Community Sound Bath
Peaceful Vibrations Up North


Summer 2025 Sessions
June 11, 7:00pm: Full Moon Sound Bath
June 25, 7:00pm: New Moon Sound Bath
July 27, 10:00am: Relaxing Journey Sound Bath
August 10, 10:00am: Chakra Balancing Sound Bath

What is a sound bath?  A sound bath is a meditative experience where you are "bathed" in sound waves of specific frequencies to promote deep relaxation and restoration.  You will experience the soothing sounds of quartz crystal singing bowls, Tibetan singing bowls, and other instruments as they resonate with your body's energetic centers allowing your own healing powers to activate.  

Space is limited, please plan to RSVP closer to the event date

Sound baths are provided free to the community.  Donations will be accepted and used to support both Mills Community House and Peaceful Vibrations.

Donations help support Mills Community House and Benzie Laughter Club

Laughter yoga involves various movement and breathing exercises to promote intentional laughter.  Breathing exercises are used to connect the diaphragm and prepare the lungs for laughter.  What follows are a series of "laughter exercises" that combine gentle improvisational movements and playful visualization techniques.  Laughter exercises are interspersed with breathing exercises.  

Anyone can participate in laughter yoga.  It helps to have an open mind and sense of curiosity.  No special equipment is needed.
