Sound Bath | Tyyni Installation

Service Description

Rooted in the yogic philosophy of being rather than doing, this sound bath invites you to gently turn inward - toward awareness, presence, and the quiet space beneath the constant movement of the mind. The calming resonance and benefits of sound healing are attributed to two key elements: the vibrations, which travel through the body's fluids massaging at the cellular level, and the sound itself, which support the brain in entering an alpha brainwave state, often associated with deep relaxation. The class is part of Tyyni installation at Öljysäiliö 468 with Spacetime. Tyyni is set among sand dunes and draws on mountain meditation, at whose core lies ever-changing weather. The installation's sandstorm and the dune's stillness serve as a metaphor for shifting emotions and thoughts: they intensify, then subside. The sandstorm shapes the dune's surface, breaking and battering it, but the dune always returns to stillness, as if nothing had ever happened. An emotional storm works the same way. Drawn from the expansive architecture of Öljysäiliö 468, the exhibition explores the effect of space on thought. It is grounded in the idea of the cathedral effect, which holds that tall, open spaces support freer, more abstract thinking. Together with Spacetime Helsinki and Mellow Agency.
