PREP: Do your best to have little to no food within the hour before the event for the best experience. This allows your physical digestion to be at ease and for you to be more open to the higher frequencies coming through.
BRING:
The more comfortable (and warm!) you are, the more you will be able to relax into the experience.
*Yoga mat or something comfy to lay on + pillows - this location has hard floors, so bringing whatever cushioning you may need to allow you to lay for 30+ minutes is a great idea!
*Blanket, Sheet or something to keep you warm (A/C may be on in this location)
*Eye mask (blocks out any light in the space and allows you to go deeper - sensory deprivation)
*Having something to write on/with can help you to remember and process your experience
*Please avoid sleeping bags or any clothing that make a lot of noise
PARKING & ENTRY:
Plenty of parking in parking lot.
Enter through the YMCA entrance - the Left entrance. The front desk will guide you to the correct room.
Possible Contraindications:
*If you are sensitive to sound in any way but still feel called to join, bringing ear plugs in case you need them is highly suggested.
*Those with seizure disorders may find the sound to be uncomfortable or overstimulating, so one should attend with caution. I have had a few clients with seizure disorders find comfort and ease by laying farther away from the instruments, while some weren’t bothered by the sound at all. Please let me know if you have this condition. Having ear plugs on hand can be of support.
*Hearing aids - you may want to turn them off during the experience or test them with the sound with me before we begin. Even those that are unable to hear have extraordinary experiences by being immersed in and feeling the vibracoustic sounds.
*Tinnitus - Tinnitus affects each person differently, therefore, the sounds of the instruments may trigger tinnitus for some, while having no triggering affect on others at all. If you have tinnitus and feel called to attend, please proceed with caution and arrive early to test the best place in the room for your comfort. Having ear plugs on hand can be of support.
Please be advised - age requirement:
This is a space of relaxation. If you wish to bring your child, please ask yourself if they can lay still for 40+ minutes and rest with everyone else. If not, out of respect for everyone (including yourself), have your child pass on this one so you can rest.
If you still wish for your child to experience sound therapy, please contact me to discuss setting up one for children/parents in the future. Thank you for understanding!
Cancellation Policy: Please let the YMCA know ASAP if you are unable to make it. 207-324-4942
