Doors open — Doors open to our Zoom session room 15 minutes before your session. Arrive early to test out your sound set up if this is your first session with us or ask us questions to assist you. Arrive on time — Otherwise, due to the immersive nature of the experience and its tight schedule, arrive on time and ideally 5 minutes before your session. It's a great way (and excuse!) to savor some quiet time to yourself before we begin. We will be audio-only the entire time (no cameras). Opening reflections — Sessions start with us welcoming you to the session, followed by a couple of minutes to connect as a group during longer sessions, and quiet, opening self-reflections via a brief, anonymous questionnaire. Sound immersion * — We start with a quick tech check which leads into a 20 - 30 minute surround sound nature experience. You'll retreat into your own space to soak up the support, relax and take care of yourself in any way you choose. There will be no direct instruction from us, but we are available in the chat box. We provide a simple visual for you to enjoy, as you wish. Closing reflections — To bookend your session, during the last couple minutes of the sound immersion, you'll reflect on how you are feeling, what you learned and how you'll take care of yourself in the coming days via a brief, anonymous questionnaire. Debriefing — We offer a 15 minute Q/A conversation during 60 minute member sessions and for 15 minutes after the 45 minute public sessions end. Our 30 minute member express sessions do not include any group debriefing. * Further details about sound immersions: Silent Meditation public sessions start with a 10 minute sound immersion, followed by 10 minutes of silence and conclude with another 10 minutes of sounds. Member express sessions offer 28 minutes of sounds. All other public and member sessions offer 30 minutes. Although oasis online is sound-focused, it is not the totality of the experience. For deaf and hard of hearing community members, we welcome you to participate in this program and are able to be a resource for your everyday wellbeing.
