What is a Sound Bath?

A Sound Bath is a deep immersion in sound that is felt in your whole being. It can be experienced in different ways, from listening to recorded sounds to participating in group sound bath sessions.

During your sound bath experience, you will allow the soothing vibrations of singing bowls, flutes, and chimes to wash over your whole body, creating a gentle yet deeply transformative effect on your body and mind.


The foundation of sound bathing lies in the principle that everything in the universe is made up of vibrations.

Every cell, organ, and system within our bodies has its own unique vibrational frequency. When these frequencies become imbalanced, it can lead to physical, emotional, and spiritual disharmony.

Sound bathing introduces harmonious vibrations into the body, helping to restore balance and promote overall well-being.

Your sound bathing experience begins with finding a position in which you can rest comfortably. This is typically seated or laying down on a mat, blanket or cushion.

From here you will be guided through a few minutes of calming breathwork and meditation to help you prepare your mind and body for deep listening. For the rest of the session, various vibrations and frequencies will be introduced individually and in harmonious blend from crystal singing bowls, chimes, crystal pyramids, flute and voice.

By tuning in at such a deep level you allow your brainwaves to shift from active to a more relaxed and even dreamlike state. Over time, sound bathing can lead to training your mind to more easily enter this state, allowing you to attain more profound levels of consciousness and relaxation.

 FAQs

  • Be sure to wear comfortable clothing. Some spaces will provide mats, blankets, bolsters, and even eye pillows; while others will instruct you to bring your own. This is usually in the event details. If you are ever unsure, reach out to the contact person for your specific event.

  • Not at all! Lying do n is only one way to experience a sound bath. You are welcome to sit comfortably on a cushion or chair if you prefer. Many outdoor events will invite you to bring a camp chair if you want to sit up of the ground.

  • While some aspects are the same, such as the use of instruments and voice, this is not a traditional concert experience. Sound bathing is less structured than a typical orchestral performance or rock concert, allowing you to more easily focus on your own experience rather than getting caught up on a specific lyric or sequence of notes.

  • While it is a type of meditative experience, sound bathing is not the mindfulness style meditation that you typically see in the media. Where you have to sit upright and focus on your breath or a specific mantra or affirmation. In fact, many people who struggle with traditional meditation find sound bathing to be a more accessible way to enter a meditative state and receive many of the same health benefits as with a traditional meditation practice.
