This New Moon Gathering is hosted by Boulder's current Artist-in-Residence, Lio Bumbakini and the Eldorado Springs Art Center with the aim of providing guests an experience in healing and relaxation by means of sound bathing - in tandem and recognition of August's New Moon - also known as The Last New Moon of Summer.
The evening will begin with a short meet and greet, with time alotted for guests to situate themselves and groups in the areas around the sculpture garden. Please remember to bring a yoga mat, pillow, eye mask, and light cover for your own comfort.
The treat for the evening will be an hour-long sound bath, or better yet a Vibrational Sound Journey -- a meditative experience during which a group of people lie down and listen to resonant sounds. It often involves singing bowls, which create an echoing sounds. Sound bathing is often revered as a practice with healing properties.
