Dee has been teaching these sessions for eight years, was the first to offer this style of teaching in North America and is the author of the new book Ganja Yoga. She offers slow yoga classes, designed for any body and any level of experience with yoga or cannabis.\n\n### iRest® Yoga Nidra Meditation with Jaene Leonard\n\n![](https://hellomd-production.s3.amazonaws.com/articles/596002c4756dcd0ac7daad67/embedded_images/596002c7756dcd0ac7daad6a/Screen_Shot_2017-07-07_at_2.44.59_PM.png)\nJaene Leonard teaches Nidra Meditation to veterans\n\nNidra in Sanskrit means 'sleep.' iRest is a guided body-sensing you will receive in a comfortable position -- seated or lying down -- designed to release stress and heal tension stored in the body. iRest is deliciously relaxing and deeply restorative, helping you to reconnect to an underlying quality of being that is always with you throughout life's challenges and changes. Jaene became a 200-level certified yoga instructor ten years ago and a Level II iRest teacher in 2013, and has been leading iRest classes and private sessions in and out of the cannabis space ever since. She delivered iRest for three years at Harborside Health Center as part of pilot wellness program Harborside Heroes and, for the past year, with its extension, OperationEVAC -- an ongoing, expanding program now in four dispensaries in the Bay Area.\n\n### Sound Bathing with Rachel Dugas\n\n![](https://hellomd-production.s3.amazonaws.com/articles/596002c4756dcd0ac7daad67/embedded_images/59693f454972bd000cdbbf58/Screen_Shot_2017-07-14_at_3.01.26_PM.png)\nRachel Dugas leads immersive sounds bath experiences to wide audiences\n\n\"I use sounds to soothe your soul.  Sound and music are powerful healing tools because the vibrations reach us on a deeper level, releasing us from stress and clearing emotional blocks.  As a sound healing practitioner, I hold the space for healing through vocal meditation, mantras, crystal singing bowls, tuning forks, and meditative music.  As a cannabis educator, I empower medical cannabis patients to own their healing process, and guide their healing journey through music, dance, and plants.\"  Rachel has studied music for over twenty years and has a certificate in Sound, Voice & Music in the Healing Arts from the California Institute of Integral Studies.","image":{"childImageSharp":{"fluid":{"base64":"data:image/jpeg;base64,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","aspectRatio":1.342281879194631,"src":"/static/131ad29829b955c3676b10d46f032008/14b42/5cc6249fe2358364dda1e09c538816bb.jpg","srcSet":"/static/131ad29829b955c3676b10d46f032008/f836f/5cc6249fe2358364dda1e09c538816bb.jpg 200w,\n/static/131ad29829b955c3676b10d46f032008/2244e/5cc6249fe2358364dda1e09c538816bb.jpg 400w,\n/static/131ad29829b955c3676b10d46f032008/14b42/5cc6249fe2358364dda1e09c538816bb.jpg 800w,\n/static/131ad29829b955c3676b10d46f032008/47498/5cc6249fe2358364dda1e09c538816bb.jpg 1200w,\n/static/131ad29829b955c3676b10d46f032008/1df4d/5cc6249fe2358364dda1e09c538816bb.jpg 1370w","srcWebp":"/static/131ad29829b955c3676b10d46f032008/58556/5cc6249fe2358364dda1e09c538816bb.webp","srcSetWebp":"/static/131ad29829b955c3676b10d46f032008/61e93/5cc6249fe2358364dda1e09c538816bb.webp 200w,\n/static/131ad29829b955c3676b10d46f032008/1f5c5/5cc6249fe2358364dda1e09c538816bb.webp 400w,\n/static/131ad29829b955c3676b10d46f032008/58556/5cc6249fe2358364dda1e09c538816bb.webp 800w,\n/static/131ad29829b955c3676b10d46f032008/99238/5cc6249fe2358364dda1e09c538816bb.webp 1200w,\n/static/131ad29829b955c3676b10d46f032008/e7d03/5cc6249fe2358364dda1e09c538816bb.webp 1370w","sizes":"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px"}}}}},{"node":{"id":"Article_2171-markdown","title":"Try an Immersive Sound Bath & Hike in Muir Woods with Cannabis ","slug":"try-an-immersive-sound-bath-and-hike-in-muir-woods-with-cannabis","content":"Recently, I was invited to a cannabis consumption event hosted by [Dosist](https://www.hellomd.com/brands/57d844ad2174ba10009ff73f/dosist) which included a hike and an immersive sound bath in Muir Woods. If you are not familiar, Muir