TeAda Productions is excited to announce CreAtive Healing Lab (CHL) which will take place from March through June, 2025. As part of this series, 7 all-star guest teaching artists will facilitate 7 workshops that combine the arts, social justice, and collective healing. The goal of CHL is to be a sanctuary-third place for community to gather, process current events, imagine sustainable futures, community-build, and heal through sharing space and creating art.
The fourth workshop of this series is titled “Collective Rest through Sound Healing” and will be led by Meena Malik.
About the workshop: You are invited to a space to reflect on your rest practice, release narratives that no longer serve you, set intentions, and simply rest. In this 2-hour session, you will be immersed in mantra chanting and the healing sounds of crystal singing bowls as you move through guided meditation, movement, breath work, and journal reflection. Through deepening your practice of sound meditation, you will reconnect with your natural state of rest and remember your powerful ability to be fully present. In a world that keeps us moving, this gathering offers a space to pause, process, and restore in community. Together, we will reclaim rest as an essential part of healing and collective liberation.
About the facilitator: Meena Malik (she/her) is a musician, sound healer, arts consultant, conflict mediator and coach.
