Sound healing calms the nervous system and reduces stress and anxiety levels. When combined with yoga, it promotes deep relaxation, making for a wonderful combination. In the midst of a stressful daily routine, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and lose sight of the bigger picture. Do you ever feel this way? Perhaps it's time to take a break and ground yourself. This yoga session can help you find peace and reconnect with yourself. We invite you to take this opportunity to experience this unique combination for yourself.

What can I expect in the Gentle Flow and Sound Healing class?
This class combines a gentle yoga practice with a deep relaxation in Savasana. The yoga session itself is guided at a slow pace, making it suitable for both beginners and advanced practitioners. Cathy incorporates elements of meditation and sound healing into the practice. During the extended final relaxation, she accompanies you with various instruments like Indian singing bowls or a Nova drum. The sound waves travel through your body, gently softening your muscles and creating a sense of deep calm.
What actually happens in Sound Healing?
Sound therapy is already a common term in yoga and meditation practice. Interestingly though, this type of therapy is becoming more and more popular in modern psychotherapy and even in intensive care units of large clinics.
You've probably already experienced for yourself that music can have an influence on our state of mind. Certain songs make you dance up and down the kitchen, swinging wooden spoons, while others move you to tears. In sound therapy, it's not just the acoustically perceptible sounds that move us, but also the vibrations and oscillations that spread through our body.
The whole thing can be explained as not just being hocus-pocus in this way; the human body consists of up to 75 percent water. It's also no secret that water conducts vibrations and oscillations particularly well. The vibrations hitting our body activate the water inside and stimulate the brain region in particular. Above all, relaxing alpha, delta, and theta waves are generated by the sounds of the instruments. It's exactly these waves, which can be measured in people who are in an intensive and deep meditation. In Sound Healing, the body and mind are allowed to rest and there is room for healing.
