Purrfect Resonance: A Sound Bath with Cats

Friday nights, Jan. 6-Feb. 28

Step into the soothing world of Purrfect Resonance, a sound bath that harmonizes calming soundscapes with the gentle presence of cats. This session offers a sanctuary for rest and renewal, blending meditative tones with feline companionship to create a deeply soothing experience.

The sound bath incorporates a range of instruments to create a rich and immersive soundscape. You’ll hear the resonant vibrations of gongs, crystal bowls, and chimes, complemented by the grounding tones of a monochord, an ocean drum, and a frame drum. Gentle accents from a rain stick, a kalimba, and a sansula add texture, while the unique melodies of a singing saw and cello provide depth and a touch of the unexpected. Together, these sounds are designed to release tension, balance the nervous system, and guide you into a state of deep relaxation.

Throughout the session, friendly cats wander the space, their quiet presence fostering a sense of warmth and connection. Whether they curl up nearby, explore softly, or simply share their peaceful energy, the cats bring an added layer of comfort to the experience.

What's this class like?

This form of breathwork utilizes a breath that drops you into a deep but activated trance state quickly for optimal journeying conditions. The practice is accompanied by live instrumentation with sound healing instruments, provided by Dr. Aria Thomé – this can include drums, gongs, tibetan bowls, rain sticks, rattles, and other percussive instruments. The breath is fast-paced and there is a guided tempo.

What should I bring?

Although no special preparation is required, if you would like to honor the occasion, you might design a ceremony the night before that includes journaling, meditation, intention setting, affirmations, singing and/or dancing. At the beginning of every session I ask participants what they want to focus on during their journey. Your ceremony will ideally help you clarify your desires and focus your intentions. 

Is this space accessible?

Bring a yoga mat, a blanket (if you want one) and a water bottle. Breathwork can make you thirsty! Other items you might want include a journal and pen, drawing materials, favorite crystals, chapstick, and a stuffed animal or other comfort item. You can use a pillow or not, depending on what you find comfortable. If you have a bad back, consider bringing a yoga bolster to place under your knees (it takes the pressure off your lower back) or two mini yoga bolsters to tuck under your derriere (it works even better!) Wear comfortable clothing and consider dressing in layers – body temperate can fluctuate wildly during breathwork, and you may get very hot or very cold during your session.
