Hello! Welcome to Respite Sound Bath
RESPITE SOUND BATH IS ON HOLD FOR A WHILE - PLANNING TO RESUME IN 2025 - DATES AND LOCATION COMING SOON
Life has a way of getting my attention and also resetting itself. I have experienced this several times in my life, as we all have. Yes.
My recent reset has proven to (and will continue to) have profound and lasting change in me and how I move through the world. I am now cancer free thanks to my oncologist, surgeon and radiologist - my “Dream Team”. I was diagnosed with breast cancer (R side) on July 15, 2024 - two days before my 60th birthday. I had surgery on August 6th. My surgeon who I call my Angel of Life, successfully removed all the cancer cells from my body. No chemotherapy needed. One month of radiation, which I called Radiation Meditation. This was every day (Monday thru Friday) began Monday September 9th and ended Friday October 4th. I am very grateful for the opportunity to continue to live this life to the best of my ability.
The above sounds very matter of fact. Maybe because it is! I just documented the timeline. But this I know, our human experience is so much more than a timeline. I am looking forward to playing again and experiencing all of your beauty and presence that you bring with you.
I look forward to seeing you again, meeting you, sharing with you, and playing the crystal bowls for you!! Peace, Vicky
A little history: I first discovered crystal bowls in 2016, and immediately fell in love. I loved their sound and the way they made me feel-complete relaxation and peace. That’s when I started purchasing bowls. My curiosity grew and I continued to buy more and more bowls. I played for friends whenever I could. I first played for the public in May 2021, thanks to my dear friend Corie who offered me the opportunity to play an outdoor Full Moon Yoga event at Mission Bay’s Crown Point Park in San Diego. It was incredible! I knew I had to keep moving forward and share the sound bath experience with everyone I could. I completed a training/certification course and practiced every day.
From December 2021 to June 2022 I played a weekly sound bath called Sound Bath Saturday.
During June & July, and once in October 2024 I played at Jai Aikido dojo before my cancer diagnosis.
I’ve played private sound baths for small groups, and for large groups at conventions.
Respite Sound Bath is an invitation to come together as a community. To be in a space that welcomes you to come home to your heart where joy lives. Please join me to experience relaxing bliss from the crystal bowls’ vibrational sounds with Reiki. Everyone is welcome.
The crystal bowls' vibrational sounds move you into the Theta brain wave state 4 – 7 Hz just above the Delta state of sleep. Theta is relaxation, a dream-like state, and you may even drift in and out of sleep. Heavy breathing and snoring are music to my ears. Theta is the brain wave state of deep meditation that allows you to be more receptive to physical and emotional healing, enabling you to experience peace, love, joy, and an overall feeling of ease and comfort. This allows your body to create a more coherent frequency between your heart and brain. Simply put, a crystal bowl sound bath allows your body and mind to rest and repair. This is why I chose the name Respite Sound Bath. Respite: a delay or cessation for a time, especially of anything distressing or trying; an interval of relief.
Reiki is the Japanese word for universal life force energy. It is the life force energy that runs through all of us and all of nature. This energy is always with you, providing you with vitality. It is always supporting you in feeling safe and protected. Reiki is love.
***You are home - You are safe - You matter - Be Still & Rest in the magic of love
