New Program: Sound Healing
Thursdays at 10:00am
Please join us as Misty, a certified sound healer, guides us through a sound healing meditation that provides a wonderful opportunity for deep healing and relaxation. Sound healing has been scientifically researched and acclaimed as a gentle and effective tool for mind-body wellness. It has been proven to facilitate concentration, relaxation, creativity, and pain management. The benefits can be felt after one session, although there are long term benefits from repeated sessions.
Participants will remain seated in a position that is most comfortable for them. This may mean in chairs or lying down. If you choose the latter, please bring a yoga mat as well as 2 blankets and 2 pillows for comfort and support. With the room dimly lit, we will begin a short meditation to settle in and quiet the mind before we relax to the sounds of the frame drum, quartz crystal singing bowls, koshi chimes, and more. This is truly a beautiful way to calm the nervous system, connect with self, and gain clarity of our inner being.
Sound healing benefits:
-reduces stress and anxiety
-lowers blood pressure
-increases circulation and blood flow
-balances both hemispheres of the brain
-increases mental and emotional clarity
-brings deep relaxation and eases pain
-improves quality of sleep
-increases ability to concentrate
-inspires deep meditative states and deepen all
