Gong Sound Healing Workshop

WITH monique 'chandra' derfuss

Join Chandra for an hour of deep relaxation. The gong has been used for thousands of years for ceremonies and healing. Gong sound healing can offer physical, emotional and spiritual healing through deep relaxation, cleansing the subconscious mind and stimulating the glandular system. It is a type of sound therapy fondly named “the smart person’s meditation” as it can bring the mind to a neutral state but only requires you to be open and to allow the sound of the gong to wash over you.  Group classes focus on deep relaxation while private sessions are designed to target the needs of the individual client.

What to bring: Yoga mat, blanket, and your props of choice to support deep relaxation. Otherwise, you are welcome to use the props that we have available at Marcela’s Yoga Boutique.

"The knower of the mystery of sound knows the mystery of the whole universe." -Hazrat Inayat Kahn
