An immersive sound journey through the spheres of Cello, Crystal Alchemy singing bowls, flute and Shamanic drum.

Join Garwyn and Verity for a unique sound journey interweaving Cello with the vibrations of Crystal Alchemy singing bowls. Gathering in the tide of the Solstice, we will integrate sound with the poetry of nature's lessons, harnessing the potency of wild-plant medicine at the peak of Summer.

Our evening will begin with a traditional tea ceremony, receiving the medicine of Mugwort - considered the Mother Herb, she is a powerful ally to doulas and midwives often used in childbirth. Her petiolate, narrow leaves are a deep green yet soft and silvery underneath, evocative of the Moon and her ability to support women's cycles, health and hormones. As the Moon moves tides, Mugwort is linked with the water element increasing blood flow to our abdominal organs, encouraging the ebb and flow of menstruation, digestion and the rise of subconscious emotions. Mugwort's unique bitterness also relaxes the nerves, calms fires of inflammation, moves energy and eases anxiety to bring us into a state of presence and receptivity.

Her botanical name is Artemisia Vulgaris - honouring the Greek Goddess Artemis, the original "wild woman" who cannot be tamed; the goddess of the Moon, huntress and fierce defender of nature! Like her namesake, Mugwort's messages are straight and true, bringing forth buried experiences, patterns and stories we need to see, process and heal. A potent oneirogen, she enhances dreaming, stirring the subconscious to guide you in an elucidating dreamscape - revealing her secrets to those ready to receive them. Greet her without expectation, and allow her to show you the world within yourself.

Once we have received her medicine we will lay and listen, bathed in sounds Interwoven - to find crystalline clarity and insight. We will guide you through a short meditation to lead you in and out of the sound, and there will be the opportunity to share afterwards, should you wish.
