So the big surprise tonight โ€“ throat singing. I did not expect that.

Oh yeah. What did you think? No, I didnโ€™t learn it with this in mind. Originally my friend was teaching me, a very good friend of mine since childhood, about a kind of meditation thatโ€™s called โ€˜toningโ€™. Thatโ€™s basically where you inhale, and when you exhale you make a sound, and you just keep doing that over and over. What happens is you become so relaxed, eventually you get to the point where you will start to likeโ€ฆ.Here, Iโ€™ll give you a quick recording. It works with what weโ€™re doing because itโ€™s a very nice feeling vibrating from inside out. Itโ€™s a very good way to get everybody on the same frequency.
