REST & RECEIVE ~Join Sofia for a deeply restorative, candle lit, cosy evening.
A wonderful practice that allows us to pause & slow down ~
Spoken word will guide the mind into a soft receptive state, shared at the start & end of the session, whilst sound from an array of instruments will take up the majority of the time.
Sound baths are a gentle practice, that requires no ‘doing,’ to receive it’s benefits. The majority of the session will be spent lay down.
Be held within a tapestry of rich resonant & harmonious tones, with the symphonic gong oozing primordial & cosmic sounds, woven together with an array of other instruments creating a live soundscape that welcomes you to drop into a sense of timelessness.
As our body & mind is bathed in oscillating waves of sound, this promotes a relaxed state of consciousness to arise, allowing our brain to travels between different wave states.
Scientific evidence shows that the specific frequencies & resonances of healing instruments effect us on a molecular level & can speed up healing of many kinds. Such as ~ Clearing stagnant energy, allowing our nervous system to release & reset, whilst welcoming a more holistic state of balance into the body.
Sound baths are particularly supportive for stress related issues, anxiety, sleep difficulties, hyper tension, busy minds & more.
Everybody’s experience of a sound bath will differ & no two sound baths are ever the same!
What sounds we share ~ When & How ~ Always depend on the session, the season, the space & energy of the group.
I N S T R U M E N T S ~
Sofia will weave together the power of the Gong, Tibetan, crystal & alchemy singing bowls, drums, rattles, swinging chimes, rain stick, wah wah, tuning forks & some other sound making surprises.
