About the Group Meditation featured at SPECTRUM:
Meditation on Twin Hearts is a service based guided group meditation for planetary peace. The meditation activates the twin hearts, the physical heart in the chest, and the spiritual heart on the crown. We then collectively bless the planet and in turn, receive those blessings since we're living here! Most people leave the meditation feeling calm, aligned, centered, inspired and at peace. Meditating in a group makes the experience even more powerful as the more people practicing ogether, the more expansive the energy. Starting this event with the meditation helps create a beautiful container for healing, connection and self exploration + expression.
About the Dream Blessings & Activations via Dreamweavers’ Disco:
At this event there will be an altar space for everyone to spend time with as they choose. It is a place for stillness, exploration, play, and dreaming. There are crystals, meditation cards, oracle decks, lights and more, to pick up, touch, utilize in whatever way calls to you.
"Our favorite piece on the altar is the dream box. This is present at every Dreamweavers’ Disco to collect each and every one of your dreams. At the altar you have the opportunity to write down your dreams, place them in the altar box, and allow us to carry them to the next city to be blessed by the next group of Dreamweavers. At the start of our Dreamweavers’ Disco, we will take a moment during the meditation to bless the dreams of those that dreamed and danced with us at the previous event in. Then, your dreams will be blessed at the next event."
With this practice, together, we are weaving a collective web of dreams and blessings. We are all connected, we are all one. When one of our dreams becomes a reality, all of our dreams come true.
About the Heart Song Healing Sound Bath:
A heart song is exactly as it sounds, the song of our heart. With this being a community gathering, this will be the collective heart song of the group. You will be bathed in vocal tones and harmonies, as you relax into a safe space of receptivity and openness. This heart song is programmed to cleanse and remove any and all obstacles standing between us and our dreams. We will take a moment to bless our dreams, the dreams of others in the circle, bless the planet, and all living beings.
About the Dreamweaver's Disco & its Co-Founders — SurprisinglySimple:
"The Dreamweavers’ Disco was born out of our desire to heal the self, others and the planet through music, movement, meditation, conscious connection, & community building. As SurprisinglySimple we share our music and light show, but we knew there was more to it. The Twin Hearts Meditation & Pranic Healing is imbued into the music and art we create and share. These tools, techniques and practices have played vital roles in our growth and transformation as well as creating the life of our dreams. We wanted to share all of this with communities all over, and so the Dreamweavers’ Disco emerged. We all have the power to make our dreams a reality, and this power is only magnified when shared and woven with community. At the Dreamweavers’ Disco you are invited to share your dreams with the community, through your thoughts, your movement & dance, vocally with each other or in the opening/closing circle, and in writing at the altar."
SurprisinglySimple ignites worlds of possibilities within your soul through their powerful and intentional sacred bass dance journeys. A delight for the senses, their expression not only tickles your ears, but moves your feet, allowing you to swim in the deep and healing frequencies of bass music. Their out of this world laser/light show is meticulously programmed and intended to ignite even more of our senses. Moving through the many different rhythms and energies of music, their creative tapestry weaves a story of internal transformation. This internal transformation is the foundation for external, global evolution. Hailing from Atlanta, GA and Denver, CO, this duo has traveled the country and the world sharing their art, heart, meditations and music for over 10 years.
Comprised of Singer/Songwriter Rachel Blum and Producer/Laserist Anthony Blum, the foundation of SurprisinglySimple is in the love the two have for eachother.

You can feel it in everything they do. Life is SurprisinglySimple when you follow your heart.
