Kennedy Oneself: A Sonic Sanctuary and Sound Journey

CANCELLED: Sonic Sanctuary
A multi-instrumental Sound Healing Journey with Kennedy Oneself

Step into an immersive field of vibration—lie down, close your eyes, and journey inward.

An acoustic symphony of living sound unfolds through harps, handpans, didgeridoos, flutes, singing bowls, gongs, and rare world instruments. Each sound opens a doorway into a new inner landscape.

These carefully layered frequencies create a deeply relaxing sensory experience designed to quiet the mind and invite stillness.

Through fluid transitions and masterful layering, Kennedy’s performances often leave participants amazed, as if an unseen ensemble is performing around them. The entire space becomes filled with a richly textured sonic environment.

During the journey you may hear:

• Didgeridoos that rumble through the body
• RAV Vast handpan tones that shimmer with resonant warmth
• Guzheng (Asian harp) with cascading, dreamlike melodies
• Gongs sending powerful waves through the space
• Flutes from Chinese, Indian, American, and drone traditions
• Shruti box & tanpura creating continuous rivers of sound
• Crystal and metal singing bowls
• Tibetan bells, kalimba, ocean drum, rainstick, tubalophone, metallophone, monochord, and more

Participants simply lie down, relax, and allow the sounds to guide them into a deeply restorative meditative state.

Touring nationwide, Kennedy Oneself leads immersive sound healing concerts where audiences lie down, close their eyes, and journey inward through waves of live acoustic instruments.

For over a decade he has crafted deeply calming sonic environments using instruments such as Celtic harp, guzheng, RAV vast handpan, didgeridoo, flutes, gongs, singing bowls, monochord, and tanpura.

A meditation practitioner, instrument maker, and facilitator, Kennedy also leads retreats and training programs that help others share the power of sound for relaxation, presence, and inner stillness.

Sacred Circle Dances with Maggie Moon

Liam Holmes — Sun, 22 Nov 2026 14:30:00 -0500

A Monthly Celebration of the Gift of Movement and Dance as a Form of Prayer and Meditation and Connecting with Source and Spirit

Sacred Circle Dance is a way to be connected to Spirit through our bodies, a form of moving meditation in the community of the Circle. The dances are simple repetitive steps holding hands in a circle, set to glorious music. Maggie Moon teaches each dance gently and carefully so that each person feels at home in the dance. No partner or previous dance experience required, all genders and abilities welcome, high school and older.

The 2-hour session includes opening and closing rituals, silence after each dance, and personal sharing.

Sacred Circle Dance originated in the Findhorn Community in Scotland in the ‘70s, starting as a collection of ancient sacred dances from many communities in Eastern Europe and Russia, and now includes dances from all over the world, both ancient and modern. Each dance offers an opportunity for connecting with Spirit.

Donation based event: Suggested Donation $15, all proceeds benefit the Light Center.

Maggie Moon O’Neill has been leading Sacred Circle Dance for 30 years for groups large and small all over the country. Maggie worships with Quakers and Unitarians, and has danced in many parts of the world finding spiritual wisdom. Her most recent dance pilgrimages were to the ancient Mayan temples in Guatemala and to the Findhorn Community in Scotland, where Sacred Circle Dance began. In Greece and Egypt she danced and meditated at sacred sites, and felt a deep connection to Isis, the Great Mother in Egypt and to Demeter in Greece. Her life’s calling is to share Sacred Dance as embodied spirituality, a way for each of us to directly experience the Divine Feminine.

Join us as we journey within to the warmth and the Love and the Light that is in our hearts.
