Creating a Sacred Space
Using Instruments and Voice
Balancing Sound and Silence
Working with Group Energy
Grounding a group of people
Clearing and balancing the Group Energy
The Practicalities of Running Group Events and what to consider
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.

Community Sound and Cacao Meditation Events
at the Virginia Water Community Centre, Cabrera Avenue/Beechmont Avenue, Virginia Water, Surrey. GU25 4EY Sunday 23rd April 2023 2.30pm-4.30pm and Sunday 2nd July 2023 2.30pm-4.30pm Cost: £22, advanced booking required, payment will confirm your place. Contact Alexandra to book Join Alexandra for an afternoon of calm and wellbeing with Winter Sound and Cacao. Alexandra has been running Sound Meditation events for nearly 10 years and has recently introduced the wonderful health enhancing and wellbeing benefits of pure cacao to her meditation work. Cacao is a powerful plant medicine and has many amazing, life-affirming qualities that support health and psychological well-being. We are not talking about regular chocolate that’s full of milk, sugar and fats. This is Cacao taken 100% from the bean. Cacao brings natural stress relief, because it contains potassium, phosphorus, copper, iron, zinc, and magnesium which contribute to cardiovascular health. Cacao has the ability to trigger the release of dopamine and endorphins. Scientific research now confirms that chocolate (cacao) helps to relieve emotional stress. The afternoon will begin with a peaceful and meditative cup of cacao. Whilst you sip and enjoy the comfort of this soothing elixir, you will be invited to relax on your mat as Alexandra gently guides you through a practice of mindful focus, appreciation and letting go anything that no longer serves you. Following this, you will be invited to relax more deeply in a wash of the pure Sounds of Rain sticks, Chimes, Gongs, Tibetan Bowls, Shruti, Improvised Voice and more. At the end of the event, following the Cacao Meditation and Sound Bath, Alexandra will have her selection of crystals available for browsing. To book your place please contact Alexandra here. Payment will need to be made in advance via bank transfer to confirm your place. Details given on booking. Cancellation with full refund up to one week before the event. After that no refund. If the event is cancelled, you will receive a full refund. ****You will need to bring ALL your own comfort equipment e.g. yoga mat, recliner, pillow, blanket etc.**** *******IMPORTANT:******** If you are pregnant, terminally ill, in the final stages of cancer or undergoing chemotherapy, have severe mental illness or a pacemaker, I need to know in advance. People with ear and balance problems may also be more sensitive to sound variations. If you are suffering from a fresh cold or a bad cough, please consider others before attending, as this event encourages deep peace and quiet. If you have Covid symptoms, please do not attend. If you are allergic to Cacao please let Alexandra know on booking. Please note that this event is not suitable for people under 16 years of age except by special arrangement. |

Feedback from participants:
"I did some of the warm ups this morning before my music classes, and my voice felt, and sounded, so much better, I couldn't believe it! My voice felt much more 'in my body' and much more..me. " Natalie
"The tongue info was a revelation to me, despite years of choral training when I was younger! I also felt fantastic emotionally and physically after the workshop. The info on breathing properly and the effects of hyperventilation were incredibly valuable and thought provoking. I also thought your presentation and the structure of the whole day was a masterclass in how to run a workshop!" Vici
