In this transformative class, we’ll explore how sound and music can be a tool to give our lives balance, calmness, and relieve stress. We will learn from ancient wisdom and modern practices of how frequencies, rhythms, and tones affect our mind, body, and spirit. Through guided listening, mindful practices, and sound techniques, students will reconnect with the world around them and cultivate practices that offer peace, a renewed self-awareness, and compassion. This course is for ALL - musicians, music lovers, or those simply curious about the power of sound!
