Community Song Circle in Weaverville: 1st & 3rd Thursdays

Join us as we gather at Harmony House to cultivate a sense of belonging and well-being through community singing!

We lift our voices in joy, grief, honor, and praise, and find that when we tune our voices together we create the opportunity to tune into something bigger than ourselves. These songs remind us of our unique humanness, as well as our connection to all life- our belonging to the world. These are songs for everyone, regardless of singing experience.

Each circle we focus on a different theme. You are also more than welcome to bring songs to teach the group! These circles take on a beautiful life of their own when we are all sharing together.

Sing For The Trees! Save The UNCA Woods

Sing For The Trees! Save The UNCA Woods

UNC Asheville’s 45-acre urban forest has been a cherished community resource and wildlife habitat for decades. It’s now under threat of development, despite its status as one of the last remaining urban forests in Asheville.

There are a variety of actions you can take to help save the woods. Check out saveuncawoods.org for more information on how to get involved

Sunday, March 16th, we will gather at 3 pm sharp to sing for (and to) The Trees! This will be a space to be share in deep reverence for the forest, to feel what’s in alive in our hearts, to honor and praise the wild through song as well as to learn about the forest, what’s going on there, and actions we can take to help protect this special place.

Lillie Lumina, seasoned song-leader, singer-songwriter, and music-therapist will guide the group in singing a variety of nature-based songs. The songs are easy to learn and sing along, with phrases that repeat many times, like mantras for the mamma . You are also more than welcome to bring songs to teach the group.

All voices welcome!
Free of charge

Each month we focus on a different theme. This month Lillie Lumina will guide the group in songs of Belonging. You are also more than welcome to bring songs to teach the group! These circles take on a beautiful life of their own when we are all sharing together.

Contact Improvisation is a partner dance form based on the physical principles of touch, momentum, shared weight, and most quintessentially - following a shared point of contact.

Free Your Voice
May

Free Your Voice

Join us as we explore the delight of embodied expression through sound! Using a combination of breathwork and vocal sounds we will explore stepping more powerfully into using our voices without fear or judgement. We will use this container as a way to practice holding each person’s unique expression within community. By tuning in to our own unique vibration, we can begin to discover the voice as a profound gateway for connection and transformation. By expressing our own unique vibration alongside other unique vibrations we create a rich and diverse community song.

*For all people with voices*

No singing experience necessary!

Lillie Lumina is a Board-Certified Music Therapist, Singer-Songwriter, Reiki Practitioner, and Vocal Explorer based out of Asheville, NC. Emotional expression and authenticity are at the root of all that she does. She believes firmly in the power of music to heal, transform, and connect us as human beings and is passionate about creating safe containers for people to access this power.

From past participants:

“If you're searching for a sign to show up authentically, to reserve your rightful space, to be witnessed, to express your innerness, here is your invitation. Something big and beautiful happened for me recently. I attended Lillie's 'Free Your Voice' workshop and was cracked open from the inside out. I touched, explored, and deepened into my deepest wounds and desires. I was amazed at the way my body held a childhood memory, and how this unfinished situation had been internalized, manifesting itself into my adulthood… I was gifted, and gifted myself, the opportunity to revisit a fragmented memory and free myself from the falseness. Now, I am free to decide for myself whether I am worthy on my own. Of course I am. My body holds many stories and many songs. Your body does, too. I invite you to share. If you don't know where to start, I invite you to consider the beautiful and powerful Lillie Lumina.”

-K.B, Free Your Voice Participant, Asheville NC

"I accessed parts of my voice and my self that I didn't know were there. Lillie helped me feel safe and comfortable to express myself in my own unique way. At first I was scared to sing, but this workshop has unlocked somethings inside of me that I can't wait to explore more!"
- A.S., Free Your Voice Participant, Asheville NC

"It's so beautiful to witness people opening up and the way we kind of lose ourselves in the collective sound"

Discovering Self Through Sound
May
6
to May 27

Discovering Self Through Sound

Join us for a four-week transformational journey as we allow music, movement, art, poetry, and sound to guide us deeply into ourSelves, opening pathways for new understanding and growth.Each of these creative modalities offers a unique access point for understanding our inner worlds. We will use the expressive arts as metaphor, as a way to move energy, as a unifying force, and as spiritual practice. When we layer these modalities together with presence and intention, it allows for a rich and dynamic exploratory process. Within the context of a non-judgmental therapeutic container, these new awarenesses and understandings have space to be held, witnessed, and integrated into your being. Welcome home the parts of you that have been abandoned, shamed, criticized, and unloved. Get to know them, hold them, hear them, understand their worlds. Allow them to express themselves in a variety of creative ways, bringing them into presence and love. 

In each session, participants will be guided through several creative experiences designed to bring awareness to unique aspects of of ourselves. For example, we may begin with a group check in, followed by a guided meditation, leading into authentic movement elaborating the theme of the meditation. We may then spend time writing poetry in our journals and go right into a music experience using the poetry. We will always end with a group sharing/ processing experience.

------------------------------------------------------------------

This will be an intimate container, open to just 10 people. Participants are highly encouraged to attend all four sessions.

Mondays from 6-8 pm

May 6th- 27th at The Auricle (68 Kentucky dr)

Earlybird:$150
After April 22nd: $215

From past participants:

“What a wonderful month long experience with Lillie and the other participants in “Discovering Self Through Sound”. We meditated, made sounds, made music, explored edges and through it all I found myself softening my preconceived notions of what I thought I was “supposed” to be doing or experiencing… and instead began to ease more into the gentle (and sometimes wild) nature of my natural authentic self wanting to either lie quietly and whisper or a more melodic part that might want to sing loud and proud, bash on the piano, or explore infinite modes of exploration like a child. Through it all I feel more FREE to express and connect with myself and others through sound and music. So much gratitude for the container and expert facilitation Lillie provided and for the many activities and instruments that aided in the exploration. 10/10 highly recommend working with Lillie and her various offerings.”
