Join Certified Meditation Instructor Camille Sacco for community + connection, and to learn the basics of meditation and to experience a crystal bowl sound bath.
Part meditation, part listening exercise, Sound Baths are healing musical performances played with crystal singing bowls and chimes. They can be very therapeutic because you are literally bathed in sound waves, where you will enter a state of deep relaxation. Sound baths help facilitate shifts in our brainwaves by using entrainment. Entrainment synchronizes our brainwaves by providing a stable frequency which the brainwaves can attune to. By listening to the rhythm and frequencies of the crystal bowls, we can downshift our normal beta state (normal waking consciousness) to alpha (relaxed consciousness) and even reach theta (meditative state) where profound learning, healing and growth can occur.
This sound healing experience is designed to clear and release negative energy, open your heart, and promote a quieter state of mind. The harmonious sounds are created to support your body’s natural healing processes while you recline on blankets and pillows. After the session, you’ll leave feeling mentally and physically rested, ready to enjoy the peace and tranquility of a healthy mind, body and spirit.

Happiness is a positive mental and emotional state — the presence of positive emotions and the absence of negative ones. Meaning, on the other hand, is bigger; it lies in connecting and contributing to something beyond the self.
