'Holding Hearts' is a workshop based on Body-Mind Centring® Principals; to build a deeper embodied connection with the wonderful organ of the heart.
In this workshop we use touch, voice and movement to direct breath and awareness to our hearts; We will explore the rhythm of our hearts and the tenderness of heart tissues; we will also bring awareness to the support and connection that the great vessels stemming from the heart provide to our whole body.
This workshop provides a moment to rest, to soften and to move in a way that nurtures your spirit.

JOIN HARUKA SASAKI
Sound Healing & Aromatherapy
28 DECEMBER 2024 | 4-6PM
Join Haruka to creat your own signature aroma bottle, then charge it and yourself with the healing vibrations of Tibetan singing bowls!
A transformative and creative experience that gives you the chance to close 2024 with gratitude and set a meaningful intention for 2025. This special workshop blends the meditative craft of aroma bottle making with the profound relaxation of Tibetan bowl sound healing, creating the perfect space for reflection and renewal.
We begin the workshop with a moment of inspiration by drawing a card, setting the tone for your personalised aroma bottle. You'll then explore the rich meanings of gemstones and the benefits of essential oils, guided by a detailed handout to spark your creativity. With endless combinations to choose from, you'll craft an aroma bottle that uniquely aligns with your intentions for the year ahead.
As we transition into the Tibetan bowl sound healing session, your custom aroma bottles will be placed near the bowls for energetic purification. The soothing vibrations of the Tibetan bowls will guide you into a deep state of relaxation, offering 45 minutes of tranquility and connection as you reflect on the past year and set your sights on the future. This workshop is a beautiful opportunity to honour the lessons of 2024, release what no longer serves you, and step into 2025 feeling grounded and inspired.
Haruka Sasaki
Haruka Sasaki is Japanese and particularly drawn toward oriental methods of healing.
The sound of Tibetan singing bowls has helped me a lot to deepen my meditation and spiritual practice as well as deep relaxation. I would love you to come along and be bathed in this powerful frequency of singing bowls.
