Soothe Sound Bath: an earth day celebration

April 18, 2026 | 6:00 - 7:30 PM

@ NANDI YOGA, SAN MATEO, CA

In honor of Earth Day, ground yourself with Nandi yoga teacher, Reiki Master, classically trained musician, and sound bath facilitator, Alyssa Lauren Stone.

The Earth doesn't rush. It doesn't grind. It restores.

On Earth Day, we return to that rhythm. Through cacao, Restorative Yoga, and a full sound bath experience, we quiet the noise our nervous system has been carrying.

We begin with a cacao ceremony. Raw ceremonial cacao is a heart-opening plant medicine (non-psychedelic) used for centuries in Mesoamerican ritual. Rich in magnesium, theobromine, and anandamide... the brain's bliss molecule... cacao gently elevates mood, sharpens focus, and opens the body to deeper states of awareness. No crash. No jolt. Just clarity.

From there, we move into Restorative Yoga, a practice backed by research and insights that show it can activate the parasympathetic nervous system, lower cortisol, and release tension held in the connective tissue. Supported entirely by props, each pose asks only one thing of you: let go.

Then the sound begins.

A gong. Himalayan singing bowls. Frame drums. A harmonium. Chimes. Each instrument produces vibrations that travel through the body at a cellular level, recalibrating brainwave states, reducing anxiety, and stimulating the vagus nerve.

Wear cozy layers and come with an open heart! Spaces are limited to preserve the intimacy of the experience, we encourage early registration.

The cost is $55. 

full moon Sound Bath with Restorative Yoga & Reiki Healing

May 2nd 2026 | 6:00 - 7:30 PM

@ YOGA FLOW SF (OCEAN), SAN FRANCISCO, CA

Join us for an evening of spiritual healing utilizing three powerful modalities: Reiki (floating hand positions over the body), Restorative Yoga, and Sound Healing by classically trained musician, yoga teacher, and Reiki Master, Alyssa Lauren Stone.

The Full Moon shines in peak illumination, symbolizing clarity and completion of a cycle. Energy may intensify, emotions amplified, and a window of opportunity widens to manifest our deepest desires. Together, we will harness these cosmic energies using these powerful healing modalities:

  • Sound Healing

  • Reiki

  • Restorative Yoga

to rebalance our chakras and clear our auras.

Join Yoga Flow SF resident teacher, Alyssa Lauren Stone, as she guides you on a sound-healing journey from the Himalayas to the outer cosmos, using Tibetan and crystal singing bowls, frame drums, gongs, and a wide range of percussion instruments.

Participants will also receive Reiki, a hands-on healing method originating from Japan over 100 years ago. Alyssa will be joined by Ann Massie, a certified Usui Reiki Master, for the Reiki portion.

Together, they'll create a deeply immersive journey into rest, resonance, and renewal.

All are invited to gather in community over complimentary De Soi mocktails after the event ends at 7:30 pm.

*Please bring a yoga mat, eye cover, and wear socks if possible. Optional: bring yoga props if you prefer to use your own blankets, bolster, blocks, or strap.

Investment: $60
