Are you curious about how you can reduce mind-wandering, cortisol (the primary stress hormone), blood pressure, breath rate, and elevate feelings of well-being — with nothing but your natural voice?

By popular request, I am offering a second Healing Power of Sound vocal toning series to newcomers (other than my Saturday group). This series is open to complete beginners and to those who have worked with me before. There is absolutely *zero* vocal experience or skill required to benefit from this meditative breathwork technique; if you can speak, you can tone.

This new Tuesday group currently has 2 spots open, while my original Saturday group, starting up again on September 13th, also has 2 spot open (this last updated September 2nd).

You can contact me directly at mail@samaragarfinkle.com for more information/to set up a complimentary phone call.

All participants additionally receive a PDF copy of my "Individual Vocal Toning Practice Manual" for optional at-home exploration.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
"I never quite understood a meditative state, until I started these vocal toning sessions with Samara. I have felt lingering vibrations in my body from toning that have helped me to heal soreness, clear my mind, and even inspire creativity. It’s a life-changing and mind-blowing experience.
I am genuinely thankful to Samara for inviting me on this journey."
- Adriana, Series Participant

"This was by far the best therapeutic experience I've had. Exchanging energy with other people feels empowering and refreshing. It allowed me to connect with myself and heal parts of me I've been neglecting. Thank you, Samara."
- Julia, Series Participant

Isabel Justo (Meta 1111 yoga studio owner) has been organizing these walks every September since 2021. They are quite special and touching events. What you can expect so far from this year's walk:

- Speeches by those whose lives, families, and friends have been affected by issues of mental health and suicide,
- A joint walk up Mount Royal to Beaver Lake,
- Complimentary lunch (salads from 3 soeurs) at Beaver Lake.

I will also be singing for the event this year.
