A Ulsan youth networking event will include a chance to unwind with singing-bowl sound bathing and yoga. Yoga therapist and sound healer Oh Go-un will lead a sound-bath yoga session at Youthverse, part of the 2026 second Youth Members Day, taking place on 28 November in Undang Hall on the fourth floor of the Jongha Innovation Centre in Ulsan.
The event is a youth networking party where people can become a team even if they come alone. It has been organised as a time for everyone to come together through singing-bowl sound healing, yoga stretches and a healing break for themselves. The poster also features the logos of Ulsan Metropolitan City and the Ulsan Youth Support Centre.
Why do young people need time set aside to rest?
The programme highlights stress arising from job hunting and working life, as well as the fatigue young people feel in social relationships and communication. The need for self-care amid busy lives, and the experience of stepping away from routines centred on competition and achievement, are also cited as reasons to make time for rest.
What will the singing-bowl vibrations and yoga involve?
Participants will experience a sound bath featuring the deep resonance of singing bowls, alongside gentle yoga stretches to release tension in the body. The programme will also include a healing break from the stresses of daily life and time for self-care and inward focus. The organisers described it as “a time to find inner peace through the sound of the Earth”.
An instructor on time when nothing needs to be proved
Oh Go-un runs wellness programmes combining yoga and sound therapy, drawing on her interest in the relationship between stress and the body. She has worked with people of different ages through yoga for cancer patients and stress-management programmes, as well as community meditation and sound-bath sessions.
“These days, we are used to fast and intense stimulation in everything,” Oh said. “The satisfaction it brings can be fleeting, and we need time to recover just as much.”
Explaining the programme, she said: “Sound baths, breathing and gentle yoga movements can help reduce tension in the body and encourage a relaxation response associated with activation of the parasympathetic nervous system.”
She added: “I believe genuine rest makes people a little more relaxed and flexible. I want to give young people the experience of rest in which they do not have to prove anything or do anything well, and can simply be themselves.”
