**Join me to explore the beautiful intersection of handpan music and mindfulness, and unlock your innate ability to create, connect, and ground yourself in the real present moment! Bring your significant other for free!**

**Welcome to Mindful Handpan Lessons!**
This group is dedicated to exploring the healing powers of handpan music and mindfulness meditation through the beautiful, resonant sounds of the handpan. Whether you are a beginning your handpan journey or simply interested in enriching your meditative and contemplative practice with music, these lessons are the place to nurture your passion for both mindfulness and music.

**About the Handpan - A New Way of Making Music:**
Playing this instrument is about "Intuition at Play" and tuning with nature's frequencies. "Playing an Handpan is creating a range of sound colors, an ever-changing interplay of energies that can not be replicated exactly

To experience the "lush, mysterious voice" of a handpan we will use the BATTILORO HANDPAN - B2 minor 432 Hz Koray model, renowned for its "exceptionally powerful resonance," you can watch a demonstration here: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYQ_qgYhGqA](https://www.google.com/url?sa=E&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DjYQ_qgYhGqA).

**Meet Your Guide - Coach Jan**
My name is Jan Pavuk, and my own deep connection with the handpan began as a cherished companion on transformative pilgrimages like the Via Francigena and Santiago de Compostela. This instrument has been a profound teacher intuitive expression and reconnecting with parts of my brain that go beyond rationality.

My approach is to help you connect directly with the handpan and your own innate musicality, bypassing traditional note-based instruction. **The main advantage? You will start playing and enjoying the handpan immediately, fostering a direct connection to the instrument and the present moment.**
