Rest and Sound

We are two friends — Davina and Elizabete — putting our skills and passion together to create a very special offering: a gentle yoga session combined with a live vocal sound bath. We call it “Rest and Sound”.

Our mission is to offer a practice that helps people reconnect with themselves through releasing layers of physical, mental and emotional tension.

Davina uses her knowledge of movement and breath to bring awareness back into the body, give it loving attention and softly unlock what may have been held onto.
Elizabete shares her gift of using the voice as an instrument to create an intuitive vocal sound bath that helps the mind settle and resonates through the body, gently touching the inner frequencies.

In each session, we create a space where everyone is welcome to come as they are and is invited to experience what they need. This practice is created to lessen effort and tap into the ease that allows us to simply be with ourselves — exactly as we are in that moment. Sometimes it can be easy, sometimes less so, but meeting ourselves and taking a rest from our daily efforts is what most of us are lacking in today’s hustle and bustle.

OUR STORY

We were introduced by a dear mutual friend sometime in 2024.
Davina was finishing her yoga teacher training and looking for volunteers for her thesis research. Elizabete was drifting in the soup of life and looking for support and guidance — preferably through somatic practice.
What started as three sessions for Davina’s thesis turned into more than a year of weekly yoga therapy practice. For Elizabete, it became a pivotal experience that helped her return to music. For Davina, it was an encouraging confirmation that she is living her purpose.

Now, two years later, we are combining what feels most valuable to us and offering a practice that can support others in their life adventure.
