About 10 times more diverse that their butterfly cousins\, moths are often dismissed as drab nocturnal pests. That is wrong! While some species are not brightly colored and a small minority of moths do things as caterpillars we wish they wouldn’t do\, many moths are stunningly colored and beautifully patterned.  Moths are important in most ecosystems as pollinators\, herbivores\, and food for other animals.  We will also introduce the pastime of mothing. Join for a look at these wondrously diverse\, beautiful\, important animals. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nInstructor \nJeff Babson\n\n\nJeff Babson is an all-around naturalist\, with particular interest in birds\, butterflies\, moths\, beetles and dragonflies.  \nOwner of Sky Island Tours\, an environmental education and eco-tour company\, Jeff has led birding tours for the Tucson Botanical Gardens\, Pima County Department of Natural Resources\, Parks and Recreation\, Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum\, and several birding festivals in southern Arizona (Wings over Willcox\, Southwest Wings\, Tucson Birding and Nature Festival). He lives in Vail with his wife and two children. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRefund & Cancelation Policy\nNo refund will be issued less than 15 days prior to any Community Class.

SUMMARY:Full Moon Sound Meditation
DESCRIPTION:Join TC Chicago for an evening of delicious full moon sound healing and relaxation.  The session will begin with a short meditation to ground mind and body. TC will then lead you into a state of transformative bliss by bathing you in the calming frequencies and harmonic resonance of her crystal singing vessels which are tuned to the 7 chakras. You will spend 45 minutes floating in and out of that sweet meditative state of consciousness that exists between wakefulness and sleep. Or you may just feel so relaxed that you fall asleep completely! All that exists carries a vibrational frequency. Sound Bath healing modalities realign the body’s vibration\, harmonizing your energetic field to a new space of peace.  Sound Therapy and Vibrational healing is power in a unique way. This experience has been honored throughout time for its organic\, non-electric overtone laden sound. Manifest a new reality with vibrational frequency by your side. This 60-minute session is equipped with amazing opportunities for transformational energy with different tones and frequencies. This therapy is designed to support those who desire a higher good for themselves involving venerable sound practices.  Please arrive between 7:45 and 8:00pm to get settled in. Students must pay instructor directly PRIOR to the day of the event. \n
