Outdoor New Moon Planetary Gong Bath

Paying attention to the seasons and cycles of the moon can help bring you closer to being in rhythm with nature and your own inner wisdom. Ruby Koa is thrilled to be partnering with the City Parks and Rec Dept. to have a series of sound healing events in conjunction with the new moons this summer outside at Fairhaven Park. 

Let her Planetary Moon Gong bring you to balance and open you to fresh new intentions. After a short centering, enjoy a 50-minute sound bath with her crystal bowls, gong, chimes, ocean drum, and more. 

This will include crystal singing bowls and then an extended gong segment in which she'll likely play her Zildjian gong which is great for grounding and working on the lower chakras. Then she'll play her Planetary Moon Gong which has an etheric quality to it that will help you relax and let go. Multiple mallets will be used to bring out the full spectrum of beneficial vibrations and frequencies.

The other special thing about an outdoor sound bath is that the random sounds you may hear, from birds singing to people laughing and playing tennis will merge with the sound healing instruments to create an opportunity to release control and surrender to your true nature. Just as a body massage works out tight and knotted muscles, the "sonic massage" of a Gong meditation works out emotional issues that we need to release in order to move forward in life. The listener only has to let go and let the sound of the Gongs do the work. 

No prior experience with yoga, meditation, or sound energy is needed, the movement and sound will simply meet you where you are and take you wherever you need to go.

Cost: $20, registration is handled by the city. Currently this event is capped at 20 participants, but if the weather is looking good a week before the event, at least 10 more spots will be opened up. 

Registration: Click on the link of the event you'd like to register for:  ~ Wed. Sep 13 7:00 - 8:00 PM

(If you have trouble registering online, you can register by phone instead: 360.778.7000)

In case of bad weather: If the weather is too bad to have this event outside, the event will be held in the Fairhaven Park Pavillion. 

What to bring: Even in good weather, you may get cold during an outdoor sound bath, so it's important to dress in layers and bring what you need to be warm and comfortable. A sound bath is usually experienced lying down on your back or a similar comfortable position, though for some, a chair might be more comfortable. You may want to bring a camping chair, cozy padding (yoga/Pilates/camping mat) to lay on, a pillow, blanket &/or sleeping bag, and eye covering. 

Cancellation Policy: Because this event is being hosted by Bellingham Parks and Rec, their policies apply, which usually include pre-registration and no refunds. However, if you can't make it, please contact me and I am happy to give you a credit toward one of my classes or events.
