“Personal Freedom” Sound Bath with Iris McCray

  • McGuireWoods Gallery 9518 Workhouse Way Lorton, VA, 22079 United States (map)

“Personal Freedom” is the focus for the Sound Bath this month. Cultivating sovereignty and recognizing the liberty we truly hold within our roles - despite or even because of our circumstances.

144 Strings in sum of four differently tuned vintage autoharps will transmit information aiding the awareness of our choices through special harmonics. Further, Iris will bring in vibrations from other instruments as well to accolade your journey.

A Workhouse “Sound Bath” is where people come together for a pleasant and relaxing experience created through sound by a sound healing practitioner who is playing live a variety of specific instruments. After a brief introduction to sound in the beginning, the listeners will be "immersed" in soft sound vibrations for 60 minutes lying on a mat or sitting on a chair. Guided by the sound healing practitioner, the listeners will have time to return from their journey and will have the opportunity to share their experience, if desired, at the end of the Sound Bath.

Each Sound Bath is uniquely created with a selection of instruments that could include Tibetan singing bowls, gongs, drums, bells, and harps as well as crystal singing bowls, tuning forks, or others. Come and experience the benefits of this sound immersion to deeply relax, lift, and rejuvenate your whole being on a Sunday afternoon!

Benefits of a SOUND BATH can include:

  • Calming of the nervous system

  • Inducing better sleep

  • Uplifting of mood

  • Increased ability to focus

  • Restoration and strengthening

  • An overall greater sense of well-being

Bring a mat, blanket, and pillow for your comfort; chairs are provided.

The Sound Baths are primarily designed for adults, and it is not recommended for children to attend. However, exceptions may be made for children aged 12 or older who can remain quiet for 60 minutes. To ensure the comfort of other attendees, parents may be requested to leave with their children in case of any disruptions.

Join the Sound Bath at Art of Movement, every 3rd Sunday.
