The Alchemy of Breath & Sound 

An Inner Calm Experience

Release stress, quiet the mind, and restore your energy through breath, vocal toning, and harmonic sound.

Step away from the noise of the world and enter a sacred space of deep restoration, resonance, and inner stillness.

The Alchemy of Breath & Sound is a transformative 4-hour workshop guided by two experienced practitioners combining the ancient healing arts of sound, vibration, Qigong, and conscious breathing to calm the nervous system, quiet the mind, and awaken the spirit.

Experience the ethereal healing sounds of the Armonica with practitioner Chiho Kagawa, whose intuitive sound journey blends harmonic frequencies, vocal toning, and light language into a deeply meditative and heart-opening experience. The celestial tones of the Armonica have long been associated with emotional release, energetic balance, and profound relaxation.

Alongside this sonic immersion, Craig Harmer shares the ancient art of pranayama breathing techniques — affectionately called “Bananas” — simple yet powerful practices designed to calm the chatter of the “Monkey Mind,” reduce stress, and bring clarity, presence, and inner peace.

Throughout the Workshop, You Will Experience:

• Ancient pranayama breathing techniques to calm the mind and regulate the nervous system
• Guided sound healing with the rare Armonica crystal instrument
• Vocal toning and Sound Qigong practices
• Breath and vibration techniques to support emotional balance and energetic flow
• Deep relaxation, meditation, and inner stillness

About Pranayama:

Pranayama is an ancient yogic breathing practice developed thousands of years ago to consciously regulate the breath, calm the mind, and awaken the body’s natural life-force energy, known as prana. Through rhythmic breathing patterns, these sacred techniques are traditionally used to reduce stress, increase vitality, balance emotions, and deepen spiritual awareness.

About the Armonica:

The Armonica is a rare crystal instrument developed in the 18th century by Benjamin Franklin and later embraced throughout Europe. Both Mozart and Beethoven composed music for it. Historically associated with Dr. Franz Mesmer, the Armonica is renowned for its rich harmonics, believed to support deep relaxation, meditation, emotional release, and energetic balance.

Sound Qigong:

In ancient Chinese traditions, the voice was used as a powerful healing tool to harmonise the body, breath, and consciousness. Sound Qigong combines breath with sacred tones linked to different organs of the body to support emotional well-being and energetic balance.

During this workshop, guests will experience these ancient vibrational practices through guided vocal toning and resonance.

This Experience Is Ideal For Anyone Seeking:

• Relief from stress, anxiety, or overwhelm
• Emotional balance and nervous system support
• Spiritual connection and self-discovery
• Deep relaxation and inner calm
• A restorative reset for mind, body, and soul

Allow the sacred union of breath and sound to guide you into a space where healing, stillness, and transformation naturally unfold.

Breathe deeply. Listen inwardly. Return to yourself.
