Shamans use sound to enter trance states for healing and accessing other worlds, and for causing shifts and changes in their own and other peoples’ energy fields. Sound has powerful effects on the body, the brain and the mind, and the sounds made by rattles are said by native peoples around the world to attract the attention of helpful Spirits.
