In response to the needs of our community, I’m continuing to offer FREE/by donation women’s support and healing circles.
These gatherings are a gift to those who need a space to release, transform, and find support without financial barriers.
These circles are designed as safe, supportive spaces for those feeling the weight of recent events, struggling to process, or simply needing extra support to reclaim a sense of calm, strength, and clarity.
This is a place to release and transform the emotions you may be carrying—anger, grief, overwhelm, fear, and more—within a compassionate, sacred space.
While this offering is free, donations are deeply valued as an expression of reciprocity. Reciprocity is the act of giving back to honor the energy, time, and resources shared in holding these spaces. It helps us continue to create accessible healing spaces, support the facilitators, and cover expenses. Even a small contribution allows this support to reach more people.
Tentative Circle Flow (subject to change to meet the group’s needs):
Welcome & Space Introduction
Opening Prayer & Calling in the Four Directions
Setting Intentions & Inviting the Wisdom of Healed Ancestors
Opening Shares
Tuning into Body Wisdom and Needs
Experiential Exercises

Wednesdays at 7:30pm(EST) on Zoom
Please share this invitation with those who may benefit. Let’s come together in support, healing, and empowerment

Tibetan Singing Bowls have been used by Tibetan monks for centuries for healing and meditation purposes. These bowls create a range of sounds to restore the normal vibratory frequencies of diseased and out-of-harmony parts of the body, mind, and soul.
Gongs have also been used for thousands of years for meditative and healing purposes as well. The incorporation of the use of a gong, brings an additional therapeutic aspect as one is “bathed” in the sound waves vibrating from the gong to help manage a broad range of health conditions.
Understanding the fundamental truth that all forms of matter – including our body’s cells – vibrate at different frequencies, these “baths” help restore the body to its optimum state of homeostasis.
Join us for an evening of healing and relaxation and discover the power of simple Meditation with the vibratory sounds of the gong and the Tibetan Singing Bowls. Stimulate a profound relaxation response that bypasses the brain and targets the cellular tissues directly inviting powerful positive quantum shifts in your body, mind, spirit, and life.

Google Review: “I attended Laura’s Tibetan Bowl Meditation for the first time in January. I was interested in expanding my spirituality and finding out more about myself. The mediation was wonderful and Laura brings you deep. I felt lighter and have since gone to her for 1:1 sessions. She knows how to help you heal”

‘Life Alive – Drum Circle’ will celebrate expressing Spirit through the human body with the Universal language that is music and movement. We will open and close the drum circle with a guided meditation which will include sage, unison drumming, and toning to center and align our energies. In between will be a freestyle drum circle. Anyone can start a rhythm, the group will improvise around that rhythm until it naturally concludes, and then a new rhythm can arise. All skill levels are welcome, this drum circle is open to total beginners and experienced drummers alike. It is also not just open to drummers! Dancers! During the freestyle portion, being conscious of the space you are in and those around you, feel free to get up and move! Shake, dance, stretch, flow… feel free to move to the rhythm and express through your movement.
The first ‘Life Alive’ was held on 1/26/24.
’Life Alive’ will continue to be held every fourth Friday of each month. Please arrive a little before 7:00 if possible to get settled in for our opening meditation.
There will be a limited number of drums and percussion items available for borrowing at the circle, but if you have an instrument, please bring yours. There will not be enough for everyone who attends to borrow something.
with Registration: $15
Walkins: $25 if NOT sold out.
Jason A. Karol needs music just as much as food and water. Okay, maybe not just as much but, music has been a prominent part of Jason’s path since day one. Jason’s father is a musician, guitar is his main instrument, and he instilled a love of music in Jason right out of the gate. Through private lessons and school growing up, plus a healthy dose of trial and error self-teaching (then and now), Jason has become proficient in a wide range of musical instruments, disciplines, and styles. Jason loves sharing his passion for music and wants to encourage and inspire people to expand their love of music through his creation and facilitation.
Jason has taught drum lessons for over 15 years. He taught for 8 years at the Holliston School for the Performing Arts in Holliston, MA. He worked as a Senior Store Associate and Lesson Program Coordinator at the Music & Arts store in Newton Centre, MA for 4 years. He currently teaches private lessons in students’ homes. Part of different projects over the years, he currently performs as part of Drum Nomads, Electric Nomads, 52:db, and he created/facilitates the ‘Divine Design – Ecstatic Dance & Sound Bath’ event series at the Common Street Spiritual Center in Natick, MA. He assists the wonderful DJ Tara Ma with putting on her recurring ecstatic dance event in Lincoln, RI. He also has a passion for and experience with audio/video recording, engineering, editing, and production as well as musical instrument construction, maintenance, and modification.
In addition to music, some of Jason’s interests are: connecting with people and listening to their stories, philosophical conversations, learning about existence/the cosmos/The Universe, film, writing (fiction/non-fiction/poetry), hiking/biking/kayaking, yoga/Tai Chi, various and ever-evolving spiritual practices/disciplines (ask if you want to know more), acting in theater productions… oh yes, and most importantly, endeavouring to give cats the best ear massages ever! Jason would like to thank his cat companion Morgan for all the practice over the years.

Step into a season of renewal and transformation in this rejuvenating workshop designed to connect you to the cyclical energy of Spring, the healing wisdom of the Year of the Snake, and the balancing power of your chakras. Spring is a time of growth, fresh beginnings, and shedding what no longer serves us—and so is the Snake’s energy. As we move through this season of rebirth, we’ll explore practices that honor both the Earth’s cycles and our personal journeys of healing.
In this immersive workshop, you’ll experience:
Spring-Inspired Yoga Flow: A heart-opening, grounding yoga practice that taps into the energy of new beginnings, while focusing on the root, sacral, and heart chakras to encourage balance, vitality, and emotional release.
Sound Healing for Chakra Alignment: Let the frequencies of crystal singing bowls, gongs, and healing chimes resonate through your body. This will cleanse and activate each chakra, fostering a deep sense of harmony and inner peace.
Therapeutic Touch & Energy Work: Reconnect with your body through gentle touch techniques, such as Reiki, acupressure, and chakra balancing, to release stagnation and invite fresh energy into your system.
Year of the Snake Wisdom: Tap into the transformative power of the Snake—shedding old layers and embracing personal growth, renewal, and adaptability, both physically and energetically. The snake teaches us how to navigate life’s changes gracefully.
Spring Cleansing Ritual: A guided meditation and ritual to let go of the old and invite in the vibrant energy of Spring, promoting a fresh start for your mind, body, and spirit.
This workshop is a holistic experience, designed to deepen your connection with yourself and nature’s cycles. Whether you’re looking for physical rejuvenation, emotional healing, or spiritual alignment, this session will leave you feeling empowered and balanced, ready to blossom in the year ahead.
