An Experiential Workshop with Sound Meditation
Led by Eben Alexander MD and Karen Newell
Book signing to follow the workshop
 

Join New York Times best-selling author Eben Alexander MD and co-founder of Sacred Acoustics Karen Newell on an exploration of life and consciousness. In 2008, Dr. Alexander spent seven days in a coma due to severe bacterial meningitis. While in coma with his brain shut down, he experienced a spectacular odyssey to realms beyond our known physical universe—an ultra-real journey that ran counter to all conventional neuro-scientific views about brain, mind and consciousness. As detailed in his book, Proof of Heaven, sound provided the crucial engine for traversing spiritual dimensions during his incredible experience.

In this workshop, Dr. Alexander will share in depth about his inner journey then and now and the essential lessons he has learned. He and Karen Newell will describe the tools developed by Sacred Acoustics that each of us can use to explore our own connection to inner knowing and the deeper realities of our existence. Ms. Newell will lead the group in a guided sound meditation to experience for themselves that the answers truly lie within us all. There will be time to process, ask questions and discuss how to integrate the insights from meditation into everyday living.
