The Spring Equinox — which in 2026 falls on Friday, March 20th — is one of only two moments in the entire year when day and night are almost exactly equal in length. As humans, we are truly meant to be cyclical animals that follow the rhythm of nature. After a long, cold and testing season, this is the single day is where light and darkness hold each other in perfect tension. We begin to find a renewed sense of energy, shifting from a state of hibernation that comes with Winter. Your body literally wakes up with the earth and after this point, the balance tips. The days grow longer. The light wins.

Celebrate nature’s return to richness and welcome the growth that comes with Spring with a Soundscape guided by Rebecca Manankil, a Multidisciplinary Healer based in unceeded territories of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabek, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples. As a Movement instructor and Metaphysical guide, she specializes in Corporate Wellness, Brand Activations, Sound Healing Trainings, Group classes & Workshops and 1:1 sessions.

Rebecca has been serving the community through Movement and Mindfulness since 2019. Some of her esteemed clients include: The Government of Canada, The Toronto Raptors, SunLife Financial, Oxford Properties, WeWork, William Olsen Health Systems, Lululemon Ontario Non-Profit Housing Association, Algoma University and Porter Airlines.

This Soundscape is a mindfulness experience where attendees are gently immersed in sound waves, inviting them to escape the external noise of the outside world and journey inwards to find deep peace and deep presence. It can be compared to a guided meditation experience to promote introspection through pause. The ambient sound waves are produced by various sources, including healing instruments such as singing bowls, percussion, chimes, rattles, tuning forks, and the human voice itself.

Soundscapes allow attendees the space to unwind and relax through auditory stimulation. Sound is a very powerful and effective means of changing brain state, improving mood and regulating emotions. In honour of the Spring Equinox, this soundscape will hold intentions of new beginnings, new blessings and new bliss to be deeply present in the coming season.

Adding on a layer of deep resonance to the Soundscape offering, is the opportunity to experience the Lotus Gong - a traditional Eastern instrument that creates an incredible reverberating sound and resonance. The gong’s sound specifically works to stimulate the vagus nerve which, as a result, helps reduce stress hormones & regulate your parasympathetic system. The low rumbling vibrations produced by the gong have an immediate impact on brain activity & the vagus nerve, the regulating portion of the body’s nervous system, because of the ears’ proximity to that area; signaling for the heart rate to slow & breath to deepen, creating a deep sense of safety & peace. The presence of the gong offers a unique and memorable experience for those who are immersed in the power of its sound vibrations.

This soundscape features Rebecca’s Crystal Tones® Alchemy Crystal Singing Bowls® set, which was intuitively curated for her through an extensive selection process, with no set like it existing in the world. This collection of healing instruments are unique not only to her practice, but to Rebecca as an individual. Unlike the more widely seen conventional frosted white crystal singing bowls, that are often glass filled & manufactured in unethical conditions, Crystal Tones® Alchemy Crystal Singing Bowls® consist of 99.995% pure crystal quartz structure infused with other precious gemstones, metals, and minerals; these incredible pieces are artisan made in the USA, with no two bowls being alike.

Get ready to shed the stagnation and stillness of Winter and emerge into Spring refreshed and ready to let the light in.
