<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Last week, we hosted Tammie Rain Hayes from Houghton Lake for a unique and relaxing sound healing meditation program, and it was fantastic. Tammie brings all of her own instruments, including
<span style="background:white">gongs, drums, tuning forks, chimes, and singing bowls, plus cozy tapestries, blankets, and pillows to make the space extra relaxing. We encouraged participants to bring their own yoga mat, blanket, pillow, etc.
</span>During the program, she shared some insightful benefits about how sound heals, but the majority of the time was spent quietly lying on our yoga mats, while Tammie came around and gave individualized attention to each person with each instrument. After
the session, those who wanted could share their experience with the group. We had a wonderful turnout, lots of young people ages 25-45, which is a demographic I love to get into library programs. Tammie was great to work with, and the passion she has for this
work shows throughout the experience. If you’re looking to provide a similar library program for your community, I highly recommend Tammie! Thanks-<o:p></o:p></p>
