Taking a Tech Timeout

Melanin Queen Creative was happy to take our show on the road with our first stop being Austin for the AfroTech conference! Since there was so much information to process and so many people to meet, a tech timeout was necessary. This event was based on our self-care card activity #49 Let Your Mind Wander, which encourages taking time to quiet the noise to decompress and let your imagination run wild. 

We kicked the event off stretching to loosen up muscles. After stretching, everyone picked one of our sample intention word cards to reflect on. Then it was time to put on headphones to listen to the sound bath by MQC's own Tianna Christine. Sound baths are known to:

• Reduce stress
• Improve sleep
• Relax body and mind
• Increase physical awareness
• Increase focus
• Increase mental awareness and clarity

Following the sound bath, everyone journaled and shared thoughts that came up and what the intention word meant to them. All the words picked were somehow interconnected, and it was uplifting to hear everyone speak from the heart on how their word resonated with them. 

 

We thank everyone who joined us to take a tech timeout. You can take listen to the sound bath below!
