Description

Join Maari for a deeply relaxing and revitalizing Sound Bath with Quartz Crystal Chakra Bowls, an Earth Gong, drums and rattles. You will be guided into a gentle meditation and then you will be bathed in sound waves, gently bringing you into a state of peace and deep relaxation. The second full moon of 2023 is called a Snow Moon. The Hopi tribe calls it the Moon of Purification and Renewal, which is very fitting because the Full Snow Moon is usually the very first full moon of the year according to the lunar calendar. Cultures that follow the lunar calendar, especially East Asian cultures, tend to associate the Full Snow Moon with new beginnings for this very reason. Bring: yoga mat, blanket (your temperature does drop during the sound bath), eye pillow or cover and a water bottle. Location: the Move2Center, West Seattle's Home for Dance, Holistic Movement & More, 3618 SW Alaska Street, with the entrance on the lower level at 37th Ave. SW Please arrive with time to park and enter at 7:15pm when the doors open to get settled for a prompt 7:30pm start. Sound healing: Sound has been utilized in various cultures for thousands of years as a tool for healing. It not only helps with inducing relaxation, but also has a way of moving through areas of blockage to move stagnant energy, release energy patterns and habits that are no longer serving you, and bring your body, mind and spirit back into alignment. One of the best modalities to bring the body back to its natural state of harmony is sound and vibration from Himalayan chakra singing bowls. Placed on and around the body and struck or sung, the tones and frequencies emanated from these bowls creates a sympathetic resonance that affects the body on a cellular level. These vibrations spread as concentric waves into larger circles through the entire body and entrain the brain to move into a deep Theta state. The experience is one of absolute serenity as deep relaxation and soothing resonant sound opens the flow of energy and restores balance and well-being. There are many benefits of healing through sound and vibration including: Deep relaxation Stress relief Recovery from abuse and trauma Healing from the effects of chemotherapy Lowers blood pressure Mental clarity Clears and balances chakras Heightens intuition and perception Removes mental and emotional negativity Improved sleep Relieves pain and arthritis Eases anger and depression Reduces pain and discomfort from Fibromyalgia Improved circulation Enhances creativity
