About this Event
Class facilitators: Tara Marshall, RCC, and Sarah DiFederico, RSW, two therapists dedicated to supporting women's mental health and well-being.
This sound bath will be a fit for women who are experiencing mind-and-body-related divergence, for example:
- “Brain fog” (Persistent trouble focusing, usually leading to negative consequences)
- ADHD or related neurodivergence in the brain’s executive functioning
- Hormonal dysregulation (Eg: pregnancy, perimenopause/menopause, other)
- Nervous system dysregulation (living in extreme “hypo” or “hyper’ aroused states)
- Living in ongoing distress causing difficulty with executive function
- Feeling like you are holding your breath and bracing for something bad to happen and are constantly overthinking
Traditional meditation doesn’t always fit for everyone and can be a "hit" and "miss" experience. Many people can’t automatically “shut down” their brain and lie still. We try; we know how good meditation can be for our mental health, but we also know we can’t always do it.
We have cherry-picked evidence-based techniques that support focus, nervous system regulation, and neuroplasticity. We have cherry-picked evidence-based techniques that support focus and nervous system regulation and neuroplasticity.
In this class, the facilitators will guide you through structured exercises and leave plenty of time for free-flow, letting your mind and body go where they may as you bathe in the sound.
What to bring: Please bring a yoga mat, pillow, blanket, or anything else that helps you feel comfortable.
What to expect: A room of women coming together to simply be. No meditation or sound-bath experience necessary.
