Sound Interwoven

About the workshop

Embark on a transformative journey as Garwyn and Verity return to the Yoga Garden this Spring, blending the soulful resonance of the cello with the ethereal vibrations of Crystal Alchemy singing bowls. In this month of green awakening, they will weave sound with nature’s poetry, receiving the life-giving tonic of wild Nettle tea. The Spirit of Nettle is sharp, vital, cleansing and protective. Valiant and verdant, she is one of the first wild plants to germinate in early Spring. Some say the name 'Nettle' comes from the Anglo-Saxon word Netel, meaning needle—identified by the small sharp prickles that give this green ally her sting. An innate protective mechanism, Nettle's sting teaches us boundaries with an awakening touch to revive, purify and support those who harvest her mindfully. Beyond its physical attributes, Nettle plays a crucial role emotionally, helping us connect with our fire energy, re-sparking vitality and restoring our resilience while clearing the dampness of grief and congestion in the system. Her medicine goes deep into the body, breaking up stagnation while cleansing and purifying the blood. Nutrient-rich, Nettles are fantastic for rebuilding after convalescence, supporting the entire system with rich bioavailable iron and serving as a superb lymphatic tonic! Nettle cuts loose old patterns and re-weaves connections." — Susan Weed After receiving Nettle’s medicine, we will settle in stillness, bathed in Sounds Interwoven. Guided through a shamanic journey, you will be led gently into and out of the sound, and there will be the opportunity to share afterwards, should you wish. Join us on this journey of replenishment, rejuvenation, and wild alchemy!
