Sing Into Spring: Equinox Kirtan with Astrud Castillo
Please join us for a community celebration honoring the spirit of rebirth through sacred song! Our beloved enCHANTRESS, Astrud Castillo will be visiting and sharing her exquisite voice along with her band of talented mystic musicians sharing the sacred art and practice of Kirtan, call and response chanting. Kirtan moves us beyond the mind and into the heart, beyond judgement and feelings of separation, it relaxes us to let go and to experience a deeper connection, union and Love.
Allow the power of music and sound vibration to kindle hope and peace and ignite the fire of love and devotion in your heart as we sing in the key of WE. It is the relationship to these mantras that illuminates our heart and awakens our consciousness. It is not important that you can sing or that you understand the words. Kirtan is an experience. It is a practice to release you out of the thinking mind and drop you gently into the heart.
MAN means mind and TRA is instrument. So it is through these sacred sounds we are able to conduct the instrument of the mind. Together we create this sacred union with healing intentions for the whole of the world. No experience necessary, everyone is welcome.

HARMONIZE: Full Moon Kundalini Breathwork + Cosmic Sound Bath
with Yael Haar
Restore yourself with a clarifying experience through kundalini pranayama (breathwork) and an extended sound healing.
This full moon's astrological sign (April 13) will be in Libra ~ which all about finding the balance, harmony, and justice in our lives.
Full moons are times of culmination, when energy rises to a peak. All about releasing what does not serve us and making space to plant seeds of re-focused energy in the areas of life we would like to cultivate.
Restore yourself with a clarifying experience through kundalini pranayama (breathwork) and an extended sound healing.
Yael will guide you to anchor into the body through gentle kundalini warm ups followed by a pranayama to activate the parasympathetic nervous system.
With the body primed for relaxation we will move into a deeply restorative comic sound bath including quartz crystal bowls, sonic chimes, rainstick and the miraculous symphonic gong. Allow the sounds to guide you into a state of profound rest, intuition, and rejuvenation. ☸️ Quartz crystal bowls and the symphonic gong stimulate the body's energetic centers {chakras} which helps to facilitate release of emotional blockages and movement of life-force {prana}.
🧬 The sound waves of both the bowls & gong allow the brain to move into alpha and theta states which supports deep relaxation, improved memory, mental clarity, reduced mental fatigue and deep sleep. Sound baths support the release of tension, anxiety and help to create a new homeostasis in the nervous system allowing you to feel renewed, centered, and deeply restored.

Jivamukti & Sound Bath
A guided Jivamukti vinyasa yoga class that seamlessly transitions into a live-music meditative and healing sound bath.
Expect a well-rounded flowing practice designed to make you move and sweat as well as encourage curiosity and spiritual activation that flows gently into a long-form sound bath using sound healing instruments including antique singing bowls from the Himalayas imbued with healing mantras. The frequency of the bowls create vibrational sound harmonics that impact the sympathetic nervous system by engaging the relaxation reflex, (and disrupting the pain reflex) creating an overall deep sense of well being, meditation and relaxation.
