A Sound bath uses acoustics to generate a calm, focused state. Sound has proven health benefits such as stress reduction and better sleep.

During a sound bath, participants are guided into a relaxed state typically while lying down, and are ’bathed’ by different sounds promoting deep relaxation.

A professional musician, Samer Ghadry has been leading sound baths and guiding other teachers since 2018. He appears in recorded works such as Alanis Morissette’s The Storm Before The Calm and the award winning film Everything Everywhere All At Once, playing gongs and bowls.

This weekly space is for anyone who wants a little guidance, or simply a little company as they write their loved one’s story to add to our national story map.

The map is a forum where our community can honor loved ones or their own crashes, and show decision makers the true human cost of traffic violence, beyond the numbers and statistics. We hope you will share your story.
