SACRED SOUND IMMERSION
with Timothy Glen and Amar Atma Kaur
Sunday, November 18, 3:00 to 4:30 pm
Cost: $25 at the door
A Portion of the Proceeds will be donated to AWAKEN INC.
The Ancients of many traditions have taught us that through the sound current we are able to uplift our personal vibration and in doing so, attract people and circumstances that resonate with a higher vibratory energetic field.
Tim Glenn and Amar Atma Kaur will guide you into a transcendent experience in which you will bypass your thoughts and move directly into your heart center.
Bring a blanket and cushion, a water bottle and anything you might need to relax deeply into the healing sounds of crystal bowls, planetary gong and celestial voices.

Svaroopa yoga is based on a different paradigm from most yoga styles. These poses scientifically release tension in the deepest layers of your body, your spinal muscles, to decompress your vertebrae and discs while making space for your internal organs. This practice is the perfect way to de-stress and decompress after your Thanksgiving holiday weekend.
