Join Garth Roberston for a sound ceremony using a variety of global instruments including guitar, overtone singing, chimes, Tibetan Bowls, Quartz bowls, flute, gong, frame drum, tuning forks and didgeridoo.

From Garth~

Sound: Even before verbal language, humans have used sound and song for healing, communicating and creating community. Bone flutes have been discovered that date back to 45,000 BC; the ancient Greeks used zithers and harps to calm & entertain. While the ancient practitioners may not have languaged the concepts of brain wave entrainment or the parasympathetic nervous system, they knew that Sound, used in deliberate and intentional ways, can calm a person to the point that their innate ability to self-heal activates.

Ceremony: Like shared song & intentional sound, the practice of creating and participating in Ceremony dates back 10’s of thousands of years; it is a basic human instinct. We are social creatures; gathering together for moments of silence and reverence is at the very core of being human in relationship to others (both human and other than human). Ceremony reflects our beliefs, hopes, traditions, culture, and spirituality while creating a container for belonging and amplifying our intentions.

I humbly offer Sound Ceremony: a modality that combines the two for a deep and meaningful experience. Guided by Instruments from around the world, each person that is present co-creates the special container that we all use as a collective pathway into our deeper selves and our collective healing.

This experience takes place on the studio floor (a limited number of chairs are available for anyone not comfortable on the floor). The more comfortable we can make ourselves, the deeper our experience will be. Please bring anything (mats, blankets, pillows) you need to make yourself comfortable.
