Are you looking to treat yourself to a private sound experience? Maybe you want to get a group of girlfriends together for a heart opening meditation? Or are you thinking that a meditation would be a great reset for your team at work? Perhaps you are building out a larger experience, party or event and want to incorporate a sound meditation… don’t worry, the sound carries! (A sound system can be incorporated upon request for an additional fee) Don’t have a space to host? I have access to a variety of rental spaces throughout the Chicago-land area.

I have facilitated over 2,000 meditation experiences during the past 7 years playing in a diversity of spaces including destination locations such as the Lincoln Park Zoo, Chicago Botanic Gardens, Navy Pier, and Willis Tower Skydeck, as well as universities (Northwestern, U Chicago), Hospitals, Private Clubs, Galleries/Museums, and more.

Each session begins with a brief introduction to meditation followed by the setting of intention. Next, we will take some deep breaths, get comfortable and begin our experience with an ever evolving array of sound frequencies. As the sound fades out I will guide you back into your breathing as we find gentle movements in our bodies. Following the meditation there will be an opportunity to share your experience (optional) and ask questions.

To receive the benefits, no skills, abilities, beliefs, or prior experience in meditation is required. So, what are you waiting for?

Feeling Inspired to Learn More about the Science of Sound, Healing Instruments, or Facilitation?

Every religion, spiritual practice, and indigenous group utilizes some form of sound frequency to unite people in ceremony, celebration, and healing. No matter where you travel, you’ll find a rich culture of music and instruments that can often be traced back for thousands of years. We see gongs, singing bowls, didgeridoos, rattles, drums, bells, chimes, and the human voice. There are also decades of scientific research showing how powerfully meditation, in it’s various forms, impacts our overall physical, mental, and physiological state.

If you are interested in learning more about how it all works I offer two level’s of training courses and a mentorship certification program through the Ahimsa School of Sound Healing.
