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.
The Braham Event Center is a beautiful, expansive space with natural lighting located at 655 8th St SW, Braham, MN 55006. The Sunday Sound Bath will begin at 7 pm. Please come between 6:45 - 7 pm so that you have time to find your space and get settled in. The next Sound Bath in 2024 is scheduled for December 11th.

navgraha mantra workshop
saturday, february 1st 10 am CT
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 2-hour workshop, we’ll be learning and practicing a Navgraha Mantra (Planetary Mantra for All Nine Planets). Practicing this mantra attunes one to the energies of the 9 planets (Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, and the North/South Nodes. We are not only practicing the mantra in class, but also teaching the meaning and the pronunciation of the Sanskrit mantra. At the end of this 2-hour workhop, you will have a greater understanding and a personal connection to the inner sounds and resonances of yourself and the planets.
What is included in this 2-hour workshop? You will receive handouts and a recording of the workshop. The recording of the workshop will be available via dropbox for 2 weeks after the conclusion of the class.

For this Goddess Mantra Class, we will be practicing the Auṁ Duṁ Durgāyai Namaḥ mantra.
We will begin the class with a brief introduction to the energy of Durgā. Ma Durgā ia the fiercely protective Universal mother energy. The practice will begin with some centering, and listening-in through gently-focused breath work. From the balanced breath, we add soft vocal warm-ups and nāda yoga. We will spend a little time learning the melody and pronunciation of the mantra. Then, 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.
