Resolve to Relax in 2025: Sound Bowl Meditation at the Ocean County Library Waretown Branch

WARETOWN – When you enter the new year, will the stresses of 2024 follow you? Support your well-being with Sound Bowl Meditation at the Ocean County Library Waretown Branch, 7 PM Monday, December 30.

Certified yoga instructor Belle Burns will share an hour of deep relaxation, using seven crystal bowls to raise sounds that align with the chakras, seven energy centers that govern the connections between mind and body.

Proponents of sound bowl therapy cite its value in reducing stress, anxiety, fatigue and depression, promote relaxation and improve one’s state of mind.

A 200-hour yoga instructor affiliated with Pink Moon Yoga & Wellness in Toms River and Brielle and This Is Yoga NJ in Seaside Park, Belle is known for incorporating yoga history and philosophy and her deep study of metaphysics into a broad range of workshops.
