Sound Bath

November 23, 2022 @ 6:30 pm - 9:00 pm

£30

For this offering, Kat and Eirene have come together to co-create the ultimate Relaxation Experience using slow movement and sound.

As we are entering the cold season, a season of pause and reflection, we invite you to come celebrate with us your body’s need to rest and your soul’s calling to turn within and give to yourself.

In a world where rushing, achieving and the chase for instant gratification are the norm, we owe it to ourselves to regularly make a conscious choice to stop and relax. We are providing the space for you to do just that through guiding your body to move deeply into the Yin Yoga poses with Kat and then relax further into yourself with a nourishing Sound Bath with Eirene.

Yin yoga is a calm method of yoga that focuses on working with the connective tissues – we do not stretch our ligaments, fascia or joints, instead we “load” the tissues with our own body weight. We use this natural strain on the body, gravity and time. Staying in positions for a prolonged time (3 to 7 mins) has a positive effect on our fascia, our nervous system, and our mind by teaching us patience and acceptance.

On a deeper level, when practicing Yin Yoga, we are working with our life energy Chi (qi) ensuring its fluidity within our bodies. When the force of Chi is fluid within us, it means our outer life is also flowing with ease and our mind, body and Soul connection is in complete harmony causing our system to completely relax.

Sound therapy helps the body enter a deep state of relaxation but also facilitates many other health benefits such as: calming the adrenal glands to eliminate stress and stress related symptoms, facilitates relief from physical pain, and brings balance to all aspects of our existence, mental, emotional, physical and spiritual.

In this session, Eirene will play the instruments (Himalayan bowls, crystal bowls and gongs) in a sequence that will support the relaxing process and help release tense energy the body needs to expel as a result of this process. The sound bath will end with a percussion sequence aimed at safely bringing you back to the space, followed by a two minutes silence pause during which the participants will observe the effects the session had on their system.

By combining the two practices, we are helping the body fall deeper and deeper into relaxing states.

This session is for everyone, whether you are an experienced yoga practitioner or never practiced before.
This session would be extremely beneficial to you if:
  • You feel stressed and overwhelmed
  • You experience episodes of depression and/or anxiety
  • Your body feels tight
  • You’re always on the run and you feel a need to slow down
