In this episode of "Echoes of Alchemy with Lotus Sound," hosts Jay and Justine welcome a very special guest, Stacey Bliss, PhD, an esteemed educator, researcher, and improviser.

As a guest scholar at the Humanities Research Institute at the University of Regina and a recipient of the SSHRC Insight Development Grant, Stacey has delved deep into the world of gong practices across Canadian provinces.
Stacey shares her experiences from a transformative journey across Canada in 2023, documenting the use of sound in various communities for wellbeing. From Halifax to Collingwood, and from Saskatchewan to Sylvan Lake, Stacey's research explores how sound practitioners are integrating gongs into their local communities to foster healing and connection. She discusses the significance of these practices, the socio-cultural implications, and the profound connections formed with the land and its people. Tune in to discover the powerful intersection of sound, education, and community wellness, and learn about Stacey's personal journey into the world of gong through her immersive research and heartfelt experiences.
