About this Event
Step into a world of winter wonders with Winter Memories and Dreamscapes: Osho Heart Meditation led by Isha Justyna Kostek & Sound Activation facilitated by Jimbo Talbot.
Join us for this special Winter Solstice event, where dreams and memories come out of the dark into the light of intention, to be released into a state of feeling refreshed, calm, focused, peaceful, and happy.
Let the stillness of the season guide you into a deeper connection with yourself, as you awaken your inner peace amidst the serene beauty of winter.
The Experience
1️⃣ Osho Heart Meditation (60min)
- Moving into the Heart: Focus on your body and breath, and bring awareness to your heart chakra, absorbing and releasing energy through your breath.
- Begin with Yourself: Confront your own pain, inhale it, transform it into bliss in your heart, and exhale joy into the world.
- Include All Beings: Expand the process to include the suffering of all beings, transforming it into bliss and sending that bliss into existence.
- Come Back: Withdraw attention from the world, entering stillness and silence, allowing the transformation to settle within.
With your energy reset, you’re ready to drift into the next phase...
2️⃣ Sound Healing Activation with Jimbo Talbot (30-45min)
Sound vibrations have a powerful effect on minds and bodies. Research shows that sound healing can slow down our brain waves and put our bodies in a very relaxed, dreamlike state. It can also help with physical and mental health conditions. Jimbo curates private and group sound healings that link with participant energies, employing gongs, bowls, Rav pans, chimes, drums, flute, and other overtone instruments to achieve desired results. The experience is much like bathing in sound, as multiple frequencies and beats are played that attune with and wash over you. You’ll awaken, feeling refreshed and renewed.
