Aloka — Ground Lab with Graham Slick, A Weekly Spirit Leaf Sound Ritual

About this event

### **Aloka — Ground Lab with Graham Slick** #### *A Weekly Spirit Leaf Sound Bath Reset Ritual* #### **YOUR WEEKLY RESET RITUAL** Ground Lab is the weekly reset ritual at the heart of Aloka's practice — a recurring sound bath circle where breath, vibration, and intention meet to settle the nervous system and bring you back to yourself. "Very Portland," intimate, and designed to be returned to. Not a one-off experience — a rhythm. Same circle, same hour, every Thursday. Bowls, breath, stillness. You leave lighter than you came in. New friends warmly welcomed; regulars even more so. #### **ABOUT GRAHAM** Named **Best Sound Bath Experience** by Willamette Week's *Best of Portland Readers' Poll 2025.* A lifelong musician with five years deep in the form.
