About this Event
3:45 Doors 4:00 Sound Bath
Join us for a rejuvenating Sound Bath Experience at Shelby Bottoms Nature Center, nestled in the heart of East Nashville’s lush greenway. As the day winds down, immerse yourself in an evening of restorative sound led by John Paul, a certified professional sound healing practitioner.
This unique session blends the ethereal tones of quartz crystal singing bowls, the deep resonant hum of upright bass, gentle chimes, and other harmonic instruments designed to guide you into deep relaxation. Surrounded by the natural beauty of Shelby Bottoms, you’ll be invited to release stress, quiet the mind, and reconnect with your inner calm.
In this special event, John will be joined by esteemed digitial sound healing artist, Bobby Frank. For the past three years, Bobby has been guiding immersive sound journeys that invite listeners into a space of calm, reflection, and deep listening. With the resonant voice of the handpan alongside tongue drums, chimes, cymbals, and other percussion instruments, his sessions have been experienced in yoga studios, meditation spaces, healthcare facilities and museums and gardens including The Frist and Cheekwood. He’s also shared the handpan’s soothing vibrations in sacred and spiritual spaces across France and around the United States. When he plays, he experiences a powerful sense of alignment and focus, and his sound journeys are an invitation for others to connect with that same restorative energy.
Whether you’re new to sound healing or a seasoned practitioner of mindfulness, this event is an opportunity to rest, reset, and restore—no experience required.
