Sarah Sopracolle, Sound Seed Yoga
Sound Bath by Candlelight // Speaker // Morning Yoga
Sarah Sopracolle, Quadra Island local, intuitive sound healer and owner of Sound Seed Yoga, shares sonic sessions inspired by Nada Yoga (the yoga of sound) and vibrational medicine.
As a gardener she tends to the earth, prepares the grounds and plants seeds on both the ethereal and physical planes. She allows her voice to be guided to what is needed for the greatest good of ALL beings. Along with voice, she plays the singing bowls, the shamanic drum and a variety of other sound medicine instruments.
Join Sarah as she shares about her journey, on how she merged her love of music with her spiritual path and the heart opening experience in Kauai which led to her following her teenage dream of traveling to India to study yoga. Discover the immense power of Sound and some practical techniques that can be easily be incorporated in to daily life, for centering, connecting and grounding.
Following her talk on Friday evening, Sarah will offer a Sound Bath on Saturday evening and a yoga session on Sunday morning so you get to experience the benefits of the powerful practices she shares.

“The Celebrate You retreat hosted at the Heriot Bay Inn was an amazing experience held in a truly magical place. Even though the weather was less than cooperative, Sheri and the team came together and pivoted to ensure that participants had an amazing and unforgettable experience. The food was delicious, beautifully presented and very plentiful. The staff were exceptionally attentive, and retreat facilitators were highly qualified and inspiring. Even the humpback whale graced us with their presence… it was truly a celebration.”
“I have already recommended the Heriot Bay Inn to several friends. This is in large part because of the amazing people who work there. I observed and felt that the employees come together as a great team and support each other. Your guests experience this support and sincere care in their interactions with you. This is enviable and worth celebrating.”
