Yoga inspires her to live each moment more mindfully. She completed her 200 training in the teachings of Beth Spindler, a Himalayan Institute resident and yoga author at The Yoga Institute. In her classes, she loves to combine creative sequencing, a spirit of playfulness, and a dose of inspiration to help students deepen their practice. She seeks to help others thrive in life by nurturing body, mind, and soul with yoga, and her hope is that her students step off the mat feeling refreshed, nourished, and balanced.

FULL MOON SOUND BATH
with Shanti Sound Healing
Friday, March 6th
7:00 – 8:00pm
$30 (pre-registration guarantees your spot)
at the Maui Yoga Shala – 381 Baldwin Ave, Paia
Together as Shanti Sound Healing, Christina and Paul create magical journeys through meditation and vibrational sound. You will be enveloped in a divinely inspired chorus of healing vibrational sound… Tibetan singing bowls, created by Nepalese artisans and infused with blessings by Himalayan Monks will sweep you away on a transcendent sound journey. Crystal quartz singing bowls, tuned to the vibration of the universe will also be used in addition to various chimes, crystal quartz pyramid, and water gong that will take your meditation as deep as the sea.
Each instrument played is immersed with loving intention to gently transition participants from his or her normal waking state to a highly relaxed state of consciousness. In this relaxed state, a person’s own innate healing abilities are able to work more effectively to bring them back into optimal vibrational alignment that enhances overall health and well-being.
During a Sound Bath, participants dress comfortably and lie on a yoga mat with the optional use of pillows/bolsters. A harmonious sleep-like state is reached while lying comfortably on your back in Savasana (corpse pose). It includes a guided chakra meditation, aromatherapy and individual attention by Christina during this beautiful immersion of healing sound.
