Didgeridoo Sound Bath Workshop w/ Harper & Midwest Kind
Saturday, November 9, 2024 5-6:30pm
Didgeridoo Sound Therapy/Sound Bath Experience with Peter D. Harper & Bobbi Llewellyn-Harper from the Award winning band Harper and Midwest Kind
Award winning Australian musicians (14x music awards in 4 countries) and sound healers Peter D. Harper and Bobbi Llewellyn- Harper present a workshop about the ancient Australian Aboriginal wind instrument called the “Didgeridoo” (Yidaki / Mako). The Husband and wife team will discuss the many types of didgeridoos available, how they are made, played and their use in Indigenous ceremonies and healing.
Didgeridoo sound healing therapy is a profound form of vibrational healing. The sonic vibrations release physical pain, grief, loss, stress and emotional blockages. Tune into your truth and become your sound. Peter and Bobbi use didgeridoo sound vibration, color cards and vocal intonations to focus on each participant exploring the 7 chakras or 7 planet energy centers. The sound healing works on each individual person with the didgeridoo clearing dark / grey frequencies in problem areas.
After a short intermission, a sound bath presentation will follow. A sound bath with the Didgeridoo is a powerful and uplifting meditational experience. A sound bath session can expose emotions that need to be cleared. The Didgeridoo has been used for thousands of years to help the Aboriginal people of Australia to find their way across the land as they literally sing manifestation into existence. Everything is frequency and so when they tune into the frequency of the land, they manifest what they need. Therefore the Didgeridoo shows us who we really are and what is our truth. The low frequency range alters our brainwaves to a state of deep relaxation through what is known as brainwave entrainment. The sound can be felt and heard and works on all levels to bring you back to a state of what is natural.
Peter and Bobbi also incorporate male/ female vocal intonations/ harmonies, Australian indigenous message sticks, Navajo – The Dine` traditional drum, Native American “love” Flute, singing bowls, tongue drum and keyboard drones. Peter and Bobbi have presented their workshops worldwide in the USA, Canada, Australia, Europe and China.
Yoga Nidra with Healing Sound w/ Cindy Boschman
Thursdays, 6-7pm
Yoga Nidra is an ancient Yoga practice and Sound Healing is an ancient multicultural practice. Both are used to facilitate relaxation, balance, and healing. Yoga Nidra is a form of guided meditation and Swami Satyananda Saraswati wrote "Yoga Nidra is a systematic method of inducing complete physical mental, and emotional relaxation." Sound Healing uses musical instruments and their frequencies and vibrations to achieve deep relaxation and balance. The combination of these 2 ancient practices, where various instruments are used to enhance and deepen the stages of Yoga Nidra, is powerfully synergistic.
Join us on this journey of self discovery.
Our culture and our modern environment have become very noisy and very loud. This modern landscape is rife with an inordinate and constant amount of information competing for our attention, which our brains are not designed to process. We've grown desensitized to our own inner landscape in which stillness and subtly reside. A place where freedom, wholeness and love abound.
Sacred sound vibration therapy is a powerful non-invasive healing modality beneficial to restoring our well-being, heart, mind and body. To bring order where there is none.
When we enter into the field of sacred sound in a state of total relaxation with intention, healing and connection to a higher consciousness can take place. We can then approach the day ahead with a more open heart and calm mind, while simultaneously being a bright light to the people in our life.
Most people feel refreshed and at ease while actually looking rested and radiant following a sound journey, which is also known as a sound healing or a sound bath. The experience is unique to each individual and may include physical sensations, visual images, a range of emotions, creative insights or even deep sleep.
There can be moments of intensity, which will pass if one remains relaxed, and likewise moments of heightened clarity. One’s sense of time and space is usually altered during the sound journey, often making it difficult to determine just how much time has passed.
A marked increase in alpha and theta brainwave activity has been observed when one is exposed to the vibrations and sound frequencies of crystal singing bowls and gongs. Simultaneously, breathing becomes softer, the pulse and heart rate decrease and the participant feels more connected with her or his inner world.
There is an effortless beauty in receiving a sound journey, as the participant is not required to DO anything other than lay in a comfortable position, relax, listen, feel and receive the tones and vibration.
