RESONANCE is an immersive experience that cultivates presence, being in the moment, listening, being and feeling with real-time awareness.
res·o·nance
/ˈrezənəns/
noun
a reinforcement of sound (as a musical tone) in a vibrating body or system caused by waves from another body vibrating at nearly the same rate
Music makes us feel. Music has the ability to touch, move and inspire us and evoke intense feelings within. Music creates a sense of connection to self and belonging between individuals. We feel this deep in our hearts and our bodies. And with music, we are able to access profoundly complex emotions, create memories and discover new thoughts and ideas. Music is transformational and transcendent. Music helps our healing.
Mindfulness Meditation: a present-moment practice that allows us to meet ourselves exactly as we are— wonderful, beautiful and complex— moment to moment.
