What to Expect

As the air cools and leaves begin to turn, trees in autumn teach us a vital lesson in letting go while staying rooted, demonstrating that release is a natural and necessary part of life's cycle. Whether you're seeking rest, renewal, or inspiration, this session will offer a space of rejuvenation to attune to your inner energy and the natural world.

No experience is necessary, and you may participate as much or as little as you feel comfortable. Please bring something to write with and write on to the webinar.

Logistics

A recording will be made available to registrants, for those who would like to revisit the webinar or who are unable to attend the live webinar.

How Sound Baths Help

Stress negatively affects health in nearly 76% of adults, contributing to headaches, fatigue, anxiety, and depression. Evidence shows that music-based interventions significantly improve both mental and physical stress outcomes. Sound baths support renewed calm, clarity, and focus.

What to Expect

Sometimes called vibroacoustic therapy, this practice engages the body at a cellular level, helping to release stress and restore balance. This programming is led by trained community wellbeing and creative facilitators and may include guest musicians.

No experience is necessary, and you may participate as much or as little as you feel comfortable. You can move around or simply rest while immersed in resonant waves of sound that are both heard and felt. Chairs and a limited number of yoga mats and cushions will be available to use or feel free to bring your own.
