2nd Sundays At 3:30

At the Bower Center ~1hr~

Registration Requested Cost $10

Be immersed in healing sounds and frequencies in a beautiful healing environment to help bring about deep relaxation and nervous system regulation. Chastaneyka uses a gong, crystal and metal singing bowls, drums, chimes and bells tuned to healing frequencies to foster a deeply relaxed state for healing and rejuvenation. The acoustics at the Bower Center are fantastic and should help create a truly magnificent experience.

Please bring whatever you need to rest on the floor or a chair. Chairs are provided.

Sound baths work to balance the nervous system by allowing the participant to rest in a safe and comfortable position and be immersed in random sounds and vibrations. The random nature recalibrates the nervous system, because it cannot predict or anticipate what comes next. Then the nervous system basically gives up trying to figure it out and surrenders to the relaxation response. This surrender is the key to the opening the deep calming feeling and allows muscles to relax and the listener to feel generally calmer and more present in their everyday life. The added benefit of healing frequencies allows the body to clear blocks and stuck emotions or energies, bringing about an opportunity for improved wellbeing.
