Sound Bath Meditation: In this sound bath session, we will use intentional use of sound to facilitate a shift in consciousness. It is a meditation that is guided by sound rather than words. In this state, the mind is open and uninhibited; the body can rest and heal. We shift our subtle awareness to sensory perceptions, and how it interacts with our inner reality. The experience is highly subjective, and it will be different for each person, each time. There is no ‘typical attendee’. With this in mind, we don’t assume any.
