Sound: “I’m Picking Up Good Vibrations” – Tibetan Singing Bowls
When can sound lift your mood or bring calm to a stressful day?
In this immersive sound healing session, Selena Chan, DO and Ganiv Kahlon, BSN, RN guide participants through breath-centered listening and the vibrational tones of Tibetan singing bowls. Drawing from Tibetan and South Asian healing traditions, this session explores how sound regulates the nervous system, supports emotional balance, and connects us to energy centers in the body. Participants will leave with a sound-based practice to support self-awareness and grounding—plus the chance to take home a singing bowl of their own.
Rooted in 8 Senses: Connecting to AANHPI Wisdom Traditions. This event is part of Rooted in 8 Senses, an experiential series co-created by clinicians, faculty, and trainees from the UCSF Osher Center for Integrative Health. The series explores time-honored healing traditions rooted in whole-person, collective, and relational well-being. Beyond the individual experience of sight, smell, sound, taste, and touch, many Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) healing traditions recognize three additional senses—balance, resourcefulness, and wholeness. These senses expand how we engage with the world: through community, in connection with nature, and within ecosystems of interdependence and care.
