July 11th – Farzana Ali at Harrogate International Festival

Big ideas in intimate spaces

In a world dominated by other people’s opinions, Salon gives you the knowledge to form your own.

Three expert speakers deliver TED-style talks designed to challenge perceptions and change your life for the better. Showcasing the most stimulating ideas in arts, science, and history, each scintillating speaker has the challenge of engaging their audience within a 25-minute set, interspersed with intervals where you can chat, get a signed book from the speaker, or grab a drink at the bar.

Voted number six in the ‘Top 100 Things to do in the World’ by GQ magazine, Salon is a night out that will enlighten, entertain, excite your curiosity and change your life for the better.

Resonant Voices

Reflect on the transformative power of exploration and connection with Ash Bhardwaj, Farzana Ali, and David Robson as they unravel the motivations behind travel, the restorative benefits of sound, and the science of social bonds.

‘Sound provides the perfect backdrop to help welcome an alternate, replenished way of being.’

We already use sound as a form of self-care, from self-soothing with music to immersing ourselves with the noises of nature to promote calm. Cutting through the noise, Farzana Ali, also known as The Sound Therapist, joins Berwins Salon North to dig deep into the science of sound to explain its full therapeutic and restful potential.

Farzana is a sound practitioner and leverages a 17-year career as a former lifestyle and wellness journalist, during which she tried out and tested all types of meditation and mindfulness activities and interviewed leading experts across the wellbeing field.
