Award winning Australian musicians  (14 x music awards in 4 countries) and sound healers: Peter D. Harper and Bobbi Llewellyn- Harper present a workshop about the ancient Australian Indigenous wind instrument called the “Didgeridoo” (Yidaki / Mako). The Husband and wife team will discuss the many types of didgeridoos available, how they are made, played and their use in Indigenous ceremonies and healing.  

Didgeridoo droning is a profound form of vibrational healing. The sonic vibrations release physical pain, grief, loss, stress and emotional blockages. Tune into your truth and become your sound.  Peter and Bobbi use didgeridoo sound vibration, color cards and vocal intonations combined with ancient wisdom to focus on each participant exploring the 7 chakras or 7 planet energy centers.  The didgeridoo sound healing works on each individual person with the didgeridoo clearing dark / grey frequencies in problem areas.

A sound bath presentation will follow.  A sound bath with the Didgeridoo is a powerful and uplifting meditational experience.  A sound bath session can expose emotions that need to be cleared. In addition to the Didgeridoo, Peter and Bobbi incorporate mesmerizing male/ female vocal intonations and harmonies using power vowels/ words which bring participants into a deep state of mediation.  The Didgeridoo / Singing Ceremony has been used for thousands of years to help the Indigenous people of Australia to find their way across the land as they literally sing manifestation into existence. Everything is frequency and so when we tune into the frequency of the land, we can manifest what we need.  The frequency range alters our brainwaves to a state of deep relaxation through what is known as brainwave entrainment. The sound can be felt and heard and works on all levels to bring you back to a state of what is natural.  The Australian indigenous message sticks, Navajo – The Dine` traditional drum, Native American “love” Flute,  crystal singing bowls, tongue drum and keyboard drones are included in their inspirational and healing sound scape.  Peter and Bobbi have presented their workshops worldwide in the USA, Canada, Australia, Europe and China.

When the body rests, the body heals...Give yourself the gift of deep rest and experience the transformative effect of sound at the first of our Restorative Yoga & Sound Healing events. Together, these practices offer you the invitation to relax, unwind and settle into a deeply nourishing space in both your mind and your body, leaving you feeling free of tension, and enveloped in a blanket of peace.

As Sue gently guides you in and out of a handful of restorative postures, each encouraging you to surrender into the support of both the earth and many comfy props, Anne and Rick will create a soothing landscape of therapeutic sound by utilizing a blend of crystal singing bowls, gongs, shaman drum and hand pans to help you slip into a state of deep release. The final 15 minutes of class is given over to a full body relaxation followed by savasana. This is the yoga you never knew you needed, beautifully enhanced by the soothing vibration of sound.

Thought to help heal depression, anxiety, chronic pain, and insomnia, and to deepen meditation and spark creativity, sound bathing calms our overworked, overstimulated nervous system, and specific frequencies of sound can bring both our physical and subtle or energy bodies into a state of balance. We do hope you’ll join us!
