About us

Behind the Lids is here to connect like minded individuals with a desire to heal and be seen in a safe, non-judgmental environment. Our mission is to offer a safe container and setting for all those who walk through the doors to discover who they are on a deeper level. Our hope is that the community will find the benefit of being honest about where they are in their own individual journeys. To feel safe enough to speak that truth, which will eliminate the illusions that exist in this world that contribute to separation consciousness. MORE INFO: www.BehindTheLids.com

  • Somatic Dance: Movement for Emotional Release with Gina Celso

    Somatic Dance: Movement for Emotional Release with Gina Celso

    Behind the Lids Healing Collective, 1733 Monrovia Ave # L, Costa Mesa, CA, US

    CLICK HERE TO REGISTER FOR $35

    Somatic Dance is a guided, music-driven movement practice that supports emotional release, nervous-system regulation, and deep reconnection with the body, without needing to relive the past.

    While traditional therapy helps you understand what you’re feeling, somatic dance helps you move through and release it.

    Each class weaves together dynamic meditation, mantra, breath-to-movement, and moments of free, ecstatic dance to create a grounded and liberating experience. Unlike an open ecstatic dance format, this is a facilitated, structured practice with guidance throughout—designed to help you feel safe, supported, and embodied as emotions arise and release.

    There is no choreography and no right way to move. You’ll be invited to follow internal cues, allow the body to lead, and express what wants to move, always at your own pace and within your own limits.

    Somatic Dance works directly with the body’s innate wisdom, helping stored stress, emotions, and tension surface and release naturally. Rather than analyzing or revisiting old experiences, this practice supports real-time integration opening you to clarity, presence, and a sense of freedom.

    What to expect:

    • Guided dynamic meditation and grounding
      - Breath to movement synchronization
      - Mantra and music to support emotional release
      - Periods of free, expressive dance
      - A safe, non-judgmental container

    This class is open to all bodies and all levels of movement experience. Whether you’re seeking emotional release, nervous-system support, or a deeper connection to yourself, Somatic Dance offers a powerful way to move, feel, and reset.

    About the Facilitator:

    With a steady embodied presence, Gina guides her students toward self-sovereignty, resilience, and authentic expression, helping them release old identities that no longer serve and move forward with clarity, strength, and choice.

    Behind the Lids Healing Collective, 1733 Monrovia Ave # L, Costa Mesa, CA, US

    Step into an unparalleled sonic sanctuary where ten powerful planetary gongs converge to create an intensely transformative vibrational field.

    The Great Gong Wall is not just a sound bath—it is an energetic recalibration, designed to dissolve deep-seated trauma, clear stagnation, and unlock higher states of awareness.

    The sheer magnitude of sound generated by these planetary gongs will send waves of resonance through every fiber of your being, penetrating the nervous system, awakening cellular memory, and guiding you into a state of profound healing and release.

    This immersive experience is perfect for seasoned gong aficionados who understand the potency of vibrational medicine, as well as those seeking a deeper energetic shift—a true evolution of self. Each planetary gong carries a unique frequency, harmonizing with cosmic forces that govern the human experience. As these celestial tones merge, they generate a multi-dimensional soundscape that shatters energetic blockages, rebalances the body's internal rhythms, and awakens untapped potential. You will be enveloped in an unrelenting cascade of sound, stripping away limitations and allowing for a powerful emergence into clarity, strength, and heightened consciousness.

    The Great Gong Wall is a rare opportunity to experience the full spectrum of planetary gong frequencies in one space. This is an event for those who are ready to shed, ready to awaken, and ready to rise. If you feel the call to step into something greater—this is it.

    Are you ready to surrender to the sound?
