Monthly Community Sound Meditation - Nourish the Heart Fire

  • Orpington Methodist Church BR6 9JH 19 Sevenoaks Road ORPINGTON United Kingdom (map)

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.
