You can fully sink into it to receive the maximum benefits. It's been well received througout the region over the last few years through private retreat bookings and group events and I'm so excited to return to The Andrew in Picton after 3 beautiful sold out events. The gorgeous, open, warm and inviting sanctuary space boats amazing acoustics and was truly made for this sort of evening together. It will be cozy, candlelit, and so deeply relaxing!All of YOU is welcome here with me, and I’d love for you to join us to co create this one of a kind, divinely guided Sound journey!It’s a wild time to be a human, and more than ever we need these spaces to rest, release, relax, connect and go within.

IF you require them, I do have two zero gravity chairs - reach out ahead of time to book them, OR you are welcome to use one of the comfortable and supportive chairs at St. Andrews as well if being on the floor on a yoga mat isn’t suitable for your body at this time or at any point during the evening.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~More about this experience:Inviting your own pace, and honouring your own body’s wisdom; we’ll tune in and open the space together with a Mantra and be guided through some light breath work/pranayama and gentle movement to help our bodies and minds settle in for a deep healing session. We’ll then be invited to lay down (for 60+ minutes) to bathe in the sounds &amp; vibrations of the Gong and other intuitively selected vibrational instruments (singing bowls, chimes, ocean drum etc.) during a long sonic massage for your cells.You'll receive some hands off group energy balancing with chimes and other vibrational instruments as Alicia travels the room giving us each some personal attention and starts to call our awareness back.A seated group mantra or vocal toning meditation will then bring everyone back from the sound journey gently and help to tap into the potent healing power of your own voice to close out the experience.You're welcome to float away afterwards, but you'll never be rushed out, and you're invited to stay to connect with tea and light nibbles and to ask questions as well as play and explore the variety of instruments for yourself if desired.The beautiful energy and healing that you experience in a group like this is a deep and clear experience of your OWN beautiful light and a result of you showing up for YOU. It’s a privilege for me to hold space for you to witness this.More on the Gong/Sound:With their wide range of frequencies, tones and harmonies; Gongs are one of the most powerful ancient healing instruments. They can quickly induce a state of deep meditation and relaxation as well as powerfully shifting stagnant energy and clearing the subconscious mind.The vibrations can relax your nervous system, remove energetic stagnancy, clear the mind, and bring you towards harmony. The effects are often felt for many days, and paired with Mantra Meditation it’s even more potent as the practice prepares your system to be more receptive.Kundalini Yoga is an ancient technology and a powerful practice for this modern world that works quickly to reduce stress, improve mental clarity, and elevate moods. It works directly on the endocrine and nervous systems to positively impact your life. In this Sound Sanctuary experience we will be focusing on deep rest and rebalancing through sound with just a gentle warmup (that can be done seated/at your own pace) to prepare the physical body to receive.Think: deep release, relaxation, renewal and balance.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~About Alicia/Flowing With Frequency:Alicia Wright Williams is a certified Gong Therapy &amp; Sound Healing Practitioner, Kundalini Yoga &amp; Meditation Teacher, Frequency Keeper &amp; Energy Healer.
