Mayu Sounds
Wellness studio in the heart of The Hague dedicated to guide your healing journey. We offer sound therapy treatments, classes, workshops, sound meditations, sound journeys and concerts.
Our Studio
At Mayu Sounds you can take a complete Sound Healing program to achieve harmonization, balance and revitalization in a holistic way. Our mission is to guide you on the path of self-healing. In our studio, you'll learn how to use some of our sound therapy instruments in combination with gentle breathing exercises.
We do a diverse range of sound therapy treatments, diverse classes including voice toning, sound healing, soft breathwork practices, sound meditation. We organize regular workshops and monthly sound journeys.
In our studio you can experience a deep energy healing moment receiving a sound therapy treatment. The person receiving the treatment takes place on a comfortable yoga mat with soft blankets and cushions and then the practitioner will carefully work with a range of vibrational instruments, placing them around your body to create a resonant energy field, and also directly on certain energy points for a deeper harmonization.
We welcome you to participate in our program to help you with practical training and guidance to integrate sound as a valuable healing tool in your daily life.
About
MARIELA AÑAZCO launched Mayu Sounds with the belief that through the power of sound we can cultivate self-awareness, balance our energy, reduce stress and spark our creativity to foster a mindful lifestyle.
Mariela is an experienced musician, she has been working as a choir conductor for many years with amateur students and professional musicians, including extensive work with renowned ensembles specializing in Medieval and Renaissance music. Her musical journey, spanning from Ecuador to Argentina and Europe, has enriched her knowledge and honed her skills. She studied choir conducting and singing under renowned mentors at prestigious institutions such as the Instituto Superior de Arte in Cuba, Instituto Universitario Nacional del Arte in Argentina and at the Utrecht Conservatorium in The Netherlands.
Mariela's journey as a musician sparked a desire for something more, a deeper connection to her own well-being. She discovered the incredible potential of sound experiences to revitalize both body and mind. This led her to embrace a new chapter as a sound therapist, learning her skills from the well-known sound therapists Michel Averard and Nestor Kornblum at their inspiring Dom Center in Alicante, Spain.
It is because of her extensive education and training, along with her diverse professional musical experiences, that Mariela has developed an expertise; one that she has sculpted into her own philosophy. Now Mariela is dedicated to empowering others to find their own harmony through the magic power of sound. This vision is the heart of Mayu Sounds in Den Haag.
MAYU | RIVER
The term 'mayu,' meaning 'river' in Quechua, serves as a metaphor for the flow of energy and the transformative potential of sound waves. The inherent ability of healing sounds created by specific instruments tuned in therapeutic frequencies, can influence the human body, which is largely composed of water.
The vibration produced by these instruments interact with the body's cells, encouraging them to resonate at their natural and healthy frequencies. This process can help you to restore balance within your body, leading to improved mental health and enhanced immune function.
What is Sound Therapy?
Sound therapy is an alternative healing method that uses sound meditations and different healing instruments to promote awareness and well-being. Specific frequencies are played in therapeutic ways to bring you to a deep relaxation, reduce stress, regulate your energy flow and stimulate mental clarity.
Research demonstrates the positive influence of sound on emotions and sensations, stimulating the brain’s emotional center and reducing pain relief. People who had never done a sound meditation, experienced significantly less tension and anxiety, feeling more balance and relaxed after a class. The variety of healing sounds is a valuable tool for supporting wellness in daily life.
