"Everything in existence vibrates to a certain resonant frequency. Every part of our bodies, every thought and emotion all have an inherent sound. The practice of Nada Yoga is to fine tune these frequencies so that we can embody health and wholeness on all levels" (Le Jivamukti de Paris).

Sound and vibration have a profound impact on our well being, on our relationships, on our creativity... It allows us to become more in tune with ourselves, and therefore the beings and world all around us.

My dear friend Missi Chenier, E-RYT 200, YACEP, CYT-RYT250, IAYT (in progress) of Santosha Yoga Therapy and I have had such an amazing time co-teaching this offering.

Blending Nāda Yoga, the yoga of sound (Jessica), with Restorative Yoga (Missi), this practice allows you be transformed by the meditative vibration of the music in combination with the deeply relaxing practice of Restorative Yoga.

Nāda Yoga, the Yoga of Sound, involves deep listening. It uses pure sounds as a means of meditation. In many ways it is a paradoxical practice - both passive and active - meditative listening and receiving of sound and also actively moving sound through our bodies. This pilgrimage through the body and mind will be guided via sound and vibration. You will be immersed in a soundscape. I will play many instruments, including:

- Tibetan & Crystal Singing bowls

- Chimes and Tingshas

- Harmonium

- The Chakra Overtone Drum - The COD is a healing-musical instrument implemented on the research of Dr. Barbara Brennan, an American physicist, and pioneer in the field of energy healing. The COD is tuned to seven specific sound frequencies that resonate very accurately in the human energy centres - our chakras.
