Introduction to Sound Healing for Adults
Instructors: Venessa Frysztacki & James Pfaff Thursdays: Jan 11, Jan 25, Feb 8, Feb 22, Mar 7, Mar 21 (any or all dates) Time: 11:15am to 12:15pm Location: The Center in Oak Harbor (51 SE Jerome St. Oak Harbor) Age: 18+ Cost: $10 Per Person Per Session Lay back, close your eyes and experience the easiest way to meditate! Relax into the sacred sounds of the gong and enjoy its many potential benefits, such as reducing stress, depression and inflammation, inducing deep relaxation, and leaving you feeling lighter and rejuvenated. The more comfortable you are, the more you will be able to relax into the experience, so bringing whatever cushioning you may need to allow you to lay on the floor for 30+ minutes is a great idea! We recommend a yoga or thicker mat to lay on, as well as one or two pillows for under the head and knees, and a light blanket or sheet for warmth. There are also chairs available for those who do not wish to, or cannot, lay comfortably on the floor. You may also wish to bring an eye mask to block out the light and focus inward, a journal to write down any thoughts after the meditation and a water bottle to stay hydrated. We look forward to sharing these healing sounds with you! Evening sessions to come. |
