As this is an outdoor event, the sounds may differ from those in a studio setting. However, it's this very distinction that lends magic to the experience, immersing yourself in the serene vibrations of ancient healing instruments while tuning into your senses and allowing the noise of the outside world to gently fade away whether you are on a lounge or a float.
