Sound Meditation Evening (Sound Bath)
Every third Wednesday of the month 7.30pm-8.30pm
at the Virginia Water Community Centre, Cabrera Avenue/Beechmont Avenue, Virginia Water, Surrey. GU25 4EY
2019 dates: 16th Jan, 20th Feb, 20th March, 17th April, 15th May, 19th June, 17th July
AND due to popular demand we've added some Summer Monday dates too! They are:
Monday 3rd June, 1st July and 5th August.
See Facebook page for updates and info.
Cost £5 for all dates.
This session now in its 5th year is about mid week relaxation, allowing yourself an hour of calm and tranquility to get away from it all.
You just turn up, bring a mat and cushion to lie/sit on...or both, whatever you need to sit or lie comfortably for an hour. Some people even bring reclining chairs!
We start with a guided meditation to deepen your state of relaxation and then a Sound Bath using Tibetan Singing Bowls, Chimes, Rain Sticks, Rattles, Native American style flutes, Improvised Voice and a beautiful Sun Gong.
You can simply listen to the sounds, drift off, meditate, contemplate life or not...but the aim is to take a peaceful hour out of your routine, enjoy the therapeutic benefits of Sound and put things in perspective, taking a slice of tranquility back with you for the rest of the week.
This is a drop in/first come first seated session, but it's always helpful if I know who is coming as we can get quite busy! Please message or mark yourself as "going" on the Facebook event page.
Please arrive from 7.15pm to find your space and settle. No admission once the meditation has started at 7.30pm so as not to disturb others, your consideration is appreciated with this.
If you are pregnant, terminally ill, have severe mental illness or a pacemaker, I need to know in advance. If you have a condition that could be exacerbated by variations of Sounds such as Meniere's Disease or Tinnitus please also be in contact.
If you are suffering from a fresh cold or a bad cough, please consider others before attending, as this event encourages peace and quiet.
Parking is adjacent to the community centre on the grasscrete area by the field.

Voice Meditation and Chant
7.30-8.30pm (please note time change)
at the Virginia Water Community Centre, Surrey. GU25 4EY
Dates 2019: 21st Jan, 18th Feb, 18th March, 15th April (this class will run again in the Autumn 2019, please register your interest)
Cost £5
It is widely acknowledged that the key to our healing on so many levels can occur by allowing our voice to sound freely, without fear and judgement. Allowing the breath to deepen encourages relaxation, and connecting the breath to the voice through toning and chant allows a natural state of meditation to occur.
Meditative voice use, such as toning, changes your brain patterns helping you achieve a deep state of relaxation more easily.
In addition it promotes good health and wellbeing by offering all the same benefits of singing (but without the music, notes and getting it 'right').
This session is NOT about singing, making a "nice" sound or performing to others. It is about discovering, allowing and strengthening a part of you that for many people has been suppressed. All vocalising is done as a group.
This session will include:
Guided Breath Meditation
Guided Toning (connecting the breath to single vocal tones)
Improvised Toning Meditation
Chanting
Please arrive from 7.15pm.
No admission once the session has begun.
This is a drop in session but it is always helpful to know who is coming, so ping me a message on 07771 956754

How To Run Group Sound Baths Workshop -
Sunday 14th July 2019 10am-5pm
Virginia Water Community Centre, Virginia Water, Surrey. GU25 4EY
Cost £90
Full payment is required to book your place, please contact Alexandra to arrange this or call 07771 956754.
Please see workshop cancellation policy
This Workshop is for qualified Sound Practitioners or students on the CoSH Sound Healing Practitioner training who wish to be insured to work in a Sound Bath setting or those who would like to learn more about working with instruments for healing and meditation in a group environment, possibly Yoga teachers/therapists.
This workshop counts as one of the additional workshops for the CoSH training.
Some insurance companies have recently demanded that Sound Healers/Therapists be specifically trained in the instruments they use for Sound Baths and have an understanding of how to administer Sound to people on mass, as well as one to one.
This workshop will give you a CoSH Certificate of Attendance which you can then present to your insurance company to add to your existing Sound Healing Practitioner Training.
The Workshop Will Cover:
Creating a Sacred Space
Using Instruments and Voice
Balancing Sound and Silence
Working with Group Energy
Grounding
Clearing Energies
Giving your own mini Sound Bath
Six Sound Baths will need to be written up as homework to complete the training.
This fun and informal day will be a balance of theory and practical.
Instruments (Tibetan Bowls, Gongs, Rain Sticks, Chimes, Shruti and more) will be available to play, but feel free to bring a few of your own instruments you would like to work with.
Tea, Coffee, and biscuits will be provided, but you will need to bring a packed lunch.
You will also need to wear comfortable clothing for warm up exercises, and giving and receiving of sound baths.
