Curious about the meaning of “Dub”?

What is Dub music? Dub is one of the many sub genres of Reggae music. Dub is instrumental Reggae that is artistically enhanced and layered with effects like echo and reverb as well as production techniques like splicing in snipits of vocals or sporadically dropping out all the instruments except for the powerful, stripped down drum and bass.

Dub gives the recording engineer the opportunity to become the musician as their multi-track mixing console acts as the instrument. An engineer making Dub is like a chef creating a unique meal not often seen on most menus!

Jamaican producer and engineer King Tubby is commonly known as the creator of Dub, as he first experimented with ways to manipulate and “dub out” his instrumental tracks in the early 1970s. Today, his innovation and influence is widely seen in genres like techno, drum and bass, and electronic music overall. Dub stands as another example of the rich contributions of Jamaican music.

Digestion: Ayurvedic and Yogic Approach
2024-03-30 13:00 - 16:00 | Moon Room @ Common Street Spiritual Center, 13 Common Street, Natick, 01760, United States
Ayurveda and Yoga, both stemming from ancient Vedic Philosophy, are interconnected sister sciences.
During the session, we will delve into Ayurvedic perspectives on identifying imbalances and provide practical approaches to address them, including dietary adjustments, lifestyle modifications, and herbs. Led by certified Ayurvedic Doctor Nina Fine, this segment of the workshop will offer expert guidance.
Expect an engaging mix of interactive learning and active participation, during which you will explore and practice techniques such as Pranayama (breathing techniques), asanaYoga (yoga postures targeted at various parts of the body), and Meditation, all blended to improve the mind-body-spirit balance. Certified yoga teacher Olena will guide this portion of the workshop.
Nina and Olena will elucidate the connection between chakras (energetic centers in the body) and bodily systems/organs, offering guidance on recognizing imbalances in the flow of prana (the life force energy) through the chakras and strategies to restore balance.
In essence, the workshop will encompass learning (lecture), movement, breathwork, and meditation.
