Our community is growing!!

Thanks to all who came to our last Friday night sound bath at . There were bodies tucked in every corner of the cozy space at the Angel Wing in Ridgefield, CT, so fun!

It was so joyful to see people of all ages and backgrounds coming together to share stories, laugh, dance, and most importantly, deeply relax. Some dear friends joined me unexpectedly and really perked up my week! 😍🙏

There’s something about communally creating a safe space where we can drop our guards that feels very protective and supportive and dissolves the isolation many of us feel. It’s different than relaxing alone. Like a slumber party vibe.

For people like me who have very busy minds and have a hard time relaxing, sound baths can be a welcome relief and critical component of self-care.

If you can, please join me on Friday January 27 at our next gathering. I also offer a virtual sound bath every Thursday at 1:15 PM. (See https://linktr.ee/stephenearnhart to sign up)

Happy New Year everyone!

To help encourage everyone to slow down more and invite more self-care into 2023, I’m offering a free virtual Yoga Nidra and sound bath on Thursday, Jan. 5th at 1:15pm (E.S.T.)

If you find yourself feeling tired, rather than jacking yourself up with stimulants, why not try giving your body what it’s asking for: deep rest.

I’ve been working hard for many weeks to make the sound quality of my virtual sound bath as good as it can be. I’d love to hear what you think!

There’s no cost, but you do need to sign up (see link below). You’ll receive a link one hour prior to the event. The replay will be available for 24 hrs.

If you’ve never experienced Yoga Nidra or a sound bath, this is a great opportunity! All you need to do is lie down (or sit comfortably), get cozy, and relax. Headphones / earbuds are strongly encouraged to receive the full effect.

I will lead you through a guided meditation technique called “Yoga Nidra” that’s considered the “sleep of the yogis”. I will also be playing the sacred sounds of crystal alchemy singing bowls and the gong. The intention is to bring the listener into a state of consciousness somewhere between waking and sleeping, similar to REM sleep. This allows the nervous system to naturally relax and reset.

This luscious meditation and sound journey will help your mind release its torrent of thoughts so you can relax, release and regenerate.

Hope to see you there!

Give the gift of a relaxing, healing experience for the holidays!

In-person in Ridgefield, CT. (Available virtually as well for up to four people for same price).

A private sound bath is like a full-body massage for the soul. It's a holistic way to achieve a deep state of relaxation and inner connection.

Sound baths have been scientifically proven to:

* reduce stress and anxiety
* boost the immune system
* lessen depression and negative thinking
* improve sleep patterns
* promote inner peace

Most people find them incredibly relaxing.

What happens in a private sound bath?

Lying down, covered in blankets, you will be immersed in the healing sounds of crystal singing bowls, gongs, chimes, tuning forks, and other sacred instruments. Swaddled in a gentle cocoon of sound, you will be led into a hypnotic state of meditative restoration.

Who can benefit from sound healing?

Anyone! No experience necessary. Helpful for people of all ages and backgrounds, particularly those who:
* love music
* have trouble relaxing or quieting the mind
* suffer from anxiety, depression or PTSD
* have trouble sleeping or slowing down
* want ways to relax without pharmaceuticals, drugs or alcohol

HOLIDAY SPECIAL - $20 off!

Many thanks for those who attended “Allegory of the Gong” last weekend . It was our first experiment with combining shadow puppetry with a gong/sound journey. We wanted to see how adding abstract, hypnotic visual elements to what’s normally a purely sonic environment would affect the imagination.

The feedback was great, and we hope to present version 2.0 in the new year!

Much gratitude for Reverb Yoga, Takemi Kitamura & Claudia Orenstein for their highly skilled artistry and collaborative spirit.

A new experiment with old friends!

Teaming up this Saturday with Reverb Yoga, Takemi Kitamura & Claudia Orenstein to experiment with combining shadow puppetry, gong bath and sound healing.

I was curious what might happen if we added an abstract visual component to a sound journey, which is usually experienced with eyes closed.

Will it make it easier to enter a dream state? Will it make the mind more analytical or spontaneously creative? Will people keep their eyes open and experience the visuals, or keep them and dissolve into the sounds?

Come see for yourself! The best part- it’s free!

Saying YES to NO caffeine today.

Day 35 of no caffeine. Seriously—isn’t this supposed to be getting easier?

