Breathing into Sound

Leave the shallow breathing
Breathing into Sound Leave the shallow breathing behind and breathe deep into yourself, flush your body with oxygen, and allow the gateway of sound to awaken the flow of energy within you. Breathing deep conscious inhalations while toning and/or singing; even just listening to sound, can absolutely transform your state of being. Here we will have a short discussion about what deep focused breathing and sound vibration does to the body, how sound and breathing have been used in ancient cultures, and easy ways to use this simplicity to stay focused and centered. We will then partake in a simple breathing exercise, and extend that into a sound-bath, where you can tone, breathe, and allow the energy to flow freely, releasing what no longer serves. Austin Seay My name is Seay~ the acronym to remember is “See Everyone As Yourself.” I see everyone and everything as a multitude of revolving mirrors in which we experience ourselves to be. I am me because you are you. I have been a local sound practitioner to the region for over 10 years now, helping bring out the depth of our collective experience into awareness, as well as contributing as a public speaker, specifically specializing in human behavior and the nature of consciousness. I train parrots, and love working with animals of all kinds. I am an active musician, dancer, poet, writer, and an artist in many modalities. Co-creation with nature is what inspires and fuels my growth towards bettering myself and the planet we share. Appreciation is why I am alive and continue to thrive as a part of life itself. We are all this continuous gift, making up the present moment. #sound #soundhealing #archaicroots #healing #presentation #music #instruments @see.everyone.as.yourself #learning

Psilocybin: The Medicine for Now...the fruit to evolution. Discussion and lecture focused on the entheogen Psilocybin and it’s uses in the past and present. Tellis will verbally journey through the process of his own work with this medicine, and how it helped him heal his own trauma and drug addiction. Hear stories that express the importance and healing that sacred plants can have on the human pysche, and how utlizing them for your own self-work may help you. Times are changing, with decriminilization of sacred plants being approved in regions across the world, this lecture will delve into the realm of this work and what’s required. This organically composed discussion will flow like a river, leading to the ocean of healing and education. Have questions about this this type of work? This will be a great space of learning and sharing about he importance of entheogens. Entheogen- a chemical substance, typically of plant origin, that is ingested to produce a nonordinary state of consciousness for religious or spiritual purposes. About the facilitator: Tellis Dee Johnson Entheogenist Tellis Dee Johnson, who goes by Tellis Dee, is an Etheogenist (one who utilizes sacred plant medicines) such as rape, tobacco and other psychedelic plants for divine healing, enlightenment and ritualistic purposes. Tellis Dee came to walk the path of a Didanawasgi, (medicine man in Cherokee) by trying to heal himself of soul trauma and drug addiction for over 5 years. By trade he has been a licensed cosmetologist for over 12 years. In addition to his work with sacred plant medicines, he is an artist and ceremonial fan maker. He has also begun to incorporate healing through the use of sound and transference energy into his practice. It is his mission to provide access to tools that help people to shift their perceptions and start the process of healing themselves through the use of plant intelligence. @beyondtheveil1 #archaicroots #psylocibin #entheogen #education #lecture #workshop #learning #wisdom #healing #future #healyourself
