Uplifting Ancient Sounds & Rhythms for Living Peace

Discover simple and effective tools you can use to live in peace every day of your life. Working with the five elements of Voices of Eden music, together we will create a transformative environment that will grow and expand around you from this evening forward.

In this experiential workshop, we will balance polarities in the body, mind, and spirit and cultivate stillness through learning:

• A mystical Hebrew vocal meditation that connects us to our roots
• Natural rhythms from the ancients using the body as an instrument
• Effortless and authentic expression of our natural voices
• Healing chants, medically proven to induce relaxation and focus, that connect us to our Source
• How to hear and express our own authentic voices while hearing and connecting to others

This is an opportunity for us to slow down, and cultivate peacefulness and inner calm?celebrating our vulnerability and common humanness.

All religious and spiritual traditions are fundamental roads designed to lead us to reclaim our connection with Spirit, Silent Knowledge, and Source of All. This is the essence of each one of us. What would it be like if everyone listened to and expressed our authentic voices and, together, these unique voices could be heard as one harmonious voice? This is the essence of the Voices of Eden experiment. It is the truth by which Eliana lives and sings. It is with simple humility that she invites you to join her in a sincere exploration of love, which promises to transform those who agree to honestly share in harmony.

Uplifting Ancient Sounds & Rhythms for Living Peace is an experiential workshop that allows us to tap into the quiet stillness where we can find answers to all our questions. No previous experience necessary. Just bring your wonderful Self. Appropriate for all ages

Rhythms of the Natural Voice Workshop

During the workshop participants will learn:

• The healing power of voice and natural rhythm using our body as an instrument such was used in ancient biblical times.
• The eastern approach to music as a natural relaxant. Simple chants and movements will be taught to connect us with our inner core.
• The universal note of D flat/C sharp. Until 1930, all instruments in the East were tuned to this note. This is still the case in India. We will learn a cosmic melody that resonates with all seven main energy centers (chakras).
• The number 7 and it's mystical and natural power. Seven is a combination of even and odd numbers and has a balancing affect on our body. We will learn a healing chant in the rhythm of seven based upon the ancient female traditions of the Mediterranean. Participants are welcome to bring frame drums for this portion of the workshop.
• The spiritual roots and power of the Hebrew language and it's use in everyday life.
• A mystic Hebrew meditation based upon the kabbalistic wisdom of sound healing that balances our seven main energy centers and leaves us feeling relaxed and connected with our inner core.

People of all levels and background are welcome!
