with Wayne Marto & Tyler Langdale
Relax and renew with a blissful Yin Yoga & Gong Soundbath event that will leave you feeling tuned, refreshed and at the height of physical and emotional well-being.
What to Expect:
We’ll start with a brief discussion on the healing attributes of Planet Gongs, and then you’ll be guided through several gentle Yoga poses that will help lengthen the spine and release any tension stored in the body. Easy and for everyone, these poses have been selected to open and activate each energy center. Then we’ll use our breath to explore a simple but powerful ancient Taoist exercise known as the Microcosmic Orbit. We’ll visualize our breath touching each of the chakras as it travels up the spine on inhalation and down the front of the body on exhalation. This exercise stimulates the energetic body and puts us in an optimal state to receive the healing frequencies of the Gongs.
During the yin yoga class, you’ll be delicately bathed in the balancing and aligning frequencies of chakra realignment chimes and tuned planetary sound plates. Once in savasana, the six planet Gongs will escalate the sound and intensity, leading you on a cosmic journey through deep space.
