Monthly Community Sound Meditation - Embracing Light of the New Moon

  • Orpington Methodist Church 19 Sevenoaks Road ORPINGTON United Kingdom (map)

Our next community Sound bath will take place

Saturday 1st March 8-9pm

In Chinese medicine and the Five Element cycle, February sees the shift into the phase of the Wood element. This phase is a time for sowing the seeds of growth. It is the emergence from the stillness and deep rest of the Winter season and a shift towards slow awakening and gentle new beginnings

“no matter how hard the past is, you

can always begin again”

Buddha

In our sound bath, we will nourish the Wood energy of the Spring season and celebrate the slow return to light as we gently begin to emerge from the dark cool Yin energy towards a rising light of simmering Yang.

We will continue to connect to stillness being open to the shift and release of the energy and vibrations of the sound instruments. Sound meditations are open to everyone. All you need to do is soften and be open to receive. Let go of all expectation and take on shoshin, the beginners mind.

Our session is a soundscape where I will immerse you in beautiful instrumental sounds which can bring a nurturing energy to our whole being. These Sound meditations are a great way to unplug from the fast activities and stresses that can often be the reality of life and open ourselves to a slower pace. Sound frequencies can help slow down the brainwaves by shifting from the more active (beta) state to a more relaxed (delta) or deep meditation or dreamlike (theta) state. When the mind is relaxed, the body softens and it is here that we can begin to experience subtle shifts in energy which may cultivate a pathway on a journey towards self healing.

I will begin the session with a guided meditation to relax the body calm the mind preparing you to receive the sounds and vibrations from instruments played.

Wear loose, comfortable clothing. Bring a yoga mat or other soft mat to lie on plus a pillow, blanket and eye mask ( or scarf to cover the eyes ). Come with an open mind and open heart to receive the sounds of the Ocean drum, Tibetan singing bowls, quartz crystal bowls, gong and chimes. Cost of this session is sliding scale £10-£20

Please note that these sessions are not suitable if you are in your first trimester of pregnancy or suffer epilepsy. Bring a bottle of water or warm drink
