ReBoot : ReConnect : ReIgnite yourself with Alicia Ma Ri Atu Ma / Hush Hour

With profound and often mystical guided meditations, powerful gong baths, podcasts and more, Hush Hour is all about making time for YOU. Time to stop rushing through life, to drop the stress, and consciously invest in re-booting your mind, body and spirit. There’s no better time than now to re-ignite your deepest, most intuitive self, and to reconnect to Earth and all of nature. So help yourself, and choose to slip into something more comfortable; such as a calm and relaxed way of being in the world.

You don’t even have to be a dedicated meditator, because a gong or sound bath with guided visualisation is probably the easiest route to a state of deep relaxation. In fact, nothing is required of you except to turn up, lie down, and chill out.

The opening visualisation will ease you into the Alpha and Theta brainwave states that allow your body to soften into a state of pause. No water is involved in the Gong Bath that follows; the pulses of sound and frequency from Planet Gongs and other healing instruments cause the cells of the body to vibrate sympathetically, delivering a massage at a level below conscious awareness – which sometimes manifests as tingling sensations under the skin.

The total effect can be to stimulate the body’s own innate self-healing mechanisms, as well as a reduction in levels of stress. Repeated use of visualisation techniques can stimulate intuition and creativity too.

Feel free to bring some crystals if you have them. It is recommended that you wear warm layers including socks, as body temperature drops quickly in a deeply relaxed state.

Please note that the session will begin 15 minutes after the published start time, which is 8pm for Friday sessions and 2pm for Sundays. Please don’t arrive earlier, as we will still be setting up 🙂 People arriving more than 15 minutes after the start time will not be admitted to avoid disturbing other participants.

Sessions are normally 1.5 hours duration, and prices range from £15- £22 depending on employment status. At the moment, I am running my events monthly on Fridays and fortnightly on Sunday afternoons, though these arrangements are subject to change. Please go to my website  www.hushhour.net to book.

Gong Baths are normally safe for all, but there are some medical conditions that need special consideration. Please make sure to read the health disclaimer on the ticket form before completing your purchase. No claims for any cure are made or implied.

About Alicia

This is me, Alicia Ma Ri Atu Ma; the face behind Hush Hour (formerly Earth Song Sound Healing). The second part of my name was given to me by Huna Flash ( AKA Mauta Taki), a Maori elder, in an initiation ceremony in 2022, and I am a fully certified and insured therapeutic sound practitioner..

Though 2023 is the 10th year since I began my exploration of therapeutic sound and its transformative potential, I’ve been a practising musician for over 30 years: a percussionist with a special interest in the music and culture of West Africa. The “Way of the Gong” may have taken me on a journey for over a decade, but the path to mastery never ends, and I continue to look for new ways to explore the art of sound. I like to refer to myself as an ‘acoustic alchemist’: one who blends, concocts and conjures with hypnotic sounds and creative visualisations for the purpose of enhancing a sense of wellbeing.

I make my unique guided meditations to maximise the power of the imagination, filling them with positive suggestions. These journeys are a favourite of mine because the subconscious mind can’t distinguish between imagination and reality, making inner visions a potent tool for self-change. Stimulating the mind’s eye also helps to balance the left and right hemispheres of the brain, improving access to creativity and intuition.

The work I do now is a natural evolution for me; coming full circle from the moment I first discovered I had healing hands, aged about 19. Now, the same hands create a sanctuary of sound to soothe mind, body and spirit.

Sound Therapy, The Chakras & Reiki Healing

For the next several weeks, join us as we bring alignment and balance to the 7 Chakras, combined with the subtle universal energy of Reiki which you have direct access to.  Sound works with intention, and so words weaved into a short meditation will formulate the guided intentional experience as we work with these subtle energies.

More detailed info can be found on the ticket links below.

As always Sunday afternoons will continue to serve as a gentle re-boot in preparation for the week ahead where therapeutic sounds will help soothe, calm and quieten the mind, triggering your body’s ability to self-regulate and heal.

A time and space to recharge, breathe, and recalibrate your senses, allowing for a balancing effect to take place as we practice the regenerative process of self-care and self-love. We press the pause button, and time the time to simply Relax, Rest, and Restore!

