Autumn Intentions Sound Bath - Friday, Oct. 20. 6:30-7:30PM Fall represents a change in direction. Less planting, more harvest. Less daylight, more darkness. Our way of being must change to adapt to our physiological needs. Join us for this opportunity to gather, reset the body with a gentle yoga practice, then restore and set intentions with a guided meditation and sound bath. Sounds baths are an opportunity to unplug from external stimuli and gain perspective on what’s going on within your body and mind. The soothing sounds and vibrations of our crystal singing bowls, chimes, drum and gong, allow your brain waves to slow, shifting from an active state to a resting state, which down-regulates the nervous system, lowers your blood pressure, and allows for healing. You feel the physical and mental benefits of this experience immediately. Comfort is key. Dress in layers. Mats, bolsters, blankets will be available to borrow, but you are welcome to bring your comfort items (eye pillow, sleeping bag, etc.). The sound bath can be experienced either seated or lying down.
