Psychedelic Meditation with Cosmic Sound Bath + Visual Immersion

Experience a higher dimension as Internationally Certified Yoga instructor Rajesh Sekhar guides you through a series of ancient yogic practices focused on:

• Breathing techniques (prana)
• Physical movements (asana)
• Visual meditation on an ancient sacred geometrical pattern (yantra)
• Vocal activation (mantra)
• Awareness of your body’s energy centers (chakras) and how to activate and balance them.

This experience will be multi-sensory, as you will also be immersed in original meditation music produced exclusively for this event by Mr. PJ Beats.

Gongsia Sacred Sound Sessions will provide a live, organic, cosmic sound bath and visual immersion with gongs, crystal bowls, chimes and a variety of other healing instruments . To round out the evening, a communal drum circle will be led by Mr. PJ Beats for those who wish to participate.

Take a cosmic leap into a next level of consciousness as we tune into the frequencies of grounding, balance, and ascension - together.

No prior meditation or yoga experience necessary, beginners are encouraged to attend!

1. Pranayama - Breathing Practices to Channel & Balance Vital Energies

2. Asanas - Stretches & Poses w/ Awareness to Promote Blood Flow & Open Breathing Passages

3. Kundalini Yoga - Practices that work with the dormant energy at the base of the spine -- these include Detoxification, Breathing, and Meditative practices.

4. Visual Meditation - A Yantra is a mystic symbol in the form of a geometric diagram. A Yantra can be used as an aid for meditation. It is a 2-dimensional representation of the subconscious mind. Steady gazing into the center of a Yantra progresses into clear mental visualization of the object of concentration - this realigns subconscious energies and helps re-establish a balanced mindstate.

5. Mantra Meditation - Quantum Sounds to Produce Positive Vibrational Frequencies (Resulting in Brain Hemisphere Synchronization & a More Relaxed Mindstate)

What should I bring to the event?

• Yoga mat
• Open mind (this is a judgment-free space)

I have never done yoga /I’m not flexible, should I come still come?

Absolutely, everyone has to start somewhere. Many students have never taken a yoga class before coming to this session. Whether you are an experienced Yogi or someone who just wants to explore a more holistic lifestyle, there is space for you. All levels are welcome!

I've tried to meditate, and I can't stop my thoughts. How is this any different?

Being able to sit silently in deep, trance-like meditation is actually a very advanced practice, and it is definitely not easy! Mantra meditation involves controlling the input to the senses by creating specific vibrations via chanting and by isolating the senses of touch, sight, hearing, and taste all at once. Group chanting allows the practitioner to "tune in" to the sounds all around as well as the subtle vibrations which take place throughout the entire body, which results in brainwave synchronization and leads to a meditative state. This is a great introductory class!
