Be Light: Gentle Yoga & Sound Bath

  • Durham Friends Meeting 404 Alexander Avenue Durham, NC, 27705 United States (map)

Ground yourself through Vedic chanting, breathwork, and mindful movement, then settle into a deeply nourishing sound bath.

We will conclude our fall Gentle Yoga & Sound Bath series with Asato Ma, a timeless Vedic chant that invokes the prayer, "Lead us from the unreal to the real, from darkness to light, and from death to immortality." As we enter the darker months of winter, our practice will emphasize cultivating an inner light that is not dependent on external circumstances, carrying that sense of clarity, warmth, and presence into the holiday season and beyond.

We begin with an accessible yoga practice incorporating Vedic chanting, breathwork, mindful movement, and meditation. Rather than encouraging you to "check out," this practice invites you to check in—developing a calm, grounded awareness and a deeper connection to yourself.

From this place of presence, we transition seamlessly into an extended sound bath with you. Using therapeutic-grade CrystalTones® Alchemy singing bowls, gong, chimes, and voice, you create an immersive sound experience designed to calm the nervous system, encourage deep rest, and support the body's natural capacity for healing.

Taking place at the threshold between summer and fall, this workshop offers an opportunity to honor the life-giving forces of nature, express gratitude for the abundance of summer, and create space to enter the fall season with greater clarity, steadiness, and intention.

Please Bring:

  • Yoga Mat

  • Water bottle (water fountains are available)

  • Blankets & Bolsters (Optional)
