Helen has been part of the heart and story of Elephant Rooms from the very beginning, and so much of what this place has become is thanks to her vision, energy and care for the community.

Wishing you a beautiful birthday Helen, and thank you for everything you’ve brought into this space and the people who gather here 💛

On we're reflecting on what we hear from attendees of our concessionary programmes of complimentary therapies, classes and funded courses...

🕸 This spidergram shows how attendees self scored on a range of wellbeing indicators before and after a programme with us

🥱 As a baseline, people come to us unsatisfied with their current sleep; from 2022 to 2024 74% of attendees were not happy with their quality of sleep and only 7% reported good sleep before starting a programme

😴 Sleep is a wellbeing indicator which we consistently see a measured improvement in following our programmes and courses

😌 From 2022 to 2024 78% of concession programmes and funded course attendees feeding back to us reported an improvement in their sleep

😃 Anecdotally, we often hear that good quality sleep also supports other indicators and overall wellbeing, particularly reducing pain, increasing energy levels and improving mental and emotional resilience

So, we think sleep is amazing, and we love seeing all the benefits of better sleep energing from what we offer...

🌙🌚✨️ Happy world sleep day, from all of us at Elephant Rooms

Sweet dreams 😊

A Weekend of Voice & Sound with Ravi Freeman at Elephant Rooms! 🎶

We’re excited to welcome Ravi Freeman to Elephant Rooms for a special weekend of music, voice and sound exploration.

Ravi is an international musician, sound explorer and teacher whose work blends ancient vocal practices, world music traditions and sound healing. His workshops invite people to reconnect with the natural power of the human voice — whether you’re a singer or someone who’s simply curious to explore. 👀

Over the weekend Ravi will be offering two different experiences with us:

✨ Saturday, 11th April // 6 - 9 pm // £25
Kirtan, Cacao & Sound — An uplifting evening of devotional singing, cacao ceremony and a relaxing sound journey. A beautiful way to drop into the heart through music and shared voice.

✨ Sunday, 12th April // 10 am - 5 pm // £65
Vocal Discovery Day — A full day immersive workshop exploring the depth and potential of the human voice through overtone singing, chakra toning, chants, vocal exploration and sound journey.

This workshop is open to everyone — no singing experience needed. Many people discover completely new dimensions of their voice in these sessions.

If you’ve ever felt curious about your voice, this day offers a rare chance to explore it in a supportive and playful space.

Spaces are limited for both events.