Woods is the iconic state park full of redwoods, set aside by the nature conservationist John Muir, and is located in Marin County, CA. Even better, it’s on my back doorstep. \n\n![new vape pens by Dosist](https://hellomd-production.s3.amazonaws.com/articles/5957ff3239eef14886bf09ba/embedded_images/5957ff3539eef14886bf09bb/Screen_Shot_2017-07-01_at_12.47.42_PM.png) \n_The new formula dose pens by Dosist_\n\nAs the fog cleared, the Sunday afternoon event started with a long hike into the redwoods, which sadly I missed due to my  jet lag after a 24-hour journey home from a family holiday in Europe. After shaking off my grogginess, I ended up meeting the group of hikers upon their return at a Muir Woods clubhouse, seemingly perched on top of the world. Dosist graciously offered refreshments, lunch and an assortment of their formulated dose pens for people to consume prior to the sound bath.\n\nFOLLOW US ON [FACEBOOK](https://www.facebook.com/pg/hellomdcompany/posts/) & [INSTAGRAM](https://www.instagram.com/hellomd_com/?hl=en)\n\n![Sound bath led by Danny Goldberg](https://hellomd-production.s3.amazonaws.com/articles/5957ff3239eef14886bf09ba/embedded_images/5957ff3739eef14886bf09bc/Screen_Shot_2017-07-01_at_12.49.44_PM.png) \n_Danny Goldberg led the sound bath. Photo by Dosist_\n\nThis past year, Dosist (formerly called HMBLDT) won [Time Innovation Design of the Year](http://time.com/4572079/best-inventions-2016/) for their dose pens which include formulations bliss, calm, sleep, relief and now arouse and passion.\n\nAccording to the company, \"We developed innovative technology to create the dosist dose pen, ensuring that it delivers over 200 precise doses, guaranteed.\" I noticed that overwhelmingly, people seemed drawn to the [Dosist calm pen](https://www.hellomd.com/products/58068e8323698800071d25a7/calm), which also happens to be my favorite. \n\n![Singing bowls as part of the sound bath](https://hellomd-production.s3.amazonaws.com/articles/5957ff3239eef14886bf09ba/embedded_images/5957ff3a39eef14886bf09bd/Screen_Shot_2017-07-01_at_12.49.35_PM.png) \n_Singing bowls beneath the gongs. Photo by Dosist_\n\nThe sound bath, a practice of sound therapy, a trend on the rise throughout California, was led by [Danny Goldberg](http://www.dannygoldberg.org/DannyGoldberg.org/Sound_Therapy.html). Danny has been doing sound immersion for Stanford University’s Health Improvement Program as well as many yoga, wellness & spiritual centers throughout the SF Bay Area and Santa Cruz.\n\nDanny explains, “The physiological impact of sound on the body, emotions & cognition is apparent. Through the vibrations of these instruments we experience an inner calm & deep relaxation that enables us to journey within & center.” His sound immersive experience included large gongs and singing bowls.\n\n![Dosist team members](https://hellomd-production.s3.amazonaws.com/articles/5957ff3239eef14886bf09ba/embedded_images/5957ff3c39eef14886bf09be/Screen_Shot_2017-07-01_at_12.48.05_PM.png)\n_Ryan and Brittnie of Dosist_\n\nAfter a period of socializing and trying various Dosist products, people were asked to settle onto yoga mats with their heads facing towards the center of the room. Laying down on our mats with plush pillows, Danny started a group meditation through the use of sound immersion that reverberated through every inch the body. At one point he placed a metal singing bowl upon my chest and the sound vibrated to my fingertips. \n\nAfter an hour of this incredible journey I felt both relaxed but also mentally alert. The cannabis sound bathing experience was a first for me and the pairing seemed so natural and obvious.\n\nDosist’s event coordinator Brittnie says, “We're regularly hosting events such as these throughout California to raise awareness of dosist and to give patients unique experiences, such as a sound bath.”\n\n![Hiking before the Dosist sound bath](https://hellomd-production.s3.amazonaws.com/articles/5957ff3239eef14886bf09ba/embedded_images/5958009839eef14886bf09c7/Screen_Shot_2017-07-01_at_12.49.19_PM.png) \n_Hikers socializing pre sound bath.
