Monthly Community Sound Meditation - Nourish the Heart Fire

Maximum Yang - Heart Fire

The 5th May, in the Chinese 24 Solar terms sees the beginning of the Summer season. It will have been nearly 12 weeks since my last sound bath when we welcomed in the New Lunar Year of the Wood Dragon and the season of Spring.

As I write this, we have officially welcomed the Spring season here in the Northern Hemisphere and enjoying the visuals and texture of natures new growth.

While the Spring season of wood energy relates to new beginnings and growth, the Summer season of the Fire energy connects us to the joy of full bloom.

The intention of our next Sound bath will to nurture and nourish the heart space so that we can connect to the the capacity of meeting our full potential.

“Carry your heart through this world like a life-giving sun” Hafiz

I invite you to join me for our heart nurturing sound meditation

The singing bowls and sound instruments will meet you with the intention to soothe, calm, nourish and restore your whole being.

Sound meditations are open to everyone. All you need to do is relax and be open to receive. Let go of all expectation and take on shoshin, the beginners mind.

Our session will be a soundscape where I immerse you in beautiful instrumental sounds that can bring a nurturing energy to our whole being. These Sound meditations are a great way to unplug from the fast activities and stresses that can often be the reality of life and open ourselves to a slower pace. Sound frequencies can help slow down the brainwaves by shifting from the more active (beta) state to a more relaxed (delta) or deep meditation or dreamlike (theta) state. When the mind is relaxed, the body softens and it is here that we can begin to experience subtle shifts in energy which may cultivate a pathway on a journey towards self healing.

I will begin the session with a guided meditation to relax the body calm the mind preparing you to receive the sounds and vibrations from instruments played.

Wear loose, comfortable clothing. Bring a yoga mat or other soft mat to lie on plus a pillow, blanket and eye mask ( or scarf to cover the eyes ). You may also choose to bring a soft reclining chair if you prefer. Come with an open mind and open heart to receive the sounds of the Ocean drum, Tibetan singing bowls, quartz crystal bowls, gong and chimes.

Please note that these sessions are not suitable if you are in your first trimester of pregnancy or suffer epilepsy, clinical mental health conditions or have implants / metal plates in the body which may be affected by the vibration of the sounds. Seek advice from your doctor first.

Year of the Wood Dragon…a full moon sound bath

The 10th of February begins the Chinese New Year of the Wood Dragon.

In Chinese culture the Dragon is a symbol of good luck, strength, power and change. The dragon is unique because it is the only mythical creature of all the animals in the Chinese zodiac.

Wood is the element of the Spring season. A rising yang energy representing new beginnings, stability, root, strong foundations. Wood represents possibility and potential. Balanced wood energy is rooted, firm and steady. From this steadiness, growth is clear with purpose and direction.

The Dragon is also represented in Chinese astronomy, where each section of the sky is assigned to a mythological creature, collectively known as the Four Symbols. These creatures are the Azure Dragon of the East, the White Tiger of the West, the Black Tortoise of the North, and the Vermillion Bird of the South.

Our Sound meditation this month falls on the first full moon of the Lunar New Year. The intention of this session will be to clear and let go of what holds us back creating space to sow seeds of positive transformation.

Monthly Community Sound Meditation - Metal Element and Ascending Yin

  • Orpington Methodist Church BR6 9JH (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Autumn is a time for appreciation and nourishment of our spirits. We celebrate a Harvest Festival in the UK, there is Thanksgiving in the US and in SE Asia is the celebration of the Autumn Moon festival. Around the world, we express gratitude and generosity.

Autumn is also the Yin to the rising Yang of Spring. Spring is natures time for growth and expansion whereas Autumn is natures time to cut back and regather ….to begin to slow down, and prepare for deep rest through the winter.

By far my favourite season, I love the shift of colour within nature, the vibrancy of orange, reds and yellows. It is my favourite time of year to walk the nearby woodlands and savour my surroundings which cultivate a deep appreciation and love of our precious land. When I walk and immerse in nature the heaviness that I sometimes carry always feels lifted, the mind more clear and the soul more nourished.

This session will be a call to slow down and nurture spirit. Metal energy, in Traditional Chinese Medicine relates to our ability to slow down and see the true value and importance in life. To slow down does not always come naturally especially when modern living is built around services, communications and travel becoming faster and more efficient.

How might we shift and adapt if we live according to the wisdom of Ralph Waldo Emmerson who wrote :

“Adopt the pace of nature. Her secret is patience”

The singing bowls and sound instruments will meet you with the intention to soothe, calm, nourish and restore your whole being so to help cultivate the capacity to meet change with wisdom and ease.

