In this soundbath, Elena (she/her) will use crystal singing bowls, chimes, drums and other instruments to build a soundscape with the intention to provide a space that encourages a mindful and meditative presence for all. Sound vibrations will flow throughout the space moving different energies throughout the room to bring peace to the physical body and provide space for inner healing. There will be a full hour of sound and time to integrate and connect as a group before and after.

Wear comfortable clothes and bring water to hydrate after. If you are attending in-person, everything you need will be provided for you (mats to lie on, blankets, and eye covers). If you are joining us virtually, we recommend using headphones for the best experience.

Soundbaths are offered both in-person in Richmond VA and virtually on Zoom. We have space for a limited number of people in person and plenty of spots online! If you would like to be in person and we appear sold out, please contact us.

About Elena (she/her)

Elena Alexis is a multi-modal healing arts practitioner, mindfulness counselor and ceremonialist inspired by a natural affinity for equanimity – for herself, for the individual and the collective. She is a Reiki Master and Sound Healer. Her practice at Buffalo Firefly includes marrying Usui reiki techniques with sound healing frequencies. This intentional combination offers deepened relaxation to the body, softens the mind and rejuvenates the spirit. Her work provides energetic nourishment to stimulate cellular restoration while inviting a sense of calm to the nervous system – ultimately, assisting towards homeostasis within the body for overall well-being. Elena has dedicated the last decade of her life journey to holistic health by way of personal/transpersonal development/healing, restorative care, yogic embodiment practices, immersive circle work, self-study, mentorship, land stewardships and shamanic healing retreats. She has deeply delved into vipassana meditation, herbal medicine, Usui reiki, traditional sound healing, Kemetic yoga, Kundalini yoga, Cha Dao/the way of tea, menstrual education, matrilineal heritage and postpartum awareness.

In reverence to existence, Elena is devout to a personal responsibility of ongoingly restoring her health after surviving a near-fatal accident that ruptured her cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral spine and pelvis. Since then, rehabilitation rooted in holistic education and embodied healing practices as a way of life continues to revitalize her being. She alchemically is healing her physical and emotional health with each step forward. Her lived experience and unfathomable testimony illuminates the human capacity to heal.

Elena will gracefully guide you into a safe space of depth to prepare you for uncontrived healing alongside any clarified self-discovery before, during and after your session.

“I look forward to working with you.”
