C E L L O F I N I T Y SOUND BATH & CHAI
Event description
Immerse your body in a sonic journey of the cello's resonance in a unique C E L L O F I N I T Y sound bath experience with acclaimed international cellist Tara-Lee Byrne. Bathe your being in the soothing and transformative frequencies of the cello as we travel together in a full-body exploration leading us into a profoundly restful meditative space.
The entire 75-minute experience is curated for you to be lying down on the glorious wooden floor of Pearces Creek Hall. You are invited to wear loose comfortable clothing and bring a yoga/pilates mat, a pillow, cushions, a blanket, socks, an eye mask and whatever else you may require to fully support your body. Following the sound bath, Tara-Lee invites you to share a freshly brewed masala chai with her and fellow sound-bathers.
Kindly note no props are provided at the hall. Due to the nature and length of this sound bath experience, children are welcome to attend only if they are over 16 years old. Thank you for being mindful of your fellow attendees' experience.
The hall opens at 9 am leaving plenty of time for you to arrive and settle into the space. Tara-Lee will start playing at 9.30am.
Hidden from all I will speak to you without words. No one but you will hear my story even if I tell it in the middle of the crowd. - Rumi
