Let planetary & wind gongs and Tibetan singing bowls immerse you in a deep 90-minute journey.About this Event
In a nutshell: November is a special time for connecting with our loved ones who have passed, and attending to our grief with compassionate care. Community can be a helpful, healing place to do that. Sound can be the medium for healing.
In this nurturing session, we'll allow the powerful vibrations of gongs, Himalayan singing bowls, and seed rattles to help us release and open to deeper connection and healing. With reflection and nurturing in a safely held space, we can allow our grief to transform us.
Instruments used: Chiron, the Wounded Healer, the incredible 32" Paiste planetary gong. The depth of this gong is incredible. The fundamental notes that pour out of her are wonderful for the Sacral Chakra in particular, and for healing deep wounds, like trauma, grief and more.
Tingshas, like a miniature gong, will awaken the heart and spirit.
Ruah, a small wind gong will sweep the vibrations over your body for a potent energy cleanse.
A Peruvian seed rattle and energy chime will balance the sounds.
About Sound Journeys: Sound journeys bathe or massage our bodies, minds and spirits with healing sounds. This can help our noisy "monkey minds" get quiet as we shift to a Theta brainwave state from our usual Beta and Alpha states. This is where we relax deeply and experience peace and healing on a cellular level. Some people report physical, emotional, mental or spiritual shifts, such as pain relief, improved sleep, sense of clarity, calm, release of tension, feeling revitalized and much more.
What to expect: Come with your intentions for deeper listening within. I believe whatever is meant to happen for you will and whatever is not meant to happen will not.
Need to know: Please do not wear any perfumes or cologne to this event, as some may be allergic. (I personally am sensitive to some perfumes and colognes.)
A minimum of 4 participants is needed to hold this event. If fewer than 4 sign up, those who had signed up will be notified and refunded.
Please arrive about 10 minutes before the start time so that you can prepare for the experience, and silence your phone upon entering. Understand that late arrivals will not be admitted once the sound journey has begun, out of respect for the group's experience. If the door is closed, please do not knock and disturb the session.
Please bring: whatever makes you comfy while lying on laminate flooring for over an hour: a thick yoga or camping mat, (or even better is a chaise lounge cushion), a blanket and any pillows or cushions you may want for support. I will have some bolsters for leg/back support for those who don't have one and lavender eye pillows. Sitting upright is possible if needed: let me know if you want to use a floor chair or want to bring a zero gravity chair.
If you have any medical conditions that may be negatively impacted by sound or vibrations, please consult your health care professional before signing up. These may include pregnancy (first trimester), sound-induced epilepsy, or mental health diagnoses that may be triggered by intense sounds.
This session is open to adults and mature youth.
Sorry, no refunds are possible after 3 days before the event. (To request a refund before this deadline, please reach out to me. If you are not able to attend, consider giving your ticket to a friend to enjoy.

What some people are saying:
"Annmarie does an astounding job at creating a beautiful and seamless vibrational meditation through her sound bath. The sound vibration allowed me to get into and stay in a deeper meditation than I could possibly do on my own without years of meditation practice. After her sound bath I felt renewed and relaxed in a way that I haven’t felt in months."--Andee
