There is no better time to take control and dig deeper into our emotional and mental wellbeing. From the comfort of our homes (or armchair), we can seek alternative ways and take this opportunity to try out new things to chill, destress, reconnect – and thrive.
Let the sound in, and calm your mind and body with yoga and qigong.
Chill With Crystal “Singing” Bowls
Reconnect with your body, relax and recharge with the soothing, vibrating sounds of the crystal “singing” bowls in this hour-long class by reiki teacher Jaslyn Kee Ng.
She begins her guided sound meditation while playing seven chakras crystal “singing” bowls throughout the session. Participants are to find a quiet comfortable space, bed or chair at home to rest on before the session begins. Put on earphones so that you can hear the tones and vibrations of the “singing” bowls clearly.
Each crystal bowl is different when it comes to the tones, chakra centres, and “healing” properties. Empty your mind and let the vibrating sounds travel throughout your body to renew energy levels.
Register for this evening session from 6pm to 7pm ($30 per person) at One Heart Singapore at bit.ly/2Rt2l85.
