Sound congress from 01-03 March 2024
Transform your life with sound!
in the Cityhall Gersfeld/Rhön and online
We celebrate 40 years of sound massage, 35 years of Hess Klangkonzepte/Hess Sound and 25 years of professional association “Transform your life with sound” – Be part of it!
Just as the sounds of singing bowls changed the life of the great sound pioneer Peter Hess from the core more than 40 years ago, they have also enriched the lives of millions of people around the world.
And so the exciting lectures and inspiring workshops provide practical, touching and informative insights into the power source of sound!
Because the sounds of the singing bowls carry a unique, transformative power. Like hardly any other medium, we come into contact with ourselves through sounds and vibration. They guide us into an inner space of silence, which is as soothing as it is inspiring. Here we can recognize our true needs, unfold our potential and thus find more serenity and happiness in life!
On the three days of the congress you can expect very special sound meditations from the unique concept of “sound transformation”, which makes it possible to experience the power source of sound. As a special highlight for the anniversary, an inspiring festive evening with a big party awaits you on Saturday evening!
Framed by the concert of the congenial musician Peter Gabis, atmospheric sound sessions and a diverse supporting program, this congress is sure to be an unforgettable event for all attendees!
So, join us, let’s experience the transformative power of singing bowls together and celebrate 40 years of Peter Hess® Sound Massage at the big anniversary party on Saturday night!
