Nurture the Self: Planetary Gong Journey

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 23
Nurture the Self
One day only at Nurture (2949 Federal Blvd, Denver, CO)
10:30 AM - 12:00 PM

Valerie and Brian Weyrich return to Nurture for a special gathering of sound, movement, and stillness — a space for you to unwind, go inward, and reconnect.

We’ll begin with gentle yoga asana accompanied by a live DJ set, easing you into the body and softening the mind. Guided pranayama will help center and align before resting into deep restorative relaxation with the sounds of six planetary gongs and singing bowls.

Let the waves of sound carry you into deep relaxation — releasing what no longer serves while cultivating space for what will nurture you in the season ahead.

We’ll close the gathering with tea and community connection to ground the experience and return.

THE GONGS

18" Thai Sun Gong: offers deep meditative tones. Supports meditation and focus for the mind.

24" Moon Gong: governs lunar energies, emotions, home, mother, and nurturing practices. Supports healing emotions and the divine feminine.

26" Earth Gong: Charismatic and full in sound Earth Gong evokes the feeling and energy of the earth herself, grounding yet watery and expansive.

28" Symphonic Gong: offers meditative, beautiful harmonics that expand over a deep fundamental tone. Supports healing within a safe space.

32" Mercury Gong: governs communication, messages, and supports the messenger. Offers space for deep levels of communication and self-actualization.

36" Sun Gong: enhances awareness of the Self, which purifies the personal will and inspires healing.
