Nāda; A Day of Sound and Silence

If our last update wasn't exciting enough, we are so pleased to announce our first full day event that brings into being our new year goal to craft "longer sound journeys, partnered in with our Holistic offerings to include guided meditation". We've spent nearly three years exploring how Annabeth's practice of Buddhist chants meets and relates to Nik's experience in classical Hindustani music as a sitar player; now we're really ready to share!

So, we are delighted to offer a whole Saturday of meditation, chanting and music inspired in essence by the ancient principles of Nāda yoga. You are very welcome to come for the morning or afternoon as stand-alone sessions but we'd love for you to join us in a whole spacious day of complete immersion in the sacred dance between sound and silence. 

Here's what you can expect:
​
10:00 - 12:30: Chanting Workshop - Share in a space of meditative awareness before expanding into a sequence of mantras to prepare your body, breath and being for a deeper experience of stillness.

12:30 - 13:30: Lunch

13:30 - 16:00: Sound Journey - A meditative afternoon of sound, woven with sitar, mantras and the invitation to join sections of chanting on the journey.

Each ticket gives you the option to include a homemade, vegan meal from the Earth Heart Kitchen (of course prepared with seasonal produce from the Earth Heart Garden!), or you can choose to bring your own. 

We're offering a wide range of ticket options because we want to meet as many different needs and schedules as possible; but we have to make sure we don't overbook in total, so we've given ourselves quite a mission on organising the tickets! If you'd like to join us but find we're sold out of the ticket option you want, please email us. As long as there are still spaces available, we can probably have a wiggle about and free up the tickets you want! Equally in the interests of inclusion, we've got limited spaces available for anyone who would be financially unable to access our tickets at the full price we're asking. Though we've done our best to make tickets affordable and believe they're really good value, we would genuinely like to hear from anyone who feels moved to come but just can't meet the cost. We understand. We want you to share in this. Let's talk.

It's also such a joy to say that as we come to write this post, less than 24 hours after going live with tickets, we've already filled about a third of our spaces! We're looking forward to continuing that trend and sharing our mutual love of these ancient and profound practices with as many people as possible. Are you free on Saturday the 30th of May? Might you be one of them? We really hope to see you there!ICKET UPDATE! Wow! We've
