Relax - The session starts with crystal bowls and guided relaxation to ease your body and mind.
Release - After you are free of tension the Buffalo drum lowers your brainwaves and facilitates the release of stuck emotions and clogs in your energetic system.
Recharge - After the release and flow of energy from the drum you are recharged with beautiful melodies, drone instruments, crystal bowls and chimes.
This is a weekly in person event.
Please be on time. If late enter as quietly as possible to not disturb attendees when the session is in progress.

Sound Session Etiquette:
Seating and Yoga mat Placement: Please social distance where possible to ensure all are comfortable.
Late Arrival:
Quietly place your things and enjoy the session. Do your best not to disrupt any attendees or Sam as he plays.
Snoring:
If you happen to snore, Sam will need to wake you during the session usually with a tap on the foot. This is to preserve the experience for the other attendees. If you are prone to falling asleep and snoring, sitting up and leaning against the wall can also help.
Instruments:
Please refrain from bringing your own instruments including drums, sound bowls etc. There is a natural flow to each sound session that Sam creates intuitively based on the energy of the group, environment etc. Playing instruments outside of this flow can be a distraction for the other attendees.
Sleeping:
Sound baths are very relaxing and it is not uncommon for people to fall asleep. Your body will still receive benefits of the sound healing during sleep and it is also a mindfulness practice to close your eyes and fix your attention on the sounds while staying conscious.
Distracting sounds:
On occasion sounds from the surrounding environment outside may intrude on the session. Please use this as a mindfulness practice and surrender to the sounds while letting go of any judgements. This will lead to a more pleasant experience for you.
If you have any questions please don't hesitate to send a message.
