We’re coming together at Grace Cathedral so 1,000 of us can drop into a space of stillness and ease— together.   During the experience, most people lay down, like they are receiving a sonic massage.

It opens up deep meditative states that are usually unreachable without considerable effort.   During the event, participants (mostly laying down) are bathed head to toe in sound— it’s a very hypnotic, ethereal experience.   You will come away with a clear mind, and a deeper appreciation for the wonder of sound. We strongly recommend this event for people who have trouble meditating, or feel like they just “can’t get there.” Give this a try .   Sound Meditation Presents promotes the practice of using sound as a way to affect physical health and conscious awareness.   ______   Ticket pricing   One Soothing Experience (laying down): $45 One Seated Experience— Pews: $22 One Seated Experience— Choir: $18 ** Benefactor Space**— $184   Snagging a benefactor space gets you a soft, cozy set up at the very front row of the Symphony.   Your support helps us spread this healing arts practice and serve our community.   ——— Location:   GRACE CATHEDRAL! 1100 California St, San Francisco, CA 94108   **Our sound bath starts at 8pm, but all guests are asked to arrive between 7 and 7:30pm if possible.
