We interrupt this week’s scheduled events to remind you that VibeWell HONORS is getting SO close!
When, you ask?! May 11, 2019, of course!
YES, it is almost here. And you need to be there with us.
Here are some of the amazing teachers you will see…
And that’s not all. This festival is for every body, everybody, any body, and anybody who wants to do something really special, interesting, fun, engaging, and community-focused with their Saturday. We are filling the park with vendors, healers, energy workers, creatives, artists, and foodies who are ready and willing to share what they do and what they know with our attendees. Sure, you can spend 7 hours in downward dog BUT you definitely don’t have to. You can do 100 other things that are all “yoga” (because this practice is and always has been MORE THAN ASANA!).
So book it! Get that ticket.
Alright, that was a lot…now onto this week’s events!

Our focus will be Forgiveness. Like a flowering of a tree, there comes a ripening when it’s time to forgive.

Release & Relax with Himalayan Singing Bowl and Gong Sound Healing with Tracy Hart and Kim Giglio
Saturday at Aquarian Yoga Center in Clark

The vibrations of the gong help facilitate release – old thought forms and ways of being can be cleansed out of the energy system. It is a cleansing process for the subconscious mind. During this time Tracy will be playing a Himalayan healing singing bowl on each person’s heart center to enhance the release of unwanted energy and to help manifest positive intentions.
