Yoga Flow + Sound Healing with Lisa

Yoga Garden 184 East Street, Pittsboro , NC, United States

This class will begin with 15 minutes of sun salutations to open the body and prepare for a restorative savasana during which Lisa will guide you through a group meditation and sound healing using tuning forks. We all have an electromagnetic field around our bodies which often becomes blocked by old emotions that are stored with the memories of our past experiences. This sound healing modality uses the pure tone of tuning forks to clear the area around the body, allowing the receiver to release old thought patterns and emotions that are not serving them anymore. Receivers of this healing modality often report feeling lighter and more open to receiving love, support, and guidance from those around them, and more connected to the unified field of consciousness that we are all a part of. This is a "Funky Friday" class and is by donation; or use your class pass or membership.
