Financial Support

Our mission is to make all of our programs accessible. Every fee-based offering has a limited number of pay-what-you-can spots available to support self-identified people of color, members of marginalized groups (queer people, transgender people, and  people with disabilities) and those in financial need (those for whom the cost to attend is not financially possible). 

These spots are offered on a first come, first served basis. Please pay at the highest level you can afford. In order for this support to be available, we rely on those who can afford to pay the full price to do so.

Find out if spots are available by clicking REGISTER NOW on the event you are interested in.

We invite you to a very special sound bath meditation with Helane Anderson. In meditation, anchor the mind to the sound of Helane’s voice, gong, singing bowls and various other instruments.

Join us at Benedict Canyon and online every 3rd Monday of the month and at Hollywood Forever and online every 1st Monday of the month.

Sound Bath Meditation

Let go of your mind and then be mindful. Close your ears and listen! ~ Rumi  

Sound healing and sound therapy are powerful modalities that can induce states of deep relaxation and healing in the body, mind and soul. 

Sound bath meditation enables one to access and cultivate awareness of higher states of consciousness through the sound waves and binaural beats created through the music. This unique experience incorporates the use of voice, crystal singing bowls, gong and various other instruments. 

The session ends with a period of silence.

Who is this event for? 

This event is for anyone who would like to spend time in deep meditative relaxation, immersed in a balanced combination of sound and silence.

Everyone is welcome, including those who have never meditated before.

Where is this event located?

3rd Mondays: This event takes place in person at the Benedict Canyon Retreat House and online via Zoom. Yoga mats, blankets, chairs and meditation cushions are available. Please bring anything else (eye masks, extra layers, a journal) that may help bring ease and comfort to your experience.

1st Mondays: This event takes place at Hollywood Forever and online every 1st Monday of the month. Register for the 1st Monday event here.
