Accessible Sound Bath Journey - You will be gently guided on a journey of relaxation, healing, and growth through sound, breath work, and focused meditation. Experience a variety of sound healing instruments, such as crystal singing bowls, drums, wooden and ceramic flutes, and the human voice. I have carefully curated a set of singing bowls pitched at lower frequencies, in order to activate theta and delta brainwaves involved in deep relaxation. All ages and abilities welcome; no charge for caregivers accompanying participants.

Healing Music Jam - Cultures across time and place have recognized the therapeutic effects of music on our minds, bodies, and spirits. This hands on, high energy workshop will help us tap into our innate creativity using rhythm, melody, harmony and more. We will explore the use of many different types of hand-held percussion instruments, our breath, voices, bodies and imaginations in pursuit of wellness goals. The event will culminate in an outdoor bonfire music jam (weather permitting). Instruments will be provided, or bring your own if you wish! Facilitated by Neurologic Music Therapist Beth Friedman-Romell, PhD, LPMT, MT-BC, NMT™
