Winter Evening Sound Bath
Peaceful Vibrations

This special sound bath event at Mills Community House are designed to welcome all. This new moon and winter solstice sound bath will give participants an opportunity to relax and reflect as 2025 comes to a close.

Sliding scale admission: $25-$40

Each session begins with a guided meditation (10-15 minutes) designed to either balance our energy centers and clear out what is not serving us and/or prepare our minds for deep relaxation followed by the soothing sounds of the crystal singing bowls and other instruments. Tune in and drift away...
​
Please bring whatever you need to get comfy (the floor is HARD) such as a mat, blanket(s), pillows or cushions.
