We will be incorporating a wide range of subtle Sound Healing techniques from the Institute to activate each chakra and massage your auras. We will be holding an Intention of Love and Joy throughout the evening to create a delightful, enchanting, interactive, transformational experience.
We decided to do this event at a theatre instead of a cathedral so the sound will be better
(Drums, Bass, Keys and Guitars can get pretty mushy in a big cathedral)
"The last event was unbelievably powerful with 8 singers -- each channeling deep and beautiful energies through their voices. We went from beautiful angelic melodies that brought sweet tears to many eyes, to powerfully transformative movements that seemed to release deep stuck energy from the past. The piano, guitar, native american flute and cello sometimes supported the healing and enlightening work, and other times actually led it. However, when everyone came together in the Chakra Journey, Unconditional Love and Pachelbel Canon songs, it was like bringing love into a power. And then when it all ended, no one moved for about 15 minutes. It was like we were all in this deep ecstatic peace that wasn't going to go away. No one wanted to leave!"
This will be a sacred event celebrating the love all around us.
It is designed to help us all to move into the higher frequencies of
joy, love, gratitude and appreciation.
