Winter Sound Ceremony

As the cooler months invite us inward, gift yourself an evening of deep nourishment, rest, and reconnection.

Begin with a beautiful Blue Lotus Tea Elixir, a sacred botanical traditionally enjoyed for its enlightened & awakening qualities, preparing your body and mind to receive the frequencies.

From there, you will be guided into a restorative sound journey designed to soothe the nervous system, restore balance, and create space for profound relaxation. Surrounded by healing frequencies, you will be invited to simply lie back, soften, and let the sounds wash over you.

Amanda & Aaron will weave together a collection of crystal singing bowls, Tibetan bowls, chimes, drums, voice, medicine songs, and Sanskrit chants, creating a rich tapestry of sound that supports deep rest, reflection, and inner harmony.

We will also be working with beautiful crystals, activating the crystals in the sound ceremony to amplify healing, intention, and transformation.

This is an opportunity to pause, breathe, and be held in a nurturing space during the winter season. Whether you are feeling tired, overwhelmed, emotionally depleted, or simply longing for a moment of stillness, this evening offers a chance to replenish your mind, body, and soul.

Come as you are. Leave feeling grounded, restored, and deeply nourished.

 No experience necessary.

 Please bring a yoga mat, blanket, pillow, and anything else that will help you feel comfortable and cosy.

 Spaces are limited to create an intimate and supportive experience.

Allow yourself to receive the medicine of rest, sound, and stillness this winter.
