January Shelby Bottoms Sound Bath - Earth Tones Elemental Ensemble

Join us for Earth Tones, a heart-opening sound healing concert featuring four extraordinary sound healers coming together to weave a living tapestry of elemental sound. This immersive experience draws from the natural world — the grounding resonance of a wooden upright bass, the breath of wooden flutes, the crystalline purity of singing bowls, and the shimmering tones of metal hand pans.
As these Earth-inspired instruments blend in harmony, you’ll be guided into a meditative soundscape designed to open your heart, raise your vibration, and reconnect you with the rhythms of nature.Come as you are — bring a mat or cushion, settle into stillness, and let the sounds wash through you in this sacred afternoon of renewal and resonance.Allow the Earth to sing through you.
This event is part sound bath, part concert. You are invited to sit up, dance, lie on a yoga mat, or alternate between whatever feels comfortable.

Accessibility Notice: The Nature Center is Wheelchair Accessible. We currently offer the option to sit in chairs or lie on floor mats. We hope to introduce more accessible options like zero-gravity chairs in the future.
Train Sounds & Noise: We’ve found that the occasional train and natural sounds from the surroundings add to the unique experience. The open windows also invite in the sounds of children playing, conversations, and birds singing.
