SEASONAL SOUND CEREMONY: SUMMER SOLSTICE

"If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration." - Nikola Tesla

~~~

Welcoming you to a brand new sound immersion in Woodstock, Oxfordshire to honour the passing of the seasons in the great wheel of the year - held by local musician and holistic sound artist Molly Chinner.

Sound bathing is a beautiful resting practice, designed to soothe you in mind, body and spirit. 

It doesn't involve water, but you will be 'bathed' in a cocoon of pure and healing vibrations, guiding you to reach a greater sense of harmony. Sound healing can help to 'retune' any dissonance in the body to a set of more helpful, harmonic resonances supporting overall health and wellness. Sound healing can be helpful for relieving symptoms of many common ailments, mental health disorders and conditions - a sonic tonic of respite from our fast-paced world.

In this moment we gather in the Woodstock community centre to acknowledge this important moment in the seasonal shift - where the light has peaked and the summer solstice has arrived. The Summer Solstice is the longest day of the year. A time where the light is at it’s peak and the Earth is abundant with gifts. The solstice is a moment of pure joy and bliss - magnifying our creative forces to reflect the blossoming world. 

You will be greeted with a steaming cup of seasonal, herbal tea and a warm, friendly community. You will be able to choose an intention card from the deck if you wish before being guided to settle down into rest. We'll open with some gentle mindfulness meditation and relaxation accompanied by seasonal musings. You'll then drift into a cosmic state of rest accompanied by the angelic chimes of crystal singing bowls and Molly's voice. 

Molly's signature sound sessions are created using a combination of pure, crystaline tones, ambient drones, Celtic and English folk songs, drums, sacred Mantra, ethereal vocals and  to create a blissful sound cocoon for you to be held by. Her intention is to hold a space for you to receive what you need in any given moment, crafting a little pocket of rest for you to reflect on the turning, seasonal wheel.

At the end you'll be gently reawakened by the sound of chimes and Molly's voice. Leaving with a refreshed sense of energy and creativity.
