Music in the Moment: A Mystical Sound Journey

A musical journey created in the moment. These journeys are woven together by the magic of our interconnectedness as souls, and the vibrations that the presence of each individual soul gives birth to— including the magical synergy of soul songs intertwining into a story. Intimate soul songs channel forth from individuals, soul groups, and the collective, as well as alchemical sonic vibrations from higher dimensional realms.

Kiara Ra is a vessel in which such vibrations, songs, and healing channels forth. The music is channelled with her voice, classical guitar, crystal singing bowls, shruti box, Indian harp, piano, and various shamanic percussion. She channels forth transmissions of energy that give way to the refinement within one’s consciousness.

Like waterfalls of light, the frequencies of higher dimensional expressions harmoniously flow forth. Within this space, there is room for an expanded interpretation of one’s present state of being and one’s life experiences. The channelled music has much potential to guide us deeper into states of inner peace, balance, clarity, relaxation, energetic harmony, heightened intuition, happiness, surrender, love, and self-love. These transmissions may help to reduce stress and anxiety while promoting clarity, joy, and a sense of lightness. The energy channelled is also intended to help move and release old stuck energy, trauma, and sickness. Releasing and processing such energy will create a more harmonious and healthy self on all levels including our physical, emotional, energetic and mental bodies.

One may leave feeling rejuvenated, connected, focused, and more in alignment with one’s preferred life flow.

Please bring: A yoga mat, water, a blanket, and/or an eye cover

An Interactive Experience of Yoga History & Philosophy

When I took my first yoga teacher training, the lesson on the history of yoga was devastatingly boring. The instructor drew a line on a chalkboard and lectured for more than two hours. I remember thinking if I ever taught this subject, it would be so different! Could yoga history and philosophy actually be fun?! YES! You’ll be moving, meditating, listening to stories, and sharing your thoughts as you explore the many branches of Yoga and its literature dating back to the Pre-Vedic times. Discover the paths that led us to our current yoga experience!