Sound meditations are open to everyone. All you need to do is relax and be open to receive. Let go of all expectation and take on shoshin, the beginners mind.

Monthly Community Sound Meditation - Earth Element and smooth transitions - booking open

  • Orpington Methodist Church BR6 9JH (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Our first community Sound meditation after Summer break. Welcome back and I look forward to sharing sound with you once again!

This session will connect us to the supportive energy of the Earth element as we slowly begin to transition from Summer towards Autumn. This period of time following the warmth and heat of summer preceding the coolness of the autumn always brings to me a second “new year”. In tandem with the academic year, this part of the late Summer season is, for me, a natural opportunity to reset and restart - some planned changes.

However, change can occur at any time, it might be planned or unexpected. Sometimes, change can be simple and straightforward. Other times change might bring challenge and uncertainty. Change is inevitable - as life evolves, shift and change happens. How might we respond to change with wisdom and empathy for ourselves and each other?.

Earth has the ability to balance and hold centre. Earth rotates on its axis each day and orbits around the sun each year. This transitional smoothness can be a potential guide for helping us to meet shift and change with steadiness and ease.

The singing bowls and the gongs will meet you with the intention to soothe, calm, nourish and restore your whole being so to help cultivate the capacity to meet change with wisdom and ease.

Sound meditations are open to everyone. All you need to do is relax and be open to receive. Let go of all expectation and take on shoshin, the beginners mind.

Monthly Community Sound Meditation - Summer Solstice

You are invited to join me for our live community sound bath meditation to attune and immerse in the qualities of Yang energy. Our Summer solstice is on Wednesday June 21st marking midsummers “longest day” and “shortest night” If you follow the Chinese Five element cycle, we will be in the Fire phase of maximum Yang. The Summer season is one of full growth and bloom. While we are in a maximum yang phase it is equally important to maintain some yin energy and vice versa. This is depicted in the yin yang symbol. The white of the Yang with with a small black circle and the Black of the Yin carrying a small white circle. Everything in life contains opposites and to maintain balance, we seek a way to work harmoniously with both sides. This guides us to maintain rest and pause so that we can fully enjoy and maintain life’s busier phases and not burn out!

In the words of the Thomas Merton :

“Happiness is not a matter of intensity but of balance, order, rhythm and harmony”

Sound meditations are open to everyone. All you need to do is relax and be open to receive. Let go of all expectation and take on shoshin, the beginners mind.

We can connect to this by stopping and taking a conscious breath, giving complete attention to our in breath and out breath uniting body and mind. When we do this, we can truly come home to ourselves. We feel our body more fully. Only when mind is with body can we become truly alive, recognising tension, pain, stress. Only when we are fully aware can we begin to heal.

Sound meditations are open to everyone. All you need to do is relax and be open to receive. Let go of all expectation and take on shoshin, the beginners mind.

Our session is a soundscape where I will immerse you in beautiful instrumental sounds which can bring a nurturing energy to our whole being. These Sound meditations are a great way to unplug from the fast activities and stresses that can often be the reality of life and open ourselves to a slower pace. Sound frequencies can help slow down the brainwaves by shifting from the more active (beta) state to a more relaxed (delta) or deep meditation or dreamlike (theta) state. When the mind is relaxed, the body softens and it is here that we can begin to experience subtle shifts in energy which may cultivate a pathway on a journey towards self healing.

I will begin the session with a guided meditation to relax the body calm the mind preparing you to receive the sounds and vibrations from instruments played.

Wear loose, comfortable clothing. Bring a yoga mat or other soft mat to lie on plus a pillow, blanket and eye mask ( or scarf to cover the eyes ). Come with an open mind and open heart to receive the sounds of the Ocean drum, Tibetan singing bowls, quartz crystal bowls, gongs and chimes.

Please note that these sessions are not suitable if you are in your first trimester of pregnancy or suffer epilepsy.

To book a space, please message me via my contact form . Cost for this session will be sliding scale £10-20. Further details will be emailed a week before the event.

I look forward to sharing sound energy with you. If you use the contact form, please check your junk folder for my reply if you do not receive a return email within 24 hours.

Yin and Sound Meditation - SPN Sevenoaks - bookings open

Join me for a Yin yoga practice followed with a gentle sound bath to close the session

Often considered to be more challenging than a fast paced Vinyasa class is a slow Yin class. We live in a culture that is constantly on the go, requiring a lot of movement, activity, stimulation, and responsibilities. Yin Yoga offers the chance to be still, be present, and work within while you breathe and stretch deeply and create more space in mind and body.

