BRISTOL - Release Your Ecstatic Vibe Machine: a Guided Journey through Yoga, Laughter & Voice with Pete the Temp & Martha Allitt

For the Psychedelic Society’s first in-person Bristol event of 2021, join us for a fun and cathartic journey through the body and voice. We invite you to come into a space of connection with one another and with deeper elements of the self, finding expression built on the framework of traditional practices. 

We will begin with a grounding meditation and sharing circle, followed by a creative, vinyasa yoga flow to tune into our breath and body, in a dance-like fashion. We will then connect to our center of joy with a laughter practice, and find release through playful vocal exercises.

This adventure will be both revitalizing and profoundly silly. In a space free of judgment, we encourage you to find your inner child as we dance, laugh, and make noise together. 

Due to COVID, we require you to bring your own mat and any props.
