Sound Baths
at the braham event center
What is a sound bath? Sound baths are an immersive experience in the resonance of frosted crystal singing bowls. Sound baths harmonize and balance the body and mind, leaving you relaxed and restored. You will be guided verbally throughout the practice, so you can set your thinking mind aside and simply settle in and enjoy the tonal reverberations.
What are the benefits of sound baths? Besides being a very pleasant auditory experience, studies have shown that sound baths soothe the nervous system, improve sleep, support a feeling of rejuvenation, improve mood and well-being, heighten focus and energy, and may help balance and alleviate pain, depression, and anxiety. Physical symptoms such as blood pressure and heart rate also have shown improvement after a sound bath.
What should I bring to the event? You can be seated or reclining during a sound bath, so bring whatever supports/materials (yoga mat, blankets, chair, etc) you feel would create the most comfortable experience. For maximum relaxation and enjoyment, I would suggest a yoga mat, a blanket for support, and a blanket for warmth so that you can completely release into the experience.

Mmm, Mmm, mantra! 7-Day practice
sunday, oct 27th - saturday, nov 2nd, 12 pm CT daily
Mantra & sound-based yoga practices are not only incredibly enjoyable, they are amazingly powerful tools for meditation and self-study. Mantra calms and focuses the mind, decreases stress and anxiety, promotes relaxation in the body, improves mood and emotional well-being, balances and harmonizes energy, fosters greater peace, and, it’s just plain enjoyable!
For this 7-Day Practice, we’ll be learning and practicing the Hare Kṛṣṇa Mahā Mantra. This mantra is a dissolver of negativity and contains within it the energy of divine connection and gentleness.
A 7-Day Practice provides an opportunity to really learn a particular mantra and establish a firm foundation for practice and transformation. In this 7-Day Practice we will begin on Sunday, Oct 27th at 12 pm CT with a 45-minute practice. Monday, Oct 28th - Friday, Nov 1st, we will be practicing from 12 - 12:30 pm CT. On Saturday, Nov 2nd, the last of the 7 days, we will conclude with another 45-minute practice beginning at 12 pm.
What if I can’t attend all 7 live practices? Each class will be recorded and uploaded the same day, so you can easily practice or review.

mercury mantra class
For this Mercury Mantra class, we will begin with a short, easily accessible discussion of Mercury maximum elongation morning star (exact on May 9th) and its symbolic associations and processes. Then, we will transition into an embodied experience of the planet Mercury. This will include grounding, centering, and listening through gently-focused breath work. From the balanced breath, we add soft vocal toning, directed vocal toning & bija mantras. This class will include a brief exploration into an associated mantra - its meaning and some pronunciation cues. After the introduction to the mantra, we will spend time chanting and experiencing the mantra. The class will end with a brief silent meditation to integrate the sonic practice.
This online class offers you the opportunity to connect with others, while singing/experiencing in the privacy of your own home soundscape. Each participant is muted during the class, so that you can feel free to truly sing like no one else is listening.
