The journey into Sound is simply one of frequency. To tune into the healing sounds and share as an a community experience is a great blessing for the facilitator. Also a practice that can be demanding - much of the focus at the past weekend was on fiddling with wires and equipment. But at the heart of the practice is the blessing of sound, t history can be found within, straight from Source. Thank you Janet for this space for sacred sound experiences. Thank you @shantifestival for another Festival of Shanti! #johannkotzemusic https://www.instagram.com/p/Co6fd9SNaUN/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Post Diwali and pre whatever the future holds… Now. Be Here, Now. What a great practice, to be present. The only place where life is available, some say. This was my 2017 visit to the Ganges, Rishikesh. Flowing from further North and the Himalayas it still runs fairly clean at this point. #ganga #ramdass (at Lakshman Jhula Rishikesh) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkfZHbYNSKo/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

How serious are we? And are we focussen? For me it is fun to be both - and having with comes more easily as contrast to stillness, meditation and… chanting practice and mantra events with @janetsplanet.co.za (at Johann Kotze Music & Yoga) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkNT15itC4L/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A simple practice can be full of power. Just believe it! In awareness of Source and the vibrational reality we don’t need anything to be in conscious connection with nature and the universe. We will use the most simple of tools at this weekend’s New Moon Sound Healing @sacredearthandstormschool to activate and tune the body and its chakra system to become more aware of its simple magnificence. See the bio - 27th 3-5 PM.

Sound. Shadow and light. We live in a sonic landscape, and a world of form and formlessness. My world is informed by my yoga practice and shaped by these Tibetan prayer flags and singing bowl, electric guitar and flowers. This Saturday I’m doing a simple chakra activation at Pringle Bay 3-5 PM @sacredearthandstormschool Please see bio for details. #soudhealing #johannkotzeyoga #johannkotzemusic https://www.instagram.com/p/ChmZuaat-3W/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Teaching yoga at home is, for obvious reasons, more comfortable than in the park, or on the beach across the road. It is also less adventurous. Standing in the kitchen this evening I thought back to countless venues from church and community halls, gymnasiums and garages and my garden on the farm decades ago. It all served their purpose. And all of it leads to the same place: to be here, now. (at Johann Kotze Music & Yoga) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgkT23itbYE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Creativity and nature. Dolphins and whales flying in a forest. I frequently wonder what it will take for more people to care more for nature. There seem to be too many who are indifferent and enough that are okay to destroy the planet. Is the destruction of nature the result of breakdown of humanity’s connection to its own nature? A disconnect to the nature of reality? What is consciousness and conscious behavior? How is destructive behavior changed? @baardskeerdersbosartroute (at Baardskeerdersbos) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cb-ILQqqZTt/?utm_medium=tumblr

Actualisation. Who Are We, and how do we find out what we are doing here, in life, on earth? Or is it In Life, On Earth? Our guides, In Yoga, are those who went before us. The True Gurus are those who recognized who they actually are as human beings. By that Light they became Self Actualised, or Realised Beings. When we practice yoga as a Way of Being, Yoga shows us the Way - and by this Light we learn to put its practices into practice. #johannkotzeyoga #guru #yogaveda #sivananda #venkatsenanda (at Johann Kotze Music & Yoga) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cbzf1Brtx_O/?utm_medium=tumblr

Energy is vibration, and movement, versus stagnation, is healthy. Harmony and synergy, in contrast to chaos, helps activate optimal function of all body-mind systems. This Saturday, 12 March, 3 - 4.30 PM, I am hosting an immersive sound vibration experience "Monochord & Mantra" at my yoga studio on Beach Road, opposite the pavilion. The monochord and produces a soothing, immersive sound that, coupled with relaxed deep breathing, assists with bodymind stress release and healing. The session includes a simple chakra mantra activation and a chance to experience lying on the monochord soundbed to resonate on a cellular level with its 28 strings. #johannkotzemusic #monochord #yogamusician #yogahealing #yogamantra #vibrationalhealing #soundhealing #soundjourneys (at Johann Kotze Music & Yoga) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca4yyE9t3s7/?utm_medium=tumblr
