Sonic Rituals
With Gary Diggins and Charissa Wolfsong
Gary Diggins and Charissa Wolfsong bring an array of contemplative
and contemporary soundscapes to this gathering. This evening of Sonic
Rituals is designed to guide receivers into a liminal or dreamlike state.
Participants stretch out on yoga mats (you can also sit in a chair) while the
Soundwork Practitioners generate therapeutic textures and tones in and
around individuals. Receivers, over a 90-minute cycle, move through
various encounters with their inner world in terms of images, sensations,
memories, and more. The vocal and instrumental creations help cultivate
an overall sense of wellbeing as well as encourage an integration of
energies on multiple levels.
Gary Diggins originated Soundwork as Soulwork and has been in private practice for over 40 years. He is the author of four books and has worked internationally as multi-instrumentalist.
Charissa Wolfsong has been practising Soundwork for several years and has also been studying traditional healing practices with two indigenous elders in Ontario and Nigeria.
