Food and Supplementation are often at the forefront of the Medical Medium®️ healing discussions. But one of the MOST important aspects of healing is the SPIRITUAL aspect of healing.

11:00 Short introductions
11:15 Discussion/Q&A
11:55 Bathroom Break
12:00 Continue Discussion/Q&A
12:25 Closing Blessing
(Please be on time. We’ll begin right at 11:00).
*Please be in a location with a quiet background and where you can devote your full attention to the person speaking. We often get personal and emotional and being present helps keep this a safe and compassionate space.
Buncombe County face covering requirement expires as COVID-19 metrics continue to improve.
COVID-19 metrics are continuing to improve overall. Since Jan. 18, there has been a 67% drop in new cases per 100,000 per week. The current new case rate is 386 new cases per 100,000 per week. Buncombe County is continuing to see a fairly rapid decline from week to week in new cases. Additionally, the percent positivity continues to decline and has fallen from 19.6% last week to 15.5% this week.
Hospitalization indicators are now more favorable and there has been a considerable drop in inpatient hospital beds occupied with COVID-19 from last week to this week. Last week, the percent of inpatient beds occupied by COVID-19 was 13.4% and is now 8.8%. As of Monday, there were 104 total patients with COVID-19 in the Mission Health System as compared to a peak of 196 patients three weeks ago. ICU utilization continues to fall and is now well below 30%.
Deaths, unfortunately, have increased. Sadly, 21 new deaths were added to the dashboard, however, only 9 of these occurred in the last week. The remaining deaths occurred in weeks previous but were delayed in being reported. This has caused the local death rate to jump to 8 new deaths per 100,000 per week. It is likely that the death rate will fluctuate for several more days or weeks as deaths are the most lagging of all the indicators.

Feeling stressed, overwhelmed, anxious, or do you desire to relax, be supported, and experience meditative sounds? Arrive at the Sound Nest and leave the outside world behind beginning with a cup of soothing tea. Slip off your shoes and enter a comforting and nurturing room filled with special instruments to soothe your cares and nervous system. Dawn walks participants through what to expect in a tranquil and reassuring way. The bespoke sound healing journey can be tailored to support your life experience. Grounding gongs, timeless & soaring singing bowls, refreshing chimes, a relaxing ocean drum, amongst other instruments help us to re-imagine life and bring fresh air to the intensity that life naturally brings. Dawn welcomes groups up to 7 with space to lay down, more are welcome if seated upright. Private group or individual sessions are happily arranged in addition to the time shown here, please contact Dawn. We can also do sessions instructing how to play the instruments if booked specifically for that goal. Please also contact for private sessions where we can focus on specific support for your current life experiences. We will wear masks for these events following local guidelines.
Dawn has studied music since childhood and has enjoyed practicing massage therapy for 21 years helping people relax and relieve pain. Since 2015, Dawn dove deep into sound healing utilizing gongs, singing bowls, harmonium, and various bells, chimes, whistles, and drums. She has studied with numerous teachers including Mitch Nur, Mike Tamburo, Mehtab Benton, and Mike Cohen, exploring how sound affects our bodies and brains through physics, physiology, and biology.
Get lost in a tribal flow, led by Tara Eschenroeder, aimed at self love & discovery as you are bathed in the angelic sounds of Hope Griffin.
Wandering through this life we connect with the magic of the elements of nature. Through the earth, our breath, yoga and sweet music we ground deep in our roots. We return to our heart space. The air is wild, free and full of possibility. Water nourishes our souls while reminding us to go with the flow… We ignite the fire of passion and light an awakening within, becoming one with the elements and connecting under one sun with one voice. Join International Yoga Instructor Tara Eschenroeder (aka “Great Abiding Yoga”) and Guitarist/Singer/Songwriter Hope Griffin for a yoga flow with live music. May we align our breath to free movement and the rhythm of our hearts!
From a primal flow to the beat of finger tapping, to a gentle meditative dance to harmonics, to meditation to the croons of the guitar, to the transcendental hum of the voice of an angel, the rhythms of the music guide us as we connect with our own internal rhythms and sense of knowing.
Hope and Tara will take you on a journey of the senses. While drinking in the sacred sounds of the music, we take that the ability to listen and to feel even deeper within. We tap into that intuitive sense of knowing; how and when to move and when to be still. Allow yourself to reconnect to that sacred animal within, ultimately reminding us how to simply be both on and off of the yoga mat.
$30 early bird (Feb 19) $35 general admission. [Indoors. bring a mat & mask]

The Super Glow Breathwork Experience: The Special Crystal Circuit, Healing Breathwork Journey
Our Signature Breathwork Journey for Vitality & Holistic Healing. We are very excited to invite you to join us in community for breathwork in front of a super powerful, high vibration crystal altar at Altar Alchemy. To breathe in front of this sacred altar is what we call “The Crystal Circuit”.
To practice with the breath is to practice connecting to the truth within. It’s to let go of all that’s ready to be released and open to that which is ready to be born. In this workshop we will be utilizing the scientifically proven, potent and effective modality of rebirthing breathwork to unveil and release stagnancy lingering in the body, mind, and spirit. By opening ourselves to the power of breath we are able to manually remove these energetic blockages, making available a clearer psyche and creative life force. This practice is transformational, insightful, a pathway for infinite possibility and heightened consciousness.
Breathwork’s natural benefits:
Rewire your emotional default settings
Stimulate your immune system
Open up to more life force energy
Clear patterns of sadness/anxiety/depression/addiction
Improve sleep
Detoxify your mind/body/spirit
Gain access to a greater sense of aliveness
Promote feelings of aliveness, peace & connection
Connect you to self-knowledge/intuition/higher wisdom
Awaken your authentic & embodied self
Discover your innate authenticity, freedom & joy
Help access your creativity & open your heart to deep gratitude & self-love
Breathwork is a safe & simple experiential process. During the breathwork session we breathe lying down for over an hour. This practice is available to everyone regardless of ability, age or experience.
We will use a connected & conscious breathing rhythm called “circular breath” to flood the body with O2. In addition, for those who desire It, you will be supported with our powerful, hands on reiki & energy work during the session. This breathwork journey will last for approximately 70 minutes and will be accompanied by a powerful musical playlist to assist the journey. There will be an opening & closing circle, before and after, to share intentions, guidance and reflections.
Come and explore the emotional, spiritual and transpersonal realms and come home to your own truth. Wear loose & comfortable clothing so that you can breathe & move without restriction. You will want to bring your own yoga mat, or anything that would help you to deepen into relaxation.
All are welcome. Join us!
“One breathing session was more powerful and beneficial to me than months of talk therapy! Brian & Annie are amazing!” -Stephanie F.
“Powerful work last night. I have not felt so safe and relaxed anytime in recent memory. The energy work that you two provided throughout the breathing process was exactly what I needed at those moments. I swear that I felt my muscles relaxing from the inside out of my chest and back. Thanks to Annie and Brian!” -Patrick C
“Thank you Annie and Brian for holding such a safe, supportive, healing space. What a powerful experience for me! I’m still feeling the effects from it.” -Julia P.
Brian & Annie have been leading workshops around the world for over fifteen years combined and are excited to share this special evening with you!
