Summer Hiatus

Sound Alchemy is traveling to Oregon to share the sound of the singing bowls and gongs.

Event Description

This sound bath begins with a brief introduction to the unique qualities of the Himalayan singing bowls and gongs, including a short explanation of entrainment and the soothing effects these frequencies have on the listener.

Participants are then invited to get comfortable—ideally lying down—as we transition into a short breath work & toning practice to settle the mind and prepare the body. From there, you will embark on a relaxing 70-minute sound journey through the rich tones and vibrations of multiple gongs and Himalayan singing bowls.

Through deep listening, participants are given an opportunity to quiet the mind, soften the body, and simply receive as the sounds wash over them.

Details & Attendance

• Cost: $40 | Pre-registration available
• Date/Time: Saturday October 3rd | 2pm-3:30pm
• What to Wear/Bring: Wear comfortable clothing. You will be laying on a yoga mat on the floor, with blankets and bolsters as needed for support.

Sound Alchemy is deeply honored to partner with the Pink Lemonade Project to offer a restorative Sound Bath experience for those affected by breast cancer. This complimentary event reflects our ongoing commitment to supporting local nonprofits and bringing the therapeutic benefits of sound medicine to communities in need.
