Radiance (光芒) vol.002
sound bath + deep listening

where in your body do you feel joy? where do you keep your rage? where in your body do you feel at home?

Radiance (光芒) is a project i'm developing about home — as a place, and as something you carry in your body when you move. across migration and cultural change, home doesn't disappear. it changes shape. these sessions are its public practice.

for vol.002, we gather two nights before the beaver full moon, under the theme of 𝙘𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙞𝙣𝙜. the beaver full moon is named for the season when beavers seal their lodges for winter. we do the same: let go of what we've been carrying, and ground ourselves in our bodies as home before we hibernate.

we begin with a live sound bath on singing bowls, then sink into deep listening with hiroshi yoshimura's 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥 (1986). eyes covered, lying down, let go and fall into flow.

✧ soft landing — give yourself time to arrive and settle in. once we begin, the room stays quiet. phones off.

✧ bring
+ a yoga mat — rug space on site is limited
+ anything that makes you feel at home: a cushion, a blanket, an eye cover, a water bottle