First week was hell. Now my mind keeps telling me, “ OK, we had a break, now let’s get back to the good stuff!“

I got tired of reinforcing the story that without caffeine, I’m not sharp, not focused, not creative.

I got tired of sh*tty sleep, bad stomach, jittery, jumpy, spastic body and mind.

And still…it’s all I want!

But just for today, I’m saying yes to putting things in my body that I know are good for me.

Say YES to something healthy today!

As someone who has struggled with anxiety since I was a kid, I’ve found Kundalini Yoga, Yoga Nidra and sound meditation to be empowering and practical tools to reduce anxiety, combat insomnia, and allow me to find a sense of ease in my body.

Learning to focus my breath, exercise my body, meditate or simply lay down and be nurtured by healing music helps me release the bonds that tether me to the negative voices that talk me into varying states of disturbance.

While it's common to think of anxiety as a disturbance of the mind, the way we experience anxiety is largely through our bodies. When we lead the body into a more relaxed state, we reverse-engineer an effect on the mind that leads to a calmer and more creative state of being.

Please join me this week as we explore these practices at The Angel Cooperative in Ridgefield, CT:

Thursday @ 8am: Kundalini Yoga + gong bath
Thursday @ 1:30pm: Yoga Nidra + Sound Healing
Friday @ 5:30pm: Sound Spiral: a sonic journey of deep relaxation

I love watching over my sleeping angels!

Thanks to all who showed up last night for a delicious sound journey at The Angel Wing. I loved the safe and nurturing space we created together as a community to allow deep healing and restoration to naturally occur.

So inspiring to see so many people consciously choosing self-care on a Friday evening instead of myriad other choices.

The next sound journey @ The Angel Wing in Ridgefield, CT will be Friday Nov. 18 at 5:30pm.

OR: Join us this Wednesday Nov. 9 at 6:30pm for the next extended “Nidra-Lini” class, a potent combination of Kundalini Yoga & Yoga Nidra meditation that ends with a a sound bath.

Come flow & grow with our expanding community!

Do you ever have days where life feels full of possibilities, and yet it all feels overwhelming?

That's where I've been lately. Life is bringing new opportunities and challenges to nearly every area of my life. I'm so grateful that many of the things I've been asking for are materializing. Yet

the possibility of so much change has brought up a lot of fear and overwhelm.

I'm learning (yet again) that my rational mind, and its circular thinking, just isn't helping me move forward.

Instead, when I rely on my practice yoga, mediation and sound healing to bring me into a quiet, meditative space, I can hear the whisper of the "QLV" (Quiet Little Voice) deep in my heart that always knows what to do. And then I can FEEL (not think) my way into the next right action.

I would love to share share these heart-centered practices with you and help walk you home to your heart and your own "QLV."

WHEN:

* Thursday @ 8am: Kundalini Yoga + gong bath
* Thursday @ 1:30pm: Yoga Nidra + Sound Healing
* 1st & 3rd Fridays @ 5:30pm: Sound Spiral: a sonic journey of deep relaxation (THIS FRIDAY)

Wed. Nov. 9 - special "Nidra-Lini" class - a combination of Kundalini, Yoga Nidra & Sound Healing.

WHERE: The Angel Wing- Ridgefield, CT.

Virtual classes and sound baths coming soon-stay tuned!

Let the Vibrations begin!

On my way home from LA recently, I stopped in Salt Lake City to add what I thought would be two or three crystal bowls to my collection.
I ended up leaving there with eight.

My logical mind kept screaming, “This is insane! WHAT are you thinking? You’re being completely irresponsible!!“

A calmer voice spoke much more quietly from my depths. “You love these bowls. They’re exactly what you’ve been searching for. They’re going to help heal so many people. Including you.“

I’m so glad I followed my “QLV” (Quiet Little Voice) instead of the tornado of commotion. I actually think it was in one of the more responsible decisions I’ve made in a long time.

i’ll be playing them in my classes at the Angel Wing in Ridgefield, Connecticut, starting Thursday. Details in my bio.

Please come if you can so I can share the magic with you!

✨✨✨Virtual offerings are coming soon ✨✨✨

MUCH gratitude to Shehera Mocellin, Christine Cardwell, The Copper Vessel, Stacey Pamment, & Tania Setyadi for such loving support along the way! 🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️

Classes begin this Thursday!

Virtual sound baths and classes are coming soon!

The next “Nidra-lini” workshop will be Nov. 4 at 6:30pm.

Hope to see some of you there!
