Sound Bath Workshop
Feb

Sound Bath Workshop

What is a sound bath?

A sound bath is an immersive sound experience – it is called a “bath” because the sound waves wash over you as you relax and enjoy the melodic journey.

The harmonics and frequencies effortlessly lull your mind into a deep meditative state, while the healing vibrations revitalize your body and help release tension. 

The Class

In this 60-minute Sound Bath Meditation you will be guided into realms of relaxation by Amanda, founder of ALLORA Health + Wellness.

Bridging the gap between physiology and consciousness, these sessions are beneficial for all and have many layers of healing benefits.

This sound bath and meditation, allows room for stillness and surrender, shifts brain chemistry, jumpstarts bodily systems, and allows deep rest and relaxation. The perfect compliment to your wellness routine to help reduce stress, promote self-care, and/or celebrate life.

*Physiological benefits include: reducing stress + anxiety, improving sleep, boosting energy, reducing pain and tension, stimulating the immune system, enhancing creativity and improving mood.

*Spiritual benefits include: quieting the mind, cleansing the aura and energetic field, psychic attunement, and connecting to spirit.
