Sonic Bliss ~ A Sound Bath Journey into Higher Consciousness

Sonic Bliss is a harmonic tapestry of sacred sound vibration that’s produced by Alchemy crystal singing bowls, metal bowls, voice, chimes, and other sonic tools that is deeply relaxing, calming and restorative. This rich immersive soundscape can be experienced as an inner body sound massage that is very healing to mind, body and spirit. It attunes us with higher frequencies of light from Cosmic forces, and deepens our connection with the pulsations and natural rhythms of the Earth. Sacred Sound is a powerful medium for magnifying our intentions and has the ability transform us on multiple levels.

Maryanne Savino is a Sonic Alchemyst and Chantress with over 20 years of experience in the art and science of Sound Healing. Her mission is to assist others in achieving personal growth and to help them access their infinite potential for transformation. She offers private sessions and group events in NYC.

Serpent & the Wave

A Sensual Journey through  Breath & Movement

Image by Pam Turczyn

 Serpent & the Wave is much more than a movement practice - it is a way of life that activates and explores  your inner feminine qualities - softness, nurturing,  flowing, sensuality and receptivity. Fixed postures deny us of  our feminine power.  The movements are fluid and more yin-like, with less structure and without force. 

Through an integration of breath awareness and  undulating serpentine wave motion, your innate wisdom will guide you to explore and deepen into each movement according to your own specific needs. The wave motion stimulates the fluid systems in the body, thereby creating healing on multiple levels.

Sensation is a pathway to pleasurable embodiment and self connection.  Like the snake, we shed our skin of old limiting patterns and move out of stagnation into liberation, and through the motion of the oceanic wave, we are cleansed and renewed to feel more deeply and fully in body.

This is a unique practice that offers wonderful opportunities to awaken, unfold, grow and transform so that we can move through life with joy, ease and greater awareness.

Dancing the Priestess Path

This profoundly transformative sacred dance journey calls forth the Divine energies of the Goddess to flow through us for healing and awakening ecstatic pleasure in the body. It is a dancing path of Alchemy.

 Through consciously breathing, feeling, opening, and exploring the depths of our female sexuality, we activate our pleasure centers to awaken vitality, sensuality and creativity. 

The foundation for this practice comes from the elemental forces of  creation ~ Earth, Water, Air, Fire & Spirit.  There are four basic movements that are associated with power animals ~Snake, Bird, Dolphin & Lion.

The movements are woven into an organic expression of the Divine to help us dissolve body armor that has kept us stuck in limitation and struggle.  Through releasing and transmuting, we can then experience pleasurable embodiment to celebrate life in freedom and with joy!

The use of Mudras (hand gestures) and Vocal Alchemy (sacred  tonal sounds and chants of the Divine Mother) are sometimes explored to enhance the experience for greater connection and empowerment.

In ancient times, the temple priests & priestesses navigated into other worlds - they entered altered states of consciousness through sacred dance and sound to align with the Universal forces of creation. Mother Earth was greatly honored and loved, and the priests & priestesses knew that through embodiment of the Sacred Feminine and Awakened Masculine, one could attain harmony and balance with all life.

“The body is a temple of divinity-a sacred vessel to express your uniqueness and to experience life as a soul being in human form."
