One of the unique offerings at the Japanese Friendship Garden & Museum is the monthly Sound Meditation Program, where participants experience the ancient practice of sound healing.
Guided by expert instructors such as Lindsey Roach and Noriko Whitfield, these sessions use therapeutic frequencies to balance the body and soothe the mind, promoting relaxation and a deeper connection to one’s inner self.
- 2nd Saturday of every month - Instructor: Lindsey Roach
- 4th Saturday of every month - Instructor: Noriko Whitfield
“The sound baths are incredibly rejuvenating. It’s a multi-sensory experience that leaves me feeling calm and at peace.”
