TAMPA

Healing Sounds by the Lake for Earth Day

April 21st, we celebrated Earth Day in our own special way. Our new friend Hannah came to play crystal singing bowls and other healing sounds. As we all got settled on our mats and chairs, a curious alligator watched from the lake. As Hannah started to play her mesmerizing sounds, he was inspired to find his own silence and solitude and gracefully swam away. Everyone experienced a deep inner silence and stillness that healed from within. The vibration that was created permeated the atmosphere to surely have a positive effect on Nature. Even the mosquitos felt a sense of peace and cooperation and didn’t bite a single soul. The meditation ended with dinner and a sense of community with like-minded souls.
