Sound Infused Crystal Bracelet Making Workshop
Join us for a beautiful and intentional Workshop, where creativity, mindfulness, and sacred energy weave together in a supportive, high vibration space.
We will begin with an opening circle, grounding our energy and setting clear intentions through a guided meditation. From there, you will weave your intentions into form as you create your own crystal bracelet - infused with your personal goals, desires, and affirmations. These bracelets are more than jewelry; they are energetic anchors and daily reminders of the work you’ve done.
Finally, we’ll journey into a deeply restorative sound therapy, allowing the frequencies to anchor and seal our intentions into the body.
What to bring:
Yoga mat, meditation cushion or blanket
Eye pillow
Water