The Yin practice will be followed with a gentle sound bath to close the session.
You will be immersed in the beautiful sounds and vibrations of Tibetan singing bowls and The Chinese Wind Gong which are nurturing and healing to mind body and spirit. Sound bath meditations are a great way to unplug from the fast activity that can often be the reality of life and shift to a slower pace slowing down the brainwaves by shifting from a more active (beta) state to a more relaxed dreamlike (alpha) state.

What is Yin Yoga?
Yin Yoga targets the deep connective tissues, bones, joints, fascia and ligaments in the body. The more we work our fascial system and deep tissues, the less dense and tight our bodies become as we age.

The practice is mainly floor based postures and can be supported with straps, block, bolsters and blankets. Lengthening extremely tight tissues can be a very uncomfortable practice, but using this time to focus on breathing is a large part of Yin Yoga.

When we experience pain or discomfort, our bodies naturally become tense and we use our fight or flight response. Yin Yoga teaches us to reroute the mind and slow the heart rate when we experience discomfort.

Why practice Yin Yoga?
As we age, our bones begin to degenerate, we lose mobility in our joints and our fascia tightens. But a consistent Yin Yoga practice helps to regain mobility and ease pain in the body. Yin Yoga is an excellent counter to the more physically demanding – or yang – yoga disciplines. This deep stretching is the perfect follow-up to intense yoga or other physical activity so you can stay balanced, flexible, and avoid injury.

Key benefits of a regular Yin Yoga practice:

  • Targets connective tissues including fascia, bones and joints

  • Reduces stress

  • Increases circulation

  • Balances internal organs and improves flow of energy

  • Balances our yang or physical yoga practice

  • Relieves tension

  • Improves flexibility

  • Encourages mindfulness and meditation

What to bring :

Yoga mat, blanket, eye mask, socks, jumper, pillow

Book direct via SPN online or via the SPN app. This session will be held at the Sevenoaks Studio

New Years Eve candlelit Sangha - online

Welcome!

I do not think that 2020 was the year that any of us expected but one thing that has stood out is community and the support that communities have offered to each other during what has been a challenging year.

Sangha is the sanskrit word meaning "community". As we come to the close of 2020, I wanted to open a space to allow for reflection, contemplation, release and intention setting as we leave this year behind and move forward into 2021. We still face challenges into the new year however, I hope that we might cultivate a response where we be able to move forwards with the tools for self kindness, compassion, clarity and wisdom.

This session will offer a meditative Yin practice with mindfulness, poetry and the sounds of Tibetan singing bowls.

You are invited to create a cosy candlelit warm space with bolster or pillows, blanket, eye pillow or scarf.

This session will be 1.5 hours and is offered in the spirit of dana.

Please register via Zoom for link to join - click here

I look forward to sharing this time with you

Much love

Yinny xx

Sound frequencies can slow down the brainwaves by shifting from the more active (beta) state to a more relaxed (delta) or deep meditation or dreamlike (theta) state.

Join me to receive sounds and vibrations of the crystal singing bowls, Tibetan singing bowls and the Chinese wind and sun gongs. These sounds help to create a more harmonious and balanced energy in the physical and mind body often connecting with us at a cellular level.

Lie down, relax and be open to releasing resistance so that you can connect to the sounds and vibrations of these beautiful instruments.

This session is £20. Due to social distancing requirements there will be just 9 spaces available -   Book direct at Present Health - click here

Monthly Sound Meditation - this event will be postponed to a later date due to Covid-19

Join me for our community sound journey where I will immerse you in beautiful sounds that can bring a nurturing energy to our whole being. Sound bath meditations are a great way to unplug from the fast activity that can often be the reality of life and shift to a slower pace. Sound frequencies can help slow down the brainwaves by shifting from the more active (beta) state to a more relaxed (delta) or deep meditation or dreamlike (theta) state.

I will begin the session with a guided meditation to prepare the mind and body to receive the sounds and vibrations from the different instruments that I will play.

Wear loose, comfortable clothing. Bring a yoga mat or other soft mat to lie on plus a pillow, blanket and eye mask ( or scarf to cover the eyes ). Come with an open mind and open heart to receive the sounds of the singing bowls and gongs.

These sessions are not suitable if you are in your first trimester of pregnancy

Cost is £10
