As summers months getting closer, an opportunity to celebrate artistic expression in community in a warm welcoming setting, nurturing inner peace and harmony, through a balance of chanting, mantras, harmonic fun songs & vocal exploration.
Please bring your own song to share
There is a suggested contribution of £10-15 to go toward reciprocity for the space, preparation time & some food to share
(Please do not let this be a barrier for you to come!)
When we gather to sing/chant together, we give a rest to our minds (MANTRA literally means “freeing the mind”) enabling our body essence to relax, de-stress, recharge and feel part of a deeper peaceful resonance with ourselves and with others. After some warm-ups we will be sharing harmonic songs & mantra for healing as well as simple 2 or 3 parts harmony songs from a variety of traditions. (As well as some of my own new exciting polyphonic creations!)
No previous singing experience required, just a desire and willingness to explore your voice, body and mind, by opening and experiencing an hearth-filled intentional space
