In-Studio: WEST END 836 Gardiners Road
Join us for an immersive workshop including guided sound, movement and body painting. The event will start with an opening circle followed by a guided meditation, where we’ll explore a theme for you to embody during the experience.
You’ll then be guided through a Sound Bath, experiencing the calming sounds of crystal singing bowls, vocals and other instruments, each played with the intention of activating your parasympathetic nervous system - rest & digest. Gentle breathing techniques to balance the mind & body will be offered. You'll have the opportunity to deepen your vision for the body painting experience or simply absorb the healing sounds and energy.
We’ll open the body with some gentle movement before we learn body painting techniques and bring our visions to life by body painting in pairs.
Art heals and is vital to our well being. Through a guided visualization we will explore body painting and some techniques using colors and shapes to express our thoughts and feelings.Body paint when combined with intention holds a unique and profound power. The act of adorning the body with paint can serve as a fun, transformative and sacred practice.
Go home with your temple beautifully adorned for a fun night out, a photoshoot or simply to enjoy embodying the theme you chose.
Dress comfortably and arrive early to set up your space, and bring everything you need to create a warm cocoon and then experience the body painting:
Yoga mat
Blanket (2, one for under for extra padding and one for on top for extra coziness)
Eye bag if you have one
Socks and sweater to stay warm
Pillow/bolster for under the head and knees
Bring your journal if you’d like to capture your inspirations.
Wear black or old clothes in case the paint stains.
*Paint and brushes included.

ABOUT SOUND THERAPY
There are many benefits of Sound Therapy. Research has shown that it can lower heart rate and blood pressure, reduce stress and anxiety, engage the parasympathetic nervous system (initiating calm and peace), allow receptivity to enter meditative states, trigger the brain to release natural opiates reducing pain and swelling, and more.
