This class will begin with a brief introduction into the Chakra system and meditation. Then I will hit each bowl several times while we chant the corresponding mantra (Lam, Vam, Ram, Yam, Ham, Om, Aum) Each Chakra and each bowl are tuned to a frequency. The Root Chakra bowl has a note of C and both vibrate at similar frequency.
The bowls produce the vibrations outside the body while chanting mantras creates vibrations within the body. Sound Stimulates our nervous system and can help bring us closer to our own awareness/consciousness. At this point, you might be thinking, I don't know about chanting. That seems a little too outside of my comfort zone.
This class is perfect for a first timer because while you are becoming comfortable producing your sound, the sounds of the bowls and your fellow classmates will be there to warm your nerves. The worst that can happen is you feel uncomfortable. That's a pretty good worst! :-)
*If you must eat within two hours or class, eat lightly. Come in comfortable, loose clothing that allows you to sit for most of the class. Benches are available for anyone who needs them.
Class Time: 6:00-7:00 Location: Crescent Collective, Liverpool
