Join us for a powerful evening of movement and sound as we honor the turning of the Wheel and the shift into Autumn. The Fall Equinox marks a point of perfect balance – equal day and night … inviting us to pause, reflect, and reset. As the days begin to cool and shorten, we are called to slow down and turn inward, aligning ourselves with the rhythms of nature.
In Chinese Medicine, Autumn is ruled by the Metal element, which governs the Lungs and Large Intestine – organs connected to breath, boundaries, and the art of letting go. This season encourages us to clear space for what truly matters, refine our routines, and release what no longer serves.
We’ll begin with a grounding practice as Datza guides you through supportive yoga postures designed to activate and balance the Metal element, focusing on breath, gentle movement, and embodied awareness. As we move with intention, Janelle will layer in the resonant sounds of the gong, gently weaving vibrational support to harmonize your system.
As the evening deepens, Janelle will lead a full sound bath journey with crystal bowls, gong, and voice, carrying you into a spacious restorative Savasana. This immersive soundscape invites deep relaxation, helping the nervous system settle and the body reset. Together, we’ll also co create a simple altar to honor the Sun’s entrance into Libra, celebrating balance, beauty, and the second harvest of the year.
Reflect with us: What are you ready to release? What do you want to carry into the quieter months ahead?
Come as you are. Leave shifted.
THE MYSTICAL:
Sound Baths create a vibrational atmosphere that facilitates a state of relaxation, lucid dreaming and deep meditation. This ceremonial concert is designed to provide an environment where energy that is no longer needed can be released, which shifts the
mind, body and spirit into a deeply relaxed state of being. During the Sound Bath Janelle invites compassionate Allies, Guides, Ancestors and Healing Spirits to arrive and work with each of us in this sacred space.
THE SCIENCE:
Guests are bathed in powerful vibrations and binaural beats that help entrain their brain waves into Theta. In this deeply relaxed state dynamic healing can take place, which activates the parasympathetic nervous system, cellular regeneration, stress release, as
well as, emotional, mental and physical healing.
