Her Sound Bath Meditations, breathwork and yoga offerings are for those who are wanting to relax more deeply, breathe more fully, cultivate the connection to the center of their being, nourish themselves on all levels and experience the innate healing wisdom of their inner landscape.
Qigong is an ancient Chinese practice aimed to quiet the mind and body through meditative movement. By pairing movement, intention, and breath we can reach deep relaxation and lasting health benefits. This practice allows us to connect on a deeper level to ourselves and ultimately all living things by deepening our relationship to nature and how we can live harmoniously in an ever changing environment.
Liliana completed a multidisciplinary degree in Somatic healing and Visual Arts from Fairhaven College in the early 2000’s. Her studies included a variety of modalities and practices, including Qigong, that supported traumatic release and healing through movement. Her education supported her personal experience in healing using practices such as meditation, breathwork, yoga and Qigong. Firsthand, she discovered the depth and power of these resources to untangle the patterns that we hold in the body and mind that do not serve our higher selves. Liliana continues a devoted practice of Medical Qigong, including the study of energetic healing, Taoist philosophy, and its foundational roots in Chinese Medicine. Her ambition to teach this powerful practice is to amplify our vibration through community practice. She is steeped in the innate knowing that by healing ourselves, we ultimately contribute to healing humankind and our planet.
Drum therapy encourages people to release inner trauma through meditative rhythms. Heather is delighted to bring drum therapy to you. You will be lying or sitting in a comfortable position you will hear the sounds of handmade deer and elk skin drums, along with vocal toning and chanting. You will experience a deep connection to yourself, others, and the divine spirit as we create empathy and compassion within our drumming and chanting circle. Please wear comfortable clothing and bring a yoga mat, blankets, and/or pillows to allow for complete comfort, rest, and restoration. Your goal is to release what no longer serves you as these healing vibrations reach you on the cellular level.
Heather has always been passionate about music and the healing properties of sound and mindfulness. Healing Harmony was formed as a direct result of her own healing journey and her calling to heal others. This journey brought her back home to her decades long practice of meditation, mindfulness, and music. Heather received a BA in Music from the University of Washington and completed post-graduate studies in vocal performance at New York University. She has performed with elite vocal ensembles in Japan and throughout the Pacific Northwest including the Seattle Opera. She is a certified sound therapist and lifelong meditator.
