Award-winning Australian musicians and sound healers Peter D. Harper and Bobbi Llewellyn- Harper guide a meditative sound journey and workshop centered on balance and good karma. Using the ancient Australian Indigenous didgeridoo, also known as yidaki or mako, they combine sound and color vibrational attunement with Tarot and conscious connected breath work. The program explores the themes of the solar season of Libra, including equilibrium, justice, reciprocation, and harmony. A focused meditation on Tarot card 11, Justice, pairs with didgeridoo and color attunement to support the creation of mantra for harmony, creativity, and positive karma. Winners of 14 music awards across four countries, they bring a seasoned and thoughtful approach to this immersive experience. A restorative sound bath follows, featuring resonant didgeridoo tones alongside male and female vocal intonations that employ power vowels and words to deepen meditation. Drawing on traditions where sound helps people orient across the land and call intentions into being, the session highlights how frequency can encourage brainwave entrainment and a state of profound relaxation. The sound is both heard and felt, encouraging a return to what feels natural and centered. The evolving soundscape may include Australian Indigenous message sticks, a traditional Navajo drum, Native American love flute, drone flute, crystal singing bowls, harmonica, tongue drum, rain disk, and keyboard drones. Peter and Bobbi have shared their workshops across the USA, Canada, Australia, Europe, the United Kingdom, and China.
