Greg Carpenter will be back in the Parish House with his Tibetan Bowls. Many of you experienced his workshop in July and were amazed, relaxed, and realigned. Greg writes on his web site: The Healing Power of Tibetan Bowls... Oncologist Mitchell L. Gaynor in his book “The Healing Power of Sound” writes, “…the singing bowls act as a medium in which our inner chaos and conflict can be reconfigured into harmonious calm centeredness that resonates through every cell of our body and mind. These remarkable vessels, as beautiful to behold as they are to hear, have become an integral and essential part of the sound-based guided imagery and meditation techniques that my patients and I use to resolve negatively charged emotions.” Mark your calendars for July 19 and August 16th from 7-9 PM and join us for this amazing healing experience. A massage for body, mind,& spirit
