Four Hearts, a local “sound medicine” collective, is offering a heart-opening. Sound Journey in conjunction with Valentine’s Day. The group uses musical instruments and ceremonial cacao to guide participants into a relaxing, meditative state which benefits physical and mental wellbeing. Experience the Four Hearts Sound Journey the Saturday after Valentine’s Day, on February 15, from 4 to 6 p.m. at the Box Factory for the Arts, 1101 Broad St. in St. Joseph. Tickets are $40. Reserve your spot at ticketstripe.com/4heartssoundyoga. Walk-ins are also welcome.The sound journey (also called a sound bath) can take people to a hypnagogic state (between wakefulness and sleep) where they can access the subconscious layers of the mind, leading to deep healing for the body and mind.  Participants can expect to be reclined on the floor; chairs are also available. Although the sound practitioners will have comfortable supplies on hand, they encourage participants to bring their own mat, blanket, or pillow to enhance their relaxation. Four Hearts Sound Journey is a delightful way to celebrate Valentine’s Day weekend with a friend or loved one – or treat yourself!

Admission: $40
