Tuesday 8/25, 6:30-7:45pm, $20

Join us for the most peaceful way to end your day ☮

A sound bath is a guided meditative, restorative experience where participants are “bathed” in soothing sounds, resonant tones, and vibrations produced by instruments like singing bowls and chimes. Benefits of this experience include stress reduction, deep relaxation, and enhancement of mental clarity and focus. These sessions create a unique opportunity for participants to rest, unwind, reset.

Please dress comfortably and be sure to bring a yoga mat or something soft to lie on. For added comfort and relaxation, you’re welcome to bring a pillow or bolster, a blanket, and an eye mask.

Meet the Teacher, Jennifer Ferrara:

Hello! I'm Jennifer, a Wellness Facilitator and Sound Bath Practitioner with a passion for helping others find moments of peace, balance, and connection in today's busy world. I hold a Master of Arts in Psychology and a Bachelor of Arts in Communication with a minor in English. My educational background, combined with a long-time interest in mindfulness and personal well-being, has shaped my approach to creating unique, meaningful wellness experiences. I believe that everyone needs and deserves the opportunity to slow down and reconnect with themselves. That belief and a love for the unique experience a sound bath provides, inspired me to create welcoming spaces where people can step away from the demands of everyday life and simply rest, reflect, and restore. It is a privilege to share these experiences with others, and I look forward to welcoming you to a session.

Meet our newest instructor, Rylee Snow:
Hi, I’m Rylee Snow! I have been practicing yoga since 2014. I am certified to teach Hatha Yoga, Yin Yoga, Restorative Yoga, and other yogic modalities. I am always continuing my education and devotion to developing my yoga practice physically, philosophically, spiritually, and academically. I believe that yoga is not only beneficial for your physical health and fitness, but yoga can also be a deeply healing experience for many practitioners. Yoga offers us a space to connect with ourselves on a mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical level. Connecting with ourselves both in breath and body in a loving and present way supports the mind-body connection and creates a space for deep integration, release, and expansion. I am a certified Trauma Informed yoga teacher and am pursuing my certification as a Somatic Healing yoga practitioner. I offer my classes as a safe space for all to spend time with their body in a loving and compassionate way, finding harmony between strengthening & stretching, activity & rest, resilience & gentleness. I hope my classes will be like honey for your heart, nourishment for your nervous system, and bliss for your body. I hope you’ll practice with me!
