A sound bath is an immersive meditative experience with resonant music filling the body, soothing the nervous system, using sound to relax, restore, and heal the body.
This ancient practice works by stimulating certain areas of the brain with unique frequencies, in this special evening of sound healing and relaxation.
The beautiful symphonic vibration of the crystal singing bowls will bring you deep relaxation and help restore balance in your body and mind.
Tranquil sounds and guided meditation will further facilitate the healing process, providing an opportunity to reconnect with your inner self, reduce stress, create harmony in your life, and align the chakras.
Let the soothing sound of our sacred instruments bring you peace and joy.
Join us for a truly remarkable experience!
Students can bring a yoga mat to relax or we can provide mats for those who need them.

History Lovers don't miss this Zoom talk by Dr. James Rietveld "Hypatia of Alexandria: Female Intellectual, Philosopher, Pagan, Religious Conflicts, Twilight of Antiquity" on Thursday, June 11, 8 p.m.

PLEASE BUY TICKETS AT ABOVE LINK, NOT ON MEETUP.
By all accounts, Hypatia, the famous female intellectual and philosopher from the city of Alexandria in Roman Egypt was an anomaly of her age, thriving during a time when so much of what she represented was systematically being rejected by the changing world around her.
A Pagan woman in a Christian age dominated by religiously-charged power politics rather than ethical concerns, Hypatia was accepted by the enlightened of all faiths, whether Pagan, Christian, or Jew, viewed by them as a wise and seasoned adviser, while others, those steeped in the growing superstition and bigotry of the age, cried out that she must be a vile occultist practicing magic to deceive minds.
Michael Deakin declares: Almost alone, virtually the last academic, she stood for intellectual values, for rigorous mathematics, ascetic Neoplatonism, the crucial role of the mind, and the voice of temperance and moderation in civic life.
The violent public murder of Hypatia by those who failed to understand what she represented truly demonstrated that an Age of Ignorance had arrived, the Classical world of Greece and Rome was no more, and the medieval world had begun!
Learn about this deep and insightful woman who fought so hard to maintain a world of toleration against all odds, never losing sight of her sense of purpose.
Hypatia was a true hero, one that needs to be recognized, but, also, the age she lived in serves as a warning to how far a society can fall when knowledge and education are abandoned for power politics and superstition.
