Toning is a New Age practice of making group sounds in an attempt to connect with spiritual realities. An article in the Dallas Morning News, for March 10 describes the activity of Jackie Gibbons, who teaches toning classes in Texas. Her classes are held in Unitarian Universalist churches. Thankfully, we don't have to try to enter into holiness through group toning sessions.
