Relax, unwind and allow yourself to be immersed in a deeply therapeutic experience using sound and resonance. Rebalance yourself with sound.

The mini-retreat will include a variety of meditations and participatory sound sessions providing you with the opportunity to enter into a peaceful and tranquil space which can have a wide range of health and wellbeing benefits.

The focus of the retreats will be on using multi-sensory listening techniques to develop a greater sense of awareness and deeper focused meditations. As a partially deaf musician for over 40 years, I have developed a range of multi-sensory methods to extend listening beyond just the audible and to make it a fuller experience encompassing the whole of the body and the senses. I have found these methods to be of great benefit to anyone, regardless of their level of hearing, and these techniques can have significant health and wellbeing benefits and are ideal for meditation. The retreats will explore these techniques in a relaxed and informal way, enabling you to develop these skills for yourself. This is not an instructional course but a series of easy to follow meditation and participatory sessions aimed at meditation and active listening skills in a relaxed manner.

No previous experience, or musical skills are necessary and all of the meditations and activities are presented in an accessible way.

The sessions will include a range of activities including: sound journey sessions, drumming circle, gentle breathing meditation, gong circle (using hand held gongs), and simple voice meditations. Some sessions may include singing bowls and other percussion instruments.

Normal contraindications apply for these sessions i.e. they are not suitable for anyone with heart conditions, high blood pressure, seizures, epilepsy, 1st trimester of pregnancy. Please get in touch if you have any queries.