CHAKRAS

In the human body there are seven main chakras that run along the length of the body in alignment with the organs and their specific functions. These rotating vortices of subtle matter, act as energy centres, considered the focal points for the reception and transmission of energies affecting our health and vitality via the contraction or flow of life energy.

REI-KI

Joh trained in Reiki healing in 1998, a non-invasive healing practise that stimulates the body’s own natural healing capabilities.  Rei means ‘spiritual essence’.  Ki means ‘energy’, describing the energy of everything.  Ki is the same as chi, qi, prana or life force.  When something dies, the life force energy of the organism departs.

Working with the subtle energies of the body, reiki radiates through all creation.  We have access to this energy and it begins when we bring attention to the subtle awareness of movement and consciousness.  It runs through the CHAKRAS, MERIDIANS AND NADIS, passing directly through the organs and tissues of the body.

This energy is freely available to us all! It is both magnetic and electric.  We are both magnetic and electrical beings and tapping into this naturally available energy is our birthright!

If this resonates please do consider joining us for a chilled afternoon where you need to do nothing. Just bring yourself, your own mat and blanket if you wish (although provided), and a small bottle of water to hand. Thats it!

CHAKRA BALANCING URBAN MIST SPRAYS 

These are handmade products that have been charged and amplified with specific sound healing frequencies relevant to that chakra.  They were created by Joh to help connect us back to the chakras and to bring alignment and balance.

Sometimes we just need reminding in a way that is evocative, pleasurable, uplifting and engages the senses in a healing and rejuvenating way. You may purchase on the day and my ETSY.   Special offers will apply at this event.

About Joh Johnson

Joh is a Sound healing therapist and author.  Her introduction into the world of Sound healing came after training and qualifying in other therapies including Cognitive Hypnotherapy, EFT, Theta Healing and Massage.  Joh has been a Reiki Master for more than 20 yrs.

Joh uses mostly the Symphonic Gong as it carries the widest range of tones, frequencies and harmonics to facilitate a healing response.  The tones will vibrate the cells of the body, and where there is a lack of `harmony’ or discordance in the body, the Gong will support and bring greater equilibrium to the body.  The experience allows you to become cocooned and wrapped in an envelope of nurturing energy where nothing else exists except the sounds.  In this relaxed, elevated and meditative state, the mental, emotional and physical body becomes superconducting and super-regenerative, where a triggered self-healing response can take place more readily. 

Joh also works with the less familiar Tuning Pipes which are the same as tuning forks but louder and more resonant for longer.  They play single notes that target and interact more specifically with particular energy spots bringing about major positive shifts in the energetic patterns within and surrounding the human body.

The frequencies generated can help shift stuck energy blocks quickly and effectively.  The sound is pure and will quickly move you into a space of lightness as it re-attunes, re-aligns you, moving you into a greater state of harmony.

With Chai Francesco

This one-of-a-kind workshop, hosted by the Maestro practitioner Chai Francesco, invites participants to escape the relentless glow of screens and immerse themselves in a world of healing vibrations and self-discovery.

The overarching goal of Sensory Awakening is to counteract technology’s numbing effects on our physical and emotional health. It acknowledges the need for individuals to reclaim their sense of self in the face of an increasingly digitalized world.

Participants are guided through a carefully curated series of exercises to gain a better understanding of their own emotions. Sensory Awakening seeks to create space for these emotions to be expressed. The workshop represents a return to the self.

Attendees learn the fundamentals of self-healing through practical techniques and gentle exercises, which empower them to incorporate these practices into their daily lives. The emphasis is on simplicity and accessibility so that participants leave with a toolkit of skills that they can easily incorporate into their daily routines.

Instruments:

Quarts and metal singing bowls, Gong, tuning forks, Shamanic drums, chimes, voice.

Benefits of Sound Healing include:

Improved mood, sense of calm, tranquillity and relaxation. Alleviation of stress or anxiety. Relief from physical pain, ailments or tension in the body. Improved mental focus or clarity of thought, and more.
