This is an invitation to release stress and tension from the body and to go into a deeper state of consciousness to unplug from the external world and to increase understanding with your inner world. Sound meditation has the capacity to lessen psychological stress, relieve brain fog, and access your inner guidance by deepening your connection to your intuition. Relax and meditate with the sounds curated by Mecca of Elevated Meditation Studio. Participants are encouraged to bring: water, mats, bolster, blankets, or any tools needed to feel comfortable laying down or sitting for about an hour. Chairs will also be available.
