Kirtan Yoga Circle & Sound Healing in the Yurt

Over dit evenement

Kirtan Yoga Circle:

Kirtan is a devotional singing practice from the Bhakti Yoga tradition, where simple mantras are sung together in a circle. Singing together helps create a sense of connection and makes it easy for everyone to take part, whether singing out loud or listening.

In this Kirtan Yoga Circle, we start with gentle movements and simple pranayama to warm up the body and voice. The session then moves into mantra chanting with live music, and you’re free to join in, rest, or simply listen.

This practice can help reduce stress, support emotional release and build a sense of community. No previous yoga or singing experience is needed — everyone is welcome.



Sound Healing:

The Sound Healing session offers a space to rest deeply and receive. While lying down or sitting comfortably, you’ll be guided into a meditative state through live sound and vibration. Instruments such as handpan, voice, and other harmonic sounds are used to support relaxation and inner listening.

Sound works directly on the nervous system and can help calm the mind, release stored tension, and restore a sense of balance. You’re invited to simply be with the sounds, allowing them to wash over you without effort or expectation.



Facilitators:

The sessions are guided by Vera Capou and Emre Veçhi, both yoga teachers, sound healers and musicians. Véra focuses on voice liberation, while Emre works with self-healing through handpan and rhythm.

You are welcome to arrive from 18:45 to settle in and get comfortable. The session begins at 19:00.

We start with a short meditation, followed by gentle yoga movements to relax the body and prepare for the practice. A brief pranayama (breathing) exercise then helps align the breath, body, mind and voice in preparation for kirtan.

The session continues with a kirtan circle, where we sing mantras together accompanied by live music. After the kirtan, we transition into a period of rest and relaxation with Sound Healing. Allowing time to integrate the experience and return gently to yourself.
