October 10 - 11:30 am-12:00 pm AND 1:30 PM-2:00 pm

 Whether you have already experienced a sound bath or have been curious to try one, you're invited to join me at New Growth Project for 2, free, and all-ages-friendly sound immersions that will offer you opportunities to pause and soak in the soothing sounds of instruments that promote deep relaxation and stress release while being surrounded by the rustic charm of the New Growth Project farm.

These 30-minute sound baths will take place from 11:30 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. and 1:30 pm-2:00 pm on Saturday, October 10, during New Growth Project's second annual Harvest Hustle: A Wellness Event, this year celebrating 5 years of New Growth Project cultivating meaningful job opportunities for adults with disabilities by growing nutritious food for the community. The Harvest Hustle takes place from 10:00 am-2:00 pm. Before and after the sound bath, I invite you to visit my booth at the Harvest Hustle where you can learn about my offerings, instruments, and more. 

*No tickets or registration are required to join either or both of these sound bath experiences*

What is a Sound Bath? Sound healing is based on the principle that everything in the universe is comprised of energy, frequencies, and vibrations, and that specific sounds and frequencies can be used to balance and harmonize this energy inside each of us. A sound bath is a deeply immersive, full-body listening experience during which various instruments produce specific sounds, frequencies, and vibrations that can shift brainwaves into a relaxed state, allowing the nervous system to relax and release stuck/stagnant emotions, trauma, or energy. In this state, a person's natural healing abilities can work more effectively to bring them back into vibrational alignment across mind, body, and spirit. 

During these sound baths, I will play instruments like crystal singing bowls,  a gong named "Sunny", Tingsha cymbals, and more that produce these sounds, frequencies, and vibrations that invite you into a deeper state of consciousness, serve as an opportunity to unplug from external stimuli, and promote self-inquiry/discovery.
