The "Kindergarten Naptime of the Third Kind"



Lately I've been obsessing about something I read listed in Rolling Stone's Hot List. This is an excerpt from the write up:

"He books a 'sound bath' at the Integratron - an acoustically perfect wooden dome in California's Mojave Desert. During an hour session ($55), visitors lie on mats in the center of the room while a sound therapist plays tones on quartz-crystal bowls." 


A description of what exactly a "Sound Bath" is from the Integratron's website:

"The Sound Bath is a 30-minute sonic healing session that you can experience while resting comfortably in the Integratron's highly resonant, multi-wave sound chamber. We play 9 quartz crystal singing bowls live, each one keyed to the energy centers or chakras of the body, where sound is nutrition for the nervous system. Imagine lying on comfy mats in the center of this relaxing and resonant high-energy field, while having your body bathed in exquisite sound for 30 minutes. The results are waves of peace, heightened awareness, and relaxation of the mind and body." 

The more I read about this "Sound Bath", the more I am enticed to go experience it for myself. You can book a private "Sound Bath" or attend a Public one that is only $10. This sounds like a magical experience, but as we know I can't take a "Sound Bath" right now so instead I will have my own lying on a yoga mat in my room listening to "Love Like a Sunset Pt. 1" by Phoenix  and drift off the astral plane...
