Add on: Sound Healing Sessions

Individual Sound Healing Offerings by Kerry Cataline, Bowls On Bodies Yoga and Sound Healing

Saturday, June 8, 2024, from 1 -5 pm.


Sound Healing uses the voice and other musical instruments to create a harmonic resonance and vibration along with intention that is inherently therapeutic. It can help to restore balance in the body, reduce stress, anger, depression, and fatigue; invites deep rest and relaxation releasing tension and energy promoting emotional balance. Provides an opportunity to explore self-inquiry; be in a meditative state; provide deep relaxation with a profound sense of feeling nurtured and supported.


An individual sound healing session is a deeply relaxing and harmonizing experience to quiet the body, mind, and to restore balance. Sound and vibration are created from the voice, and instruments including metal or crystal sound bowls and tuning forks, which may be placed on the body, while other instruments (Native American drum, ocean or river drum, shakers, flute, etc.) may be played around the body in the subtle energy fields and energy centers (chakras).


Participants can choose from and schedule the following individual sound healing offerings:

30-minute session uses tuning forks, sound bowls and energy work - $44

60-minute session uses all aspects of voice, sound bowls, tuning forks, other instruments, and energy

work - $74

Hey there! I’m KC of AcuYogini. I teach yoga and do bodywork to empower people. I believe the world needs more people that are confident and compassionate. That is why my yoga classes are accessible for everyone: they are about how the form arises from you…from the inside out, rather than imposing a form from the outside in. Yes, you’ll learn alignment…and you’ll learn how to flow through your yoga in an organic, fluid, way to discover your inner teacher! Learn more about me and my work at: https://www.acuyogini.com/

KC's Yin retreat was just perfect! I met so many lovely women and ate the most delicious food all weekend. Between the yin, journaling, the sound bath, yoga nidra, drumming, and simply being in a beautiful setting with like minded individuals, I felt more relaxed than I have in a long, long time. Everything about this trip was magical. So much thought and care went into every detail. Every activity flowed beautifully into the next and I will be coming back every year going forward! Absolutely wonderful! Thank you, KC and friends for creating such a restful experience!

This retreat exceeded all of my expectations. The Yin Yoga, drum circle!, sound healing, and Yoga Nidra blew my mind. Everything was five-star stellar. The food menu was to die for as they catered to everyone’s needs: vegan, meat eaters, gluten free, nothing was missed by the caterers. My heart was so full of joy. ~Bridget Q. Folsom, CA

Awesome Bridget, so this so great to hear! Thank you for being at the retreat- it's always good to see you! 🙏🌼

The retreat was so relaxing and truly special. The use of indoor and outdoor spaces was enjoyable. Being in the middle of nature enhanced the experience. The sense of self-connection encouraged through the yin, yoga nidra, relaxation, sound healing, and drumming circle was unique. The meals were fantastic, fresh, and always available for all eating styles. I highly recommend this retreat for anyone who needs to slow down, unplug, and go inward. Thank you, KC!

I enjoyed this retreat so much and I can't wait for the full weekend one in 2023. Food by Miele was included- delicious! You can taste the love she puts into her cooking. KC's yoga is so gentle! I always love her yoga classes. I loved learning more acupressure points. I would have never taken a drumming class had it not been for this retreat. I ended up enjoying it immensely. I think I'll take more drumming classes in retirement. :-)
