Event Information
Description
Lie down and Listen is a unique classical music concert experience launching in London this September designed to benefit well-being. A pioneering combination of music, meditation and restorative yoga led by Will Wheeler create a deep sense of relaxation. Lie down and Listen is created to restore, move and enlighten guests and proven to enhance creativity and wellbeing.
Attendees will be welcomed with a group mediation then bathed in piano music and immersed in surround sound choral music whilst exploring restorative laying down postures and absorbing the atmosphere of the stunning venue.
"I felt like I had just woken up from a really good sleep" Gemma Saunders - concert attendee.
Lie down and Listen is the brain child of pianist Christina McMaster who is on a mission to bring the positive effects of classical music on body and mind to a wide audience in unusually relaxed settings.
With massive thanks to Lululemon UK, Rude Health, St Germain Drinks, Mother of Pearl and the Cultural Institute at Kings College London for their support.

FAQs
Is it a concert or a yoga class?
It’s both! And you don’t need experience of either. It’s the same incredible music performed by world class musicians, but with a much freer flowing setting, so you create your own individual listening and feeling experience. Lying down calms the nervous system supporting this and as one concert goer commented to “allow the music to move its way through you. Gentle meditation, breathing and restorative yoga will be guided by Will.
