Surrender and release to the healing vibrations of sound and the support of guided meditation and restorative yoga.
We will explore and form a deeper connection with the 8 limbs of yoga & the chakra energy systems. You will be guided through yin-like movements and set up in a series of supported restorative poses while receiving the sounds of ancient crystal & Tibetan bowls. These crystal and Tibetan bowls are tuned to each specific chakra frequency. Singing bowls create balance in our bodies, especially within the Chakra energy system (light/energy centers within the body). Restorative yoga is designed to relax and restore the body and mind. The power of sound can be best received when in a relaxed and meditative state, such as restorative yoga. Throughout the guided meditation, we will feel and become deeply connected with the true disciplines of the yogic lifestyle, though it’s 8 limbs, along with a body scan to create a balance of the chakra energy systems within us. With the support of a chakra-tuned sound bath, we will fully melt into mother earth and feel the full support of gravity while we ground and let go with restorative and yin yoga.
8 limbs of yoga: Yama (morals), Niyama (duties), Asana (posture), Pranayama (breathe), Pratyahara (sensory withdrawal), Dharana (focus), Dhyana (meditation), Samadhi (Bliss).

Holly believes yoga is a lifestyle and brings it with her wherever she goes and loves having the opportunity to see others share this sacred practice.
Maryzelle: Maryzelle’s first love was the drums and from then on, she had been in numerous bands as a drummer and has toured throughout the country as a rock & roll, psychedelic, and ambient musician. She studied percussion, audio engineering, and sound therapy at Mills college. While studying music in college, she also received her 200 HR training as a yoga teacher and has worked hands-on as the college’s yoga assistant.

Along with banging the drums and evolving spiritually, she tapped into her divine goddess mission as a sound therapist.
