As visitors explore the garden, they will find solace, relaxation, and a deeper connection to nature through engaging their senses of touch, smell, sound, and sight. The Sensory Garden features three beds inspired by water, wood, and sky.
Dunia is driven by a profound love for frequencies and an unwavering belief in sharing spiritual gifts with her community, utilizing her talents as a vocalist, musician, and sound healer. Her mission is to help individuals tap into their inner selves, connect with spirit, and unleash their own healing and thriving abilities. By offering intuitive sound bath sessions, captivating live performances, and inspiring art installations, Dunia fosters a sense of community and empowerment, encouraging participants to trust themselves while establishing healthy energetic boundaries.
What if we could communicate with plants through sound? What if we could hear our interactions with plants? These thought-provoking questions form the foundation of If Plants Could Hum. By merging art and science education, this program creates a safe and inclusive environment for visitors to expand their minds and explore the wonders of the natural world.
In this program, participants will embark on an immersive journey, delving into the Sensory Garden's soundscapes. Human beings are inherently electrical beings, and through the program's activities, attendees will learn how sound can be used as a means of communication with both themselves and the botanical world. By harnessing the frequencies emitted by plants and transforming them into audible hums using sound bowls, Dunia will facilitate a connection between participants and the plants.
The program begins with an engaging conversation about plants, where Dunia explains the process and equipment used to generate the plants’ sounds. Sound healing, a practice deeply intertwined with human experience, also will be discussed, illuminating its potential for communication with plants. Participants will be encouraged to interact with both plants and sound bowls, creating a harmonious group sound bath that resonates with the plants' hums. Following this hands-on experience, participants will have the opportunity to reflect on their findings, feelings, and observations, capturing their thoughts and feelings from engaging with the program.
Join Dunia in the Sensory Garden and let the plants’ hum guide you towards a deeper understanding of yourself and the world we inhabit.
