Kimba Arem is an international performer and recording artist, music engineer, molecular biologist, classically trained musician since age seven, subtle energy and sound therapist, and a full time spiritual seeker since her transformational wake up call– a near death experience– in 1992.  She was shown the importance of following one’s heart… an age-old precept that finally made sense to her in the most profound of ways.  Life simply couldn’t continue for her– at least not a long and happy one, as she was shown during that experience– unless she found her natural gifts, and expressed them in service to others.  Music, a natural gift and passion for her from a young age, turned out to be the way to put her heart’s joy into practice.

Since her transformation in 1992 which drastically changed the direction of her life, she has striven to incorporate what she was shown into her life’s work. Her overwhelming realization from that experience was that the direction of cutting edge healing modalities, as well as the nature of reality, incorporates the awareness that at the basis of everything is vibration.  This awareness has gone to new octaves over a lifetime of study and experience.

Shortly following this near death experience, while attending graduate school studying Taoist Chinese Acupuncture and herbs, she was introduced to the ancient idea of using sound as medicine. She learned that before needles were used, according to the Taoist teachings (and many other ancient lineages), sound was used to stimulate and tone the acupuncture points and energy/meridian channels.  She has now been practicing sound therapy– including various other subtle energy/frequency based modalities– for nearly 30 years.

In addition to her rigorous scientific background, acupuncture training, and sound therapy career, she has actively studied and been involved in shamanic practices from around the world since 1992. The awareness of using expanded consciousness to tap into healing and harmonizing energies beyond the five main senses is thus incorporated into her work.

Kimba has developed a private practice grown out of her extensive experience and training in sound therapy, multiple forms of energy medicine, biogeometry/geomancy, herbology, alchemy, homeopathy, nutrition, and supplement therapy. She has incorporated these diverse elements into a multi-dimensional approach to healing.

In a private sound session, she uses a vibrasound table tuned to amplify and her live instrumentation–  the transducers transmit the frequencies into the body, designed to vibrate within the frequency range of the human skeletal system. Her main instrument is a quartz crystal didjeridu which she designed, as well as a four-chambered Celtic flute,  waterphone, multi-chambered Native American flutes, , Tibetan and crystal bowls, tingshas, tuning forks, harp, Aboriginal bullroarer, native drums and unique percussion instruments, as well as chants of various sacred and healing mantras from ancient cultures around the world (see demos of some of these one of a kind instruments in the “unusual instruments” section.

Kimba is dedicated to educating and assisting the planet in harmonious awakening and transformation through sacred sound and frequency.

Kimba co-founded an integral health clinic in Colorado called Radiance Health.  She is president, and sits on the board of directors.

Her main offerings include composing and engineering music for media and film, producing CDs (13 so far), group sound therapy journeys, teaching one on one or workshops and other presentations, book editing, and private sound therapy sessions.  She also does music for guided medicine journeys and a number of her CDs are used around the world for this purpose.

Her music for therapy CDs currently in print include: Waltz of the Moon, Vibrational Sound Healing, Gaearth Dreaming, Peace Journey, The Healing Didjeridu, Creation’s Tone, Psychedelic Prayers, The Way of Water (released in 2010), Color of Sound, Journey into Kosmos, and Self-Healing with Sound and Music with Kimba Arem and Dr. Andrew Weil. Her latest CD, Crossing the Great Waters, is intended to help with major life transitions, which include birthing and dying.

Please see Kimba’s full list of audio productions.

A bit more on her personal philosophy:

Kimba feels that we each have unique talents, “our own personal genius,” and gifts that, when discovered and expressed, will bring us health and abundance. 

Because she realized that her gifts– like many of us– might not fit into clearly defined or traditional roles, forging new pathways with courage is often required when following the heart.

It also requires patience and perseverance to attain one’s full potential… which to her translates as coherence between the power of the mind, the heart, our intuition, and integrity in what we think, say, and do.  In this way we can each restore the power of the Word to once again have creative potential within the human species.

She believes that each one of us that finds the spark within and lights this inner flame, emanates a frequency that ignites others to do the same, in their own unique way… and a planet of people doing this can potentially create a major frequency shift– a new reality that transforms our world.
