• On Thursday, Lavendera Massage Center offers a free workshop at 7 – here’s the scoop:

The Healing Power of Your Voice

Everything in the universe is in a state of vibration, including our bodies, organs, bones, and tissues. When something is vibrating out of harmony, it’s possible to bring it into balance with sound.

Using techniques based on the work of Jonathan Goldman, River Ashley will lead a series of harmonizing and breathing exercises that will help you find your voice and restore inner balance. Come and experience for yourself what the healing power of sound can do.

“We are not held back by the love we didn’t receive in the past, but by the love we’re not extending in the present.”
