A Sound Healing by Asma is a journey of meditation guiding you into an exploration of your inner world of the subconscious mind, thoughts, with the intention of helping you to find peace in the end. The produced sound vibrates from the ears, cascading, weaving, soothing sound that goes through your senses going deep into your physical, mental, emotional, spiritual level making the body relax and open for healing. This is for anyone that is having difficulty in pain management, lacking good quality sleep, finding it hard to relax, worrying over things, having broken relationships, or suffering in an imbalanced aura, or blocked chakra energy. The sound journey is essential in breaking patterns of unhealthy pain, fears, traumas, blockages, negative relationships between our own selves, and relationships to others. Like sound, the aim is to come out of the session with harmonious thoughts, clarity over things, and establish a starting point to break the unhealthy patterns. Asma Almajed, a sound healing facilitator, emphasizes setting the intention before proceeding with the session. She uses musical instruments, Tibetan bowls, Gongs, percussions, and sounds of nature. She also incorporates other effective healing techniques like theta, hypnotherapy, and Reiki to achieve a higher level of results. Particularly for those with cases who are in need of a deeper concentration.

Sound Healing Meditation with Anuradha
The singing bowls have been used in the Tibetan culture since the 12th century! The Gongs, have been used as a form of sound healing since around 4,000 BC! The sound frequency emitted alters the brain waves to the Theta state, which is a deep meditative state of mind. During these brain frequencies we access our deeper subconscious mind for healing. Our bodies are made up of 70-75% water & our brain up to 80% of water. As sound frequencies travel fastest through water they bring in instantaneous change in the meditators. Enjoy 60 minutes of deep trance, inner quiet and bliss as the waves of sound through a medley of sound healing instruments deepen your experience by immersing you in them. The intense breath work quiets the inner chaos while the hypnotic guided scripts lead you to deep subconscious transformation.
What is a Soundbath?
During a Soundbath, the sound waves stimulate alpha and theta brain wave states. These brain wave states are deeply meditative and peaceful and are highly conducive to healing. These sound waves also slow the heart and respiratory rate, and can have a therapeutic and restorative effect on the mind and body.
What is required for a Soundbath?
Have an open mind, be comfortable, listen
What instruments are used for a Soundbath?
For my Soundbaths I use Himalayan bowls, gongs, crystal singing bowls, tuning forks, planetary tuned trigons and therapeutic percussion.

Here is Bilingual Power Yoga - English/Japanese with Miyuki
Have you ever taken yoga classes in a language that you don’t understand?? Wow!
The first time I took a yoga class in English (yes, my mother tongue is Japanese) was four years ago at Eco.
I couldn’t even understand the words “inhale” or “exhale”, because you rarely hear those specific words in daily life.
It’s ok not understanding what the instructor says. Just look around the class and do what other people do. Then slowly by repeatedly hearing the same words, you will learn new vocabulary with every movement.
In this class, I will give instructions in English first, then repeat the same in Japanese.
And yes, this is Power Yoga which is a bit more challenging than Hatha Yoga, but it will be based on three types of Sun Salutation - the core of physical yoga practice.

You are all welcome and remember, don’t be shy to ask or look around at the class to learn from others. No one is going to judge you and you are not alone. We will all be taking this journey together.
