Thank you so much for this incredible experience Marijo!

    I consider myself somewhat spiritually aware, yet I had not heard of Akashic Records before, so I really did not know what to expect at all...I had a combination of anxiety and excitement, but hopeful enthusiasm as well. Marijo was a perfect beacon of insight into levels deeper than the base surface, and I felt a genuine inner calm almost immediately during our session. I thought I wanted to just listen attentively, but found myself frantically jotting key words and phrases that profoundly spoke to me. I am excited to look them over again and again as an anchor and a reference to assist in my focus and grounding as well as an understanding of my true inner self. What an interesting gift into the depths of one's inner environment! Here's to discovering new things... we are truly limitless and always learning.

    Marijo had a calm presence about her during my reading.  The information that came through was affirming and helpful for me during my journey at this time.  I received many helpful insights.  It's been a few days since the reading, and I am still processing through all the guidance I received. I definitely recommend a reading with Marijo!

    This was a fully immersive soul and universal truth experience. In my Akashic Records Reading with Marijo Puleo, I found myself held in a space with real love and insight straight into my heart.  The reading held me there for the entirety, and I humbly embraced the magnetism and radiance of my heart energy toward the guidance and perspective of the messages from Marijo.  In preparation, I had written about 12-15 questions ranging from religion, self-development, career, and family.  I was only able to ask about 3 or 4 from the list because every single question somehow led to answers for groupings of subsequent questions.  I ran out of questions!  I recommend this experience for anyone seeking insight and welcoming a warm perspective that is truly unique to you.

    “Dr. Puleo is a Saint for doing this podcast. She has helped me tremendously in my quest to become the best version of myself that I can be. It’s a long and difficult journey but, Dr. Puleo gives you just the right tools to help you along. I also love how she comes from a background of being a detailed, precise, and methodical thinker. As a Virgo and someone whose job is in the security tech field, logic and practicality are everything. Her manner of speaking is very matter-of-fact and I can relate easier. Thank you Dr. Puleo for sharing your gifts with us. I, for one, am extremely grateful.”

    “Incredibly practical take on highly esoteric ideas – When I found this podcast, I binge-listened through all of them. Each one is packed with great information and thought-provoking ideas. Puelo delivers in a tone of down-to-earth practicality with a twist of humor (such as the one titled ‘Is there research to support this stuff or is it a funky bag of woo?’). I’m hooked.”

    “If life were college, I’d enroll in every class Dr. Puleo offered. Each episode is content-rich, well-researched, and logically organized. She brings a level of fastidious research to traditionally “woo woo” subjects and allows the listeners to decide for themselves. Really great podcast.”

    "It has been a blessing to find this podcast. As I explore energy, spiritual care, and intuition, I get frustrated with all of the sensational and unreliable information out there. Finally, someone who is down to earth and gets that none of this matters if you can’t translate it to others. Looking at the research, evidence and practical application is so needed in this field. This has come at a perfect time in my life as I begin my mindful living and spiritual awakening. Thank you, thank you, thank you for putting this together.”

    “I first happened across this podcast on the “Goal and Intention” episode and then immediately went to the first episode to binge listen. So many times I would listen to an episode and start it over as soon as it ended. Such useful and practical information. I am in awe of the selfless giving of such beautiful information. I’ve spent years picking up book after book looking for this inspiration but Marijo Puleo does more than just inspire, she also gives you tools and direction to start your journey.”

Shanti, Namaste, Blessings!”

    “Marijo has that rare quality of holding her ‘expertise’ with confidence and humility.  She exemplifies authenticity and care.  Working with Marijo has shifted the way I see myself, the way I see others in relation to myself; and the way I see myself in relations to the world around me.  And even more importantly the way I experience the World.  When you choose to work with Marijo, and I highly recommend that you do, be prepared for being in the presence of a consummate listener, who sees deeply who you are and honors what she sees.”

    "I was totally amazed by the results of your treatment for the pain under my left which I have had for over 50 years after a car accident left me with whiplash. For the last 20 years, it has fluctuated from manageable to severe pain. I have had acupuncture as well as chiropractic treatments to relieve the severe pain to more manageable pain. The day I saw you, I only expected my pain to be relieved somewhat as I experienced with acupuncture and chiropractic. Within a minute or so of you placing your touch on my left shoulder blade, I felt a growing warmth moving through my upper torso. I then began to feel movement under my shoulder blade. The tight lump felt like it was breaking up. By the time your 5-10 minute treatment was over, the pain was gone and the lump felt as if had shrunk. As you remember, my neck was no longer stiff so that I could move it easily and I could rotate my left shoulder without feeling any pain. That same day, the lump felt like it was totally gone. You gave me a gift…that of being finally pain-free after many years of suffering! Thank you again"
