SUMMARY:Gong Bath: Between Sound\, Stillness & Consciousness
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a transformative Gong Bath session designed to help you relax\, release\, and reconnect with your inner calm. \nThe session takes place in a candlelit studio\, creating a warm\, inviting space to help you ease into deep relaxation. You’ll spend 45–60 minutes in stillness\, lying down\, fully immersed in the sound and vibrations of a variety of instruments\, including: \n\n2 Gongs (30″ Earth Gong + 36″ Paiste Symphonic Gong)\nHimalayan Singing Bowls\nShamanic Drum\nOcean Drum\nThunder Drum\nChime Bells\n…and many more percussive instruments\, all designed to guide you on a deep inner journey and facilitate experiences of altered states of consciousness (ASC).\n\nWhat to bring: \n\nComfortable\, warm clothing\nYour own yoga mat and blanket (a few mats and blankets are available in the studio if you forget or can’t bring your own\, on a first-come\, first-served basis)\nA pillow\, if desired\, for extra comfort while lying down\n\nSpace etiquette: \n\nThe studio is a non-speaking space. During sign-in\, participants can ask any questions\, which will be answered by a team member. Once inside the studio\, participants are invited to lay down or sit quietly on their mat and enter a personal inner journey — relaxing\, tuning down\, letting the day dissolve\, and beginning the healing process.\nIf anything comes up during the session\, participants may quietly refer to me or let me know\, but please keep your voice low so as not to disturb others.\nPlease turn off your phones before entering to maintain a quiet\, undisturbed environment.\nAllow in any sounds from the surroundings during the Gong Bath. For example\, if a fellow participant snores or makes other sounds\, consider them part of the immersive experience and let them flow with the vibrations of the session.\n\nIncense: Light incense may be used to engage your senses and enhance the experience. If you would prefer not to have incense\, please let me know in advance so accommodations can be made. \nThis session is designed to help you connect deeply with your inner peace\, sense of calm\, and overall wellbeing. Whether you’re new to sound healing or a regular practitioner\, this is a unique opportunity to reset your mind\, body\, and spirit. \nBOOKINGS:  https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/gong-bath-between-sound-stillness-consciousness-tickets-1916108765899?utm-campaign=social&utm-content=attendeeshare&utm-medium=discovery&utm-term=listing&utm-source=cp&aff=ebdsshcopyurl

SUMMARY:Never Tell Me The Odds
DESCRIPTION:Never Tell Me The Odds is set on Christmas Eve in a private London rehab. Three days sober and fraying at the seams\, Maddy is stuck in a place where the lights are fluorescent\, the tree is dull\, and connection is both the threat and the cure. When ghosts from her past come crashing through the walls – the married man she nearly ruined herself for\, the soft-hearted friend she almost loved\, the night she almost stepped into traffic – Maddy is forced to confront the life she was desperate to disappear from. \nIn a room full of strangers\, she must decide whether to keep haunting the living while conversing with the dead\, or to claw her way back to reality. Never Tell Me The Odds is a raw\, sharply funny drama about addiction\, the unbearable weight of being seen\, and the terrifying hope of staying alive long enough for things to get better.

SUMMARY:MTO Zendeh Delan® Presents “The Conference of the Birds”
DESCRIPTION:An Immersive Evening of Sufi Music\, Poetry\, and Sama’ at the Royal College of Music\, London\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOnline Tickets at the Royal College of Music\nhttps://www.rcm.ac.uk/events/chooseseats/?WebInstanceId=conferenceofthebirds \n\n\n\n\nThe Programme\nThrough a captivating fusion of traditional Sufi melodies\, contemporary instrumentation\, and timeless verse\, The Conference of the Birds will bring to life Attar’s story\, the Conference of the Birds. Attar’s work tells the story of the world’s birds who gather in search of their sovereign\, the Simorgh. Their journey unfolds as a metaphor for the human soul’s quest for knowledge\, unity\, and ultimately annihilation in the divine. \nUsing a harmonious presentation of music\, verse\, and celestial motions of Sama’\, MTO Zendeh Delan invites participants to witness this allegory in living form. This will be presented in a new manner that has never been exhibited by the ensemble previously. \n\n\n\n\nAudiences will be immersed in: \n\nMusic: A rich tapestry of Persian compositions woven with Western classical and modern rhythms.\nPoetry: Eloquent recitations of Attar’s timeless allegory\, exploring themes of bewilderment\, truth\, and unity.\nSama’: A deeply moving presentation of the sacred practice\, symbolising spiritual ascent and the soul’s union with the divine.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCultural Resonance and Universal Appeal \nAs with all MTO Zendeh Delan presentations\, this concert transcends language and culture. The ensemble’s artistry connects directly with the heart\, evoking a sense of spiritual connection and leaving a lasting impression on the audience. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Ensemble \nMTO Zendeh Delan\, meaning “awakened hearts\,” is the music and Sama’ ensemble of the students of MTO Shahmaghsoudi\, School of Islamic Sufism®. Since their debut at Sadler’s Wells Theatre in 2014\, the ensemble has presented internationally in prestigious venues across Europe\, North America\, and Asia seamlessly blending Sufi traditions with contemporary artistic expression. The group also participates in artistic\, cultural\, and interfaith events. MTO Zendeh Delas also shares their creativity at charity events in order to give back to the community. Each presentation reflects the essence of Sufism: the remembrance of the divine through love\, poetry\, and music.
