MEET our Sound Healer
Sound Journey with Jane Scanlan
Following the Ecstatic Dance, we’re delighted to offer a 20-minute sound journey guided by Jane Scanlan; holistic therapist, moon lover and sound healer.
Jane’s work centres around creating safe, grounded spaces for the nervous system to soften and integrate. Using voice and toning, singing bowls, lap harp, and drum, she weaves a gentle soundscape to support rest, reflection, and embodied presence.
This closing sound journey is an invitation to settle back into the body, absorb what has been moved through dance, and leave feeling grounded, nourished, and complete.
