Sound Bath Journey at Sattva Yoga Center Do you know that our soul is comprised of harmony?" Leonardo DaVinci In our world full of stress and challenges, it's important that we each find time and space to relax and utilize practices to help bring our WHOLE BEING into harmony and balance. The ancient practice of using harmonic sound is a powerful antidote to stress and anxiety in today's modern world. Sound interacts with us on all levels - physical, mental, emotional, spiritual - and can help our whole being return to a state of harmony and balance. YOU ARE INVITED On Saturday, June 14th you are invited to give yourself a reset with a Sound Bath Journey led by out-of-town guest Greg Burns of Metta Vibrations. This experience can be a deeply meditative and relaxing experience, as well as very transformational. The event will begin at 4pm and will incorporate the soothing sounds of Tibetan Singing Bowls, Symphonic Gong, Chimes, and more. Please arrive 10-15 minutes early to get settled before the session begins. No prior experience is needed. The sessions are created to aid those who are not experienced with meditation, as well as offer an opportunity of deep meditation for experienced practitioners. Attendees are encouraged to wear loose, comfortable clothing and limit caffeine intake prior. Mats and blankets are available at the Center for your use, though you may also consider bringing any pillow, blanket or crystal you desire to have with you for the session. The general idea is to create a comfortable resting spot for yourself. THE SOUND JOURNEY Greg begins by briefly discussing how sound interacts with us, and why it can be a powerful tool for our wellness. After offering some guided relaxation, Greg fills the atmosphere with the harmonic tones of the various instruments for over an hour. He gently guides participants back to waking consciousness and provides time to ground, reflect, and ask questions about the experience before concluding the session.
