SUMMARY:Sound Bath Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Join us each month as we connect with community partners for interactive workshops that promote positive brain health\, meaningful connections\, and well-being. \nSound bath meditations are a sacred and intentional journey—an ancient practice where sound\, frequency\, and vibration invite deep nourishment and inner alignment in. \nDuring this session\, Melaina intuitively leads you through a meditative experience rooted in breath and presence. With calm awareness\, she invites you to soften\, release the weight of the day\, and attune to the quiet wisdom of the subtle body. As layers of sound flow through\, energy begins to move—gently dissolving tension\, unlocking the subconscious\, and clearing outdated thought patterns. Together\, we enter a shared field of stillness and ease\, where harmony arises—not as something sought\, but as something remembered. \nRegister by calling our office at 905-687-3914 or visit us online at http://www.alzheimerniagara.ca/caregiverwellness
