Description
Four Hearts, a local “sound medicine” collective, is offering a heart-opening Sound Journey in conjunction with Valentine’s Day. The group uses musical instruments and ceremonial cacao to guide participants into a relaxing, meditative state which benefits physical and mental wellbeing.
Experience the Four Hearts Sound Journey the Saturday after Valentine’s Day, on February 15, from 4 to 6 p.m. at the Box Factory for the Arts, 1101 Broad St. in St. Joseph. Tickets are $40. Reserve your spot at ticketstripe.com/4heartssoundyoga. Walk-ins are also welcome.
The sound journey (also called a sound bath) can take people to a hypnagogic state (between wakefulness and sleep) where they can access the subconscious layers of the mind, leading to deep healing for the body and mind. “When you set intentions in these brainwave frequencies, you bypass the thinking mind and go straight to the soul,” White said. “We’re setting the intention of this being a very heart-centered experience.”
Participants can expect to be reclined on the floor; chairs are also available. Although the sound practitioners will have comfortable supplies on hand, they encourage participants to bring their own mat, blanket, or pillow to enhance their relaxation. Four Hearts Sound Journey is a delightful way to celebrate Valentine’s Day weekend with a friend or loved one – or treat yourself!

Four Hearts is comprised of local yoga teachers and sound practitioners Adrienne White, Luke Andresen, Ann Campbell and Robert Fowler. Their instruments include gongs, hand pans, guitar, crystal bowls, drums, chimes and Tibetan bowls, which they use to help participants relax and enter deep brain-wave states of dreaming and meditation. Cacao (pronounced kuh-COW), a chocolate drink used for centuries in sacred healing ceremonies, will be served. “Cacao is known to be an elixir for opening and softening the heart,” said Adrienne White, who owns The Collective yoga studio in Benton Harbor.
