Join Tessa Ann for this Winter Solstice Sound Spa Retreat. The Winter Solstice is a time of hope and warmth when we begin to welcome in the light.

Immerse yourself in the magical energy of Mount Stewart’s Temple of the Winds as Tessa delivers a beautiful Sound Spa Experience.

The Temple of the Winds is a stunning neo-classical building located in Mount Stewart's historic demesne, boasting breath-taking views of Strangford Lough.

What happens during this Sound Spa Experience?

Tessa Ann will play a range of therapeutic sound instruments including Tibetan and crystal singing bowls for deep relaxation, the drum for grounding, percussion instruments such as shakers and rain sticks to waken up the body at the end of the session. She will introduce you to the effects that different sounds may have on the body during a sound-based relaxation experience.

In a group session, each person will have their own individual experience of the sounds. For some this is felt physically, for others it works on an emotional or mental level.

After a Sound Spa Experience individuals often describe feeling bathed in sound.

All that is expected from you, is that you come along to relax and enjoy what the experience holds for you. Light Refreshments will be provided in the Temple of the Winds.

Mats, pillows and blankets will be provided, but you are also welcome to bring your own for extra comfort. Please wear warm and comfortable clothing.

Light refreshments will be provided.
