Sound Bath
Hosted by HCDVCC (Harris County Domestic Violence Coordinating Council), this calming meditative experience is free for attendees.
A sound bath is a meditative experience where those in attendance are “bathed” in sound waves. These waves are produced by various sources, including healing instruments such as gongs, singing bowls, percussion, chimes, rattles, tuning forks, and even the human voice itself. The intention is to change and help balance the energy of the participants.
