Class Overview
A bite-sized introduction to the magic of sound baths. In just 30 minutes, you’ll lie back (or sit if you prefer) while crystal bowls, chimes, and gentle gongs wash over you with healing frequencies. No experience needed—this is your low-pressure invitation to try a full-length session later. Show up, donate what feels good, and leave lighter.

Set-up: Lie down or sit comfortably. Eye mask optional (we have extras).
The Journey: 25 minutes of pure sound—no talking, no movement required.

Benefits
