Autumnal Equinox Gong Bath With Gregg Wilkins
Saturday, September 20, 6:00 p.m.
Pre-Registration $20 | $25 Regular Day-Of Ticket Price
As we honor nature’s rhythms, we invite you to bathe in the sound and vibration of the Paiste Earth Gong and other sacred sound instruments in a glorious range of vibrational frequencies. This special event, with SonoAlchemist Gregg Wilkins of SpiritWave Rhythms, will be held on Saturday, September 20, from 6:00 to 7:00 p.m.
You will be immersed in the vibrations and resonance of sound instruments, allowing the sound to “wash” over you. These sessions can have a profound effect on the physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional levels your being and consciousness, as well as facilitating the potential for reaching theta and delta brainwave states from your waking beta state.
During the Gong Bath, you will be able to hear sounds through your ears, as well as sense the sounds through your skin and skeletal system, due to the broad spectrum of frequencies created by these instruments and the resonance created through them. This may even affect your being on a cellular level.
The autumnal equinox—which arrives this year precisely at 12:19 p.m. Mountain Time on Monday, September 22, 2025—is a beautiful reminder of balance in our lives. As day meets night, we are invited to pause, recharge, and appreciate Divine abundance.
An equinox gift for each registered attendee invites you to create space for reflection, embrace the changing seasons, and deepen your connection with our planet Earth.
Preparation:
· Wear comfortable clothing you can relax in.
· Bring a yoga mat, blanket, and bolster pillow for personal comfort.
· Bring water.
