SPECIAL COMMUNITY OPPORTUNITIES

6pm-7:30pm
Next Sound Bath: Friday, January 17th
6pm-7:30pm
|
Evening facilitated by Clarissa Boggess (she/her)
Cost to attend: $10. Limited to 15 participants. Pre-registration suggested. Join us the third Friday of every month for a deeply relaxing, one-of-a-kind, immersive sound experience! From tranquil chimes and singing bowls to the deep, resonant tone of the chau gongs, allow yourself to be transported by sound "free from the expectation of music." Soothe your nervous system and release into relaxation through mindfulness, rhythmic breathing and the sounds of over-tone-rich instruments. Over time, some of the measurable health benefits of sound bath & mediation may be: reduction in symptoms of anxiety and stress, promoting more restful sleep, support in lowering blood pressure, and pain relief. Expect to sit or lie in relaxation while the deep, earthy tones of the Chau gongs and bright, soothing tones of singing bowls and bells wash over you. For stressed and overly-active minds, the tones from the gong give the mind something to anchor to as you learn to release into deeper states of relaxation. You are welcome to bring your own yoga mat, pillows, blankets, and bolsters or borrow some of ours. The studio has all that you will need to pad your nest and support your comfort. |
Contact Clarissa at 205-239-7083 or [email protected] with questions or special considerations for your experience.
