Free Sound Bath at the Library

Step into a different kind of storytime, one designed for rest, reflection, and renewal. In this special class at the library, you’ll be guided through a bookish-themed sound bath that invites you to step out of the rush of daily life and into a gentler rhythm. Each session weaves together a literary theme with gentle breathwork, restorative movement, and the soothing sounds of crystal singing bowls, chimes, and grounding tones.

Just as a story invites you to imagine new worlds, this sound bath offers space to pause, listen, and reconnect with yourself and the stillness within.

Each session includes:

• A unique story-inspired meditation and theme
• Restorative yoga and/or breathwork
• An immersive sound bath experience using crystal singing bowls
  

What to Bring:
Please bring a yoga mat and anything else you need to be comfortable, such as a blanket, pillow, and eye mask. You may also wish to bring a journal to jot down any reflections.
