Saturday Afternoon Sound Bath & Herbal Elixir

Vanessa, Mathew, and James welcome you to join in a community ceremony where they will guide you through a deeply immersive, full body listening experience that uses a variety of instruments, hands on Reiki, and aromatherapy to invite a gentle yet powerful therapeutic and restorative process to your mind, body and spirit.

Please arrive about 15-30 minutes ahead of time to settle into the space.

Smoke cleansing starts at 2:30pm

Come as you are, all ages and persons are welcome.

Our afternoon begins with setting a sacred container. Then we will serve a refreshing and restorative herbal elixir (non-alcoholic) and invite each person to share their intention and a heart share about their journey and where they are growing to build community as well as honor each person present. Then, after a brief break we will get comfortable in a laying down or reclined position for the medicine of sound. We will begin the Sound Bath with a grounding meditation that leads to a symphony of spirit driven co-creation using all sorts of instruments. During the meditation and sound bath Vanessa, Matthew, and James will be sending distance Reiki into the container, as well as offering hands on Reiki for those who feel called. Our time together we will open the floor for those who are called to share your heart opening journey.

Post-ceremony integration:

After the ceremony it is suggested to take it easy. Please take your time coming back into an alert and grounded state before driving home. After spending time activating the parasympathetic nervous system, detoxification and digestion may increase. It’s best to support these processes with plenty of extra hydration in the following days as well as activities that nurture the body and soul. If you experience strong processing or emotional release during or after the ceremony, any practices you connect with for spiritual, emotional, or physical health may be supportive. Consider consulting with one of the facilitators, or another wellness professional such as a therapist, integration coach, energy worker, or other specialist if called. After ceremony it is common for things in one’s life to shift, please reach out via email/call/text to any one of us for assistance along your journey. We are here to empower.

Facilitator(s): Vanessa Lewandowski, Matthew Embrey, and James Cole.
