Veteran Vibrations Frequency Meditation at the Seattle Vet Center

  • Seattle Vet Center 305 South Lucile Street, #140 Seattle, WA, 98108 United States (map)

Cosmic Melancholy is an hour and eight minutes long and offers a sanctuary of sound for those seeking solace, understanding, and emotional balance. The carefully curated tracks invite you to surrender to the healing power of music, allowing it to guide you on a transformative journey through the cosmos of your inner world.

Contrary to popular belief, melancholy is not inherently negative; it's a natural part of the human experience. By acknowledging and honoring this emotion, we can navigate its depths with a positive outlook, using it as a catalyst for introspection and growth. "Cosmic Melancholy" serves as a powerful tool in this process, encouraging you to confront your emotions head-on and move through them with grace and resilience. - Listening to Smile

The special Circle of Return will invite participants to step into a Sonic Meditation and Sound Ceremony that will take participants on an inward journey of self-discovery and healing that will specifically target the energy centers in the body to relieve symptoms of anxiety, PTS, isolation, and pain.
