“True meditation is about being fully present with everything that is including discomfort and challenges. It is not an escape from life.” – Craig Hamilton

overview

Each month, we gather in community to pause, to soften, to remember who we are beneath the noise.
Because rest is not indulgence.
Rest is clarity.
Rest is how we return to the truth that is already here.
We begin with a welcome and intention circle, a moment to be witnessed, to name what matters, and to co-create the field together.
Then we journey into Yoga Nidra with live sound of 4 crystal singing bowls, Native American flutes, chimes, ocean drum, and a monochord, guiding the body into deep restoration and opening the heart to subtle knowing. This is conscious rest, a portal back to presence.
We close by gently returning and sharing reflections, honoring the insight that arises when we rest together.
Healing, a state of returning to more harmony, becomes more powerful in community, because coherence amplifies when we attune as a group.
All levels welcome. Come as you are, and a willingness to receive. Mats, blankets, bolsters, and eye masks are provided.

Yoga Nidra is a meditative practice that creates space for your mind, body and soul to tap into a deep state of conscious relaxation and rejuvenation. It helps you release tension physically, mentally and emotionally, tapping into the inner bliss of one’s true self.

Combined with a live sound bath, the practice goes beyond quieting the mind. We will create a sacred space to facilitate deep healing. When played with intention and technique, a sound bath takes you on an active meditation into the calmest waters of your mind.

Julius’ natural curiosity in science and technology led to spirituality and a deeper connection to the universe. He believes that science is the modern language of the mystics, which we can use to lead happier and healthier lives. Sound as an energy modality brought him to a myriad of spiritual practices, like yoga, Reiki, sound healing, and breathwork, that helped align his mind, body, and spirit. With a loving intention and deep gratitude, Julius creates meditative experiences to empower others on their spiritual journey.
