✨Chant x Sound = Whole Body Vibrations

Our very first Chant Circle at Shine happened this past week and… OMG! wow. Just wow.

The response in the room was overwhelming.

This experience is a three-layer vibrational journey designed to awaken the entire body:

Chanting → Healing Drum Wash → Sound Bath

Imagine 45 minutes of powerful guided chanting, followed by a healing drum wash while Shine healers move through the space, and closing with a deep sound bath hosted by the Queen herself, Auburn, using crystal bowls, Koshi chimes, and ocean drums.

All held in our signature luxe Shine setting — atmospheric lighting, yoga beds, meditation chairs, and multiple Shine healers supporting the experience for a truly premium evening.

Because the first one was so powerful, we’ve added three new dates to the calendar: 3/31, 5/13, 6/16


If you love chanting, sound baths, or powerful group energy experiences, this one is truly something special.

A Note from Cortney
Sometimes I imagine that we walk through life pulling hundreds—maybe even thousands—of suitcases behind us. Each one filled with old emotions, triggers, worries, and stories we’ve been carrying for years.

Then something interesting happens when we step into experiences like chanting, drum circle, theta breath, or deep relaxation. Little by little, we begin setting those suitcases down. One at a time. Until suddenly we feel lighter, clearer, and more like ourselves again.

This week I had the opportunity to be interviewed by the producers of The Telepathy Tapes podcast about intuition, energy healing, and the field. What struck me most during that conversation was realizing how rare communities like this truly are. The practices we explore at Shine—learning to listen inward, release old energy, and reconnect with the deeper intelligence within us—are becoming part of a much larger global conversation about human potential.

And the truth is… this community is part of that movement.

You are not just attending experiences here. You are part of a community helping to shape the future of how people understand healing, intuition, and consciousness.

If you’ve been feeling the weight of a few extra suitcases lately, join me for Theta Breath on March 25 at 6:00 PM. In this experience, I’ll guide you through intentional breathwork designed to access the theta brainwave state.

It’s often in these deeper states of awareness that we can release old emotional patterns and reconnect with something deeper within ourselves.

💚xo,
Cortney

Feeling a Shift Lately?

Many people reach a moment in their lives when something begins to shift.

The way they’ve been moving through the world starts to feel different — and they begin to sense there may be something more waiting to be explored.

If you’ve been curious about what lies deeper within yoga — even wondering whether Yoga Teacher Training might be part of your path — this workshop was created for that moment.

Yoga as a Threshold is a two-hour immersive experience centered around Pratyahara, the yogic practice of turning awareness inward.
Through slow movement, yin practice, Reiki, deep rest, meditation, and Yoga Nidra, you’ll be guided from outer awareness toward a quieter, more internal space.

This is not an information session about Yoga Teacher Training.
Instead, it’s an opportunity to experience the depth of practice that often leads people there.

Some participants simply come for the rest.
Others discover they’re standing at the beginning of a deeper path. A threshold.

📍 Shine – 5190 Cline Rd Kent, Ohio
📅 April 1 at 6-8pm
⏳ 2-hour immersive experience
✨ Small group to keep the experience quiet and immersive
