WHAT IS SOUND MEDITATION?
Sankofa Mind + Body, launched in 2019, is a SOUND MEDITATION AND
YOGA-centric organization based in DETROIT, Michigan. SOUND
MEDITATION IS THE PRACTICE OF DEEPENING MEDITATION WITH THE USE OF
VARIOUS SOUNDS AND MUSIC TO STIMULATE THE MIND AND BODY. Sound has
been used in ancient cultures around the globe for thousands of years
to ease anxiety, stress, depression, and to promote a sense of
well-being. Many cultures, religions, and mystic traditions have
celebrated the power of music to induce trance and meditative states
and expand one’s consciousness.
Sankofa Mind + Body’s approach to sound meditation includes a
variety of tools to create a blissful sonic positive and
self-healing space. A typical session includes using a combination of
crystal and metal singing bowls, percussion instruments,
chimes and more to deepen the meditative sound bath experience.
_Tafari Stevenson-Howard
_Tafari Stevenson-Howard is a Detroit, Michigan-based sound
meditation facilitator who was introduced to the world of sound
healing by indigenous practitioners while visiting the Brazilian
rainforest. It is here that Tafari was ignited with passion through
this ancient healing medium.
Over the years, Tafari practiced various forms of meditation and yoga
practices. When he was introduced to the use of sound vibration as a
vehicle for well-being and balance, Tafari began sharing the practice
of sound meditation with his community as a way to assist people to
become more present and to foster relaxation in the mind and body by
implementing sound centering tools.
