Blue Lotus Ceremony in Bedford with Sound Bath & Guided Meditation, Friday 15th of August

An evening with the Blue Lotus, Sound Bath & Guided Meditation in Bedford, Friday 15th of August.

Step into the peaceful yurt at the Happy Body Project for a unique Blue Lotus ceremony, enriched with sound healing and a guided meditation. This 2-hour gathering offers a chance to unwind, restore your energy, and connect within a warm and supportive space.  

What Is a Blue Lotus Ceremony?

The Blue Lotus Ceremony is an experience that revolves around the Blue Lotus flower (Nymphaea caerulea), honoured in ancient Egyptian and other spiritual traditions. This plant is celebrated for its gentle and subtle effects that can:

• Open the heart

• Induce states of calm and clarity as it helps with stress and anxiety

• Enhance dreamwork, intuition, and meditative presence

During our ceremonies, we serve Blue Lotus tea with mindfulness and purpose, followed by a sound bath and a guided meditation aligned with the energy of the Blue Lotus, supporting a complete energetic reset.

Event Overview: Blue Lotus Ceremony & Sound Bath

This immersive 2-hour experience is designed to help participants relax, reconnect, and restore balance through three synergistic parts:

Introductions & Connect with the Blue Lotus

We start the evening with brief introductions and collective intention-setting. You’ll then be invited to enjoy a warm infusion of Blue Lotus tea, guided by ceremonial facilitator Steph Harkin. This is a time to tune inwards and receive the plant’s gentle energetic influence. Blue Lotus is valued for its power to:
✔️ Reduce stress and ease tension
✔️ Enhance creativity and intuition
✔️ Support meditation by opening the Third Eye chakra
✔️ encouraging a peaceful, centered state While sipping your tea, you’ll be invited to reflect, set intentions, and connect deeply with yourself.  

Sound Bath Session

Immerse yourself in the soothing vibrations of Tibetan and Crystal singing bowls, chimes, and other healing instruments. This sound healing session, led by Yanni, will guide you into a state of deep relaxation, allowing you to release tension and restore balance. Some of the benefits of the sound bath are:

• Reduce stress and anxiety
• Promote deep relaxation
• Improve sleep quality
• Enhance mental clarity and focus
• Balance the body’s energy centers (chakras)
• Remove energy blocs

Guided Meditation – Blue Lotus Inspired

To close the ceremony, we’ll move into a guided meditation supported by shamanic drumming. Yanni will offer the drum rhythms while Stephanie leads you through a meditation based on the five phases of the Blue Lotus. This closing ritual helps anchor your experience, restore your balance, and strengthen your inner connection.

We take you through a structured ceremonial journey that mirrors the growth phases of the Blue Lotus:

• The Sleeping Seed – stillness and development of potential
• The Awakening Root – strength and grounding
• The Rising Stem – growth and rising above challenges
• The Flowering Bud – transformation and opening to insight
• The Blooming Lotus – full awakening and enlightenment

This final practice will help you to integrate the healing vibrations from the sound bath. It will also help you to deepen your connection to your heart and intuition and help you feel centered, rebalanced, and relaxed.
