Immersive Sound Journey with Dustin Wells

Sunday · 2 PM – 4 PM

Program Room · Telluride · ≈ < 1 mi

FREEAll agesSports

An immersive sound journey is a live musical experience you take lying down. Musician and sound ceremony artist Dustin Wells surrounds the room with sacred instruments — gongs, shamanic drums, singing bowls, crystal bowls, wind chimes — woven live with synths, guitar, and voice into a single two-hour soundscape. The journey moves through a deliberate arc, from settling in to full sound to a quiet return, designed to guide the nervous system out of fight-or-flight and into the state where the body does its own healing. Come as you are; leave with what you came for. · Please arrive 30 minutes early to find your spot and get comfortable. · Suggested: bring what makes the floor feel like home — a yoga mat, pillow, blanket, or eye mask. Guests lie down if there's room, or sit as needed. · All ages welcome, assuming guests can sit quietly for the entire two-hour ceremony. · This is a listening-room atmosphere — once the journey begins, please plan to stay through the end so the room remains undisturbed for everyone.
