Her aim is to provide the opportunity to experience the benfits of mindfulness meditation in a relaxed, non-judgemental and supportive environtments.For two decades she worked within the busy environments of both the care sector as an inspector and the education sector as a lecturer. She was overwhelmed, exhausted and stressed. As well as overthinking, she found herself unable to relax. Having taught psychology in colleges and universities in the Bedfordshire area for over a decade Berni thought she understood the power of the mind pretty well. It wasn't until she actually started practicing meditation and mindfulness on a daily basis that she really began to understand the mind has such a powerful influence on every aspect of your life, health and wellbeing.

It is an ancient practice that harnesses the power of sound vibrations to promote healing and relaxation and can be used to address a specific ailment or issue. It is most commonly used as a form of self care in the form of a sound bath.How does it work?During a sound bath your brain enters the theta brainwave state. Whilst in this state you will remember everything but are deeply relaxed. The facilitator plays a variety of sounds each with a different tone and frequency. These sounds interact with the cells of the body, helping to align (repair) them.Benefits of a sound bath can include:Relaxation of mind and bodyReduces stress and anxietyReduces inflammation in the bodyReduces anger and irritabilityReduces fatiguePain reliefCan lift a depressive stateBoosts creativityInduces a state of inner harmonyImprove memory and sleep qualityCan helps with joint problems, headaches, digestive problems and menstruation issues.What happens during a sound bath?You will be invited to lie down with your eyes closed in a comfortable position, using mats, pillows and blankets. Your facilitator will then guide you through a relaxing body scan meditation. The facilitator then plays a variety of instruments such as drums, rain sticks, Tibetan singing bowls, gongs and chimes. You don’t have to do anything, just lay back, relax and allow your body to take in the sound and let the vibrations do their work.Important InformationWe regret that no latecomers can be admitted.You will need to wear comfortable clothing and bring your own pillows (1 or 2 depending on whether you need extra back support) and blankets.Participants will need to complete a health from prior to taking part for insurance purposes.
