A Sound Bath is a deeply relaxing meditation experience where you are immersed in calming sound waves. Instruments such as gongs, singing bowls, rattles, drums, chimes, and solfeggio pipes create a symphony of vibrations that promote deep relaxation and a renewed sense of well-being.

On the cusp of a new season 🍃- https://mailchi.mp/little-bird.ie/workshops-17992109

26/08/2025

📅 Date: Saturday, 30 August
⏰ Time: 3:00pm – 5:30pm
📍 Limited spaces, book now to join. Link in our bio.

A 2.5 hours workshop combining Somatics, mindfulness, slow flow & yin Yoga, where we will be bringing awareness to the spine through a combination of active and passive poses.

What you will experience:

1️⃣ Meditation & Pranayama
We begin gently with meditation and breathwork to calm the mind. We will also explore slow, mindful movements that can help release tension in the back, neck, and shoulders.

2️⃣ Slow Flow (Yang)
This part will focus on active spinal movements: forward bends, twists, side bends, and backbends. The flow is mindful yet energising, helping you move your spine in all directions and increase flexibility.

3️⃣ Yin Yoga & Deep Relaxation
Yin Yoga is a slow and introspective practice: poses are held for longer periods to release tension and to allow us to connect with the flow of the breath and sensations are they arise. We will finish with a long, calming relaxation, which will leave you feeling balanced, centered, and deeply refreshed.
This workshop is suitable for all levels, whether you are new to yoga or an experienced practitioner.

🗓 Friday, 15 August | ⏰ 7:30–9:30pm
🌼 With Fiona Heffernan ()

Treat yourself to an evening of yin, soothing sounds, & mindfulness: to slow down, relax, and feel good in both body and mind.

We start with Yin Yoga: a slow-paced style that focuses on long-held stretches targeting the connective tissues of the body and that incorporates Traditional Chinese Medicine principles.

After yoga, you will lie down in Savasana (resting pose). Here, you simply relax and receive the healing sounds of gongs, crystal bowls, chimes, and other instruments. These sounds help quiet the mind, release tension, and bring a deep feeling of peace.

You will leave feeling lighter, calmer, and recharged!
