Timeless Tibetan Singing Bowls. The Crystal Lyre, Crystal Pyramids. The Mighty Thunder Drum. The Ocean Drum. Enormous Tuned Chimes. Rain Sticks. Rattles. Bells. Thunder Tube and more... Enter the portal. Align with the heartbeat of the earth. Travel across the plains, through the forest, over the mountains to the ocean. Dive deep beneath the waves, swim with the whales, listen to their mystical voices. Fly high into the sky and out into the magical universe. Experience the birth of stars, feel the very sounds of creation itself. Tinkling fairy chimes & bells, return you to the centre of your own heart. This is an experience you will not forget and you will wish it never had to end... No amplification. No electronics. Just the pure tones of the amazing instruments. Sound bathing helps to heal your body by reducing stress & anxiety, impacts the human nervous system and decreases blood pressure, helps tune out your thoughts to make beneficial meditation easier, assists connection to inner self to access healing & insight, makes you more relaxed, balanced & focussed.
THUNDER DRUM DREAMING Thunder Drum Dreaming...We gather around the Mighty Thunder Drum on the outside deck and grass. Sit or lie down and give yourself to the earthy, rhythmic beat that echoes the source of our true nature and joins us to the heartbeat of the earth.  Thus, we enter Thunder Drum Dreaming. The drum unites all people as one.  A 30 minute drum journey that features the Thunder Drum. American Indian style hand held Drums. Rattles and  Rainsticks. Harmonic Whirlies. Drum Journeying is believed to assist one to reconnect to one's inner self, enhance our self empowerment and creative expression, enables ability to gain insight to personal issues to access help & personal healing, heighten our sense of life purpose.   *If the weather is bad we will enjoy Thunder Drum Dreaming on the enclosed verandah.
THE PYRAMID ROOM Make sure you arrive with plenty of time to experience the healing energies of our pyramid room, or visit it at the end of the retreat before you head home. Built some years ago now, the pyramid was created to scaled sacred geometric specifications of the Great Pyramid of Egypt. Pyramids have long been known to emit mystical healing & uplifting energies. Sacred Geometry, along with Sacred Sound are the expressions of the creative universe. We have chairs & cushions in there for your comfort. There is even a small crystal singing bowl that may be played gently by our guests. We ask that silence is maintained while in the pyramid out of respect toward those who are meditating & reflecting quietly. "Pyramid Meditation is believed to achieve deeper meditation, improve eyesight & hearing, lower high blood pressure, relieve insomnia, arthritis & headaches, faster healing for sores & broken bones, improves memory & increase confidence levels, increase energy levels, balance hormones, improves concentration & understanding"  You are welcome to try it for yourself.
