The main method I teach is mindfulness but I will at times incorporate other types of meditation into our class sessions.

This may include Sound Meditation. Be aware that this is more of a meditation session, rather than a sound bath. I will be guiding the meditation and will incorporate the Tibetan singing bowls as we practice mindful listening coupled with a unique activity to make it more interactive. These will be noted on the title of the class on a specific date.

In addition to that, I will also hold a Sound Bath on occasion which would be 30-minute session with multiple singing bowls and instruments. This also will be noted in the title of the class on a specific date.

Otherwise, there may be one or two meditations in each session with time allotted for sharing and the opportunity to ask questions to get support for your personal practice. All meditations will be guided by the instructor.

Class will be 45 minutes with time allotted for answering your questions about your meditation practice.

Fee: $12.00 per each week's class or Studio Membership

Also note, in the future there may be some Saturdays that we do not meet. Keep an eye on the schedule and register for the classes you would like to attend. Future themes will be based on the needs and suggestions of attending members.

2114 N. Sherman Avenue, Suite 6-8 (formerly Northside Yoga’s space) We are located in the lower level of DuWayne’s Salon and Massage East.

Our Theme is "Inner Wisdom, Joy and Peace."

This sound bath will use Crystal and Tibetan singing bowls, but many other instruments, like gongs, chimes, monochord, drum, and more. We may use a mantra to submerge deeper into meditative bliss.

Enjoy the journey of sound where you are completely bathed in the gentle, healing vibrations.

In this session, you can sit or lie on the floor supported by various props, yoga mats, blankets, bolsters, heated rice bags, eye pillows, and sand bags to bring comfort to the body. These are available at the studio. If you want to bring your own to feel comfy, you can.

Space is limited.

We begin with a short inspirational reading that you can choose to reflect on during your meditation. The meditation is 20 minutes and not guided, so you can choose whatever you like for your meditation during this session.

You can listen to a guided meditation, focus on your breath, repeat a mantra, gaze at a candle flame, or whatever works best for you.

A mindful bell is rung once at the beginning, once every 5 minutes to bring you back to center, and once at the end to close the meditation.

After the 20 minutes of meditation, we will have a mindful sharing of our experience with others in our community circle.

Fee: Free, By Donation, or Monthly Membership
You will receive an email after the class that will indicate you can pay what you like.
