This will be an evening of profound journeying on the sound of trance-inducing instruments and the power of our breath.
The type of breathwork Eostar will lead is an ancient pranayama called Vyana Vayu. It is a dynamic active meditation that will quickly take the participants to altered, higher states of consciousness. Participants will be encouraged to breathe dynamically using a certain technique that will be explained prior to starting. Once the desired transpersonal pure presence state is achieved, there may be emotional content bubbling up, which will be compassionately held in a strong healing group environment. The timeless moment of transcendence will be gently followed by a return to physicality on the wings of sound healing instruments.
Eostar and Mathias have played sacred acoustic music and sound healing music to audiences along the West Coast and South America for more than a decade both as devotional musicians and as sound healers. Their 36-inch Chau Gong is always a special experience for those looking to journey with sound. Eostar and Mathias create sound-scapes using didgeridoo, tank-drums, kalimbas, drums, monochord, crystal bowls, Tibetan bowls, guitar, Gong and throat-singing.
What to bring?
A yoga mat and a blanket. An additional blanket or a towel to fold under your head. We are recommending against pillows as it is better to keep your head closer to the ground. A bottle of water to drink. A notebook and a pen for journaling afterward. An eye-mask or a shawl to cover your eyes with. There will be a limited number of yoga mats and blankets available for people who don't have one.
