                                            Instagram vs. Reality
It looks so peaceful in the video…
but last night’s outdoor sound bath was full of challenges to overcome.
Between gusting winds, dogs running around (one even stole my drum mallet 🙃), and a helicopter hovering overhead (twice!), it was harder than usual to stay calm and centered.
So no, it wasn’t the most “relaxing” or “deep” sound bath I’ve ever held, but it taught me so much:
✨ Acceptance – letting go of control when things don’t go as planned.
✨ Adaptability – changing direction gracefully, again and again.
✨ Consistency – showing up fully, even when I really wanted to give up.
✨ And respect for Mother Nature – who clearly wasn’t a fan of my gong yesterday (she knocked it down. repeatedly).
But above all, it reminded me of the power of community and stillness - because even with all the chaos, people still found a way to relax, laugh, and enjoy the simple things: the sunset, good company, healthy snacks, and those brief moments of sound-led stillness.
Thank you  for letting me facilitate this beautifully imperfect event. 🌿🌅
