Questions, answered
New to sound healing or breathwork? Here's what to expect. For anything I haven't covered, just ask.
I've never done this before. Is that okay?+
Absolutely. Most people who come to a session are experiencing this work for the first time. Every session begins with education. I'll walk you through what we're doing, why we're doing it, what you may experience, and what to expect along the way. There's nothing you need to know beforehand and nothing to get “right.” You simply arrive as you are, get comfortable, and I'll guide you through the rest.
What actually happens at a sound bath?+
You'll get comfortable lying down (or seated, if you prefer) while I guide you into a relaxed state. From there, you'll be immersed in the sounds and vibrations of crystal singing bowls, gongs, chimes, and other instruments. The experience gives your mind and body space to slow down, helping quiet mental noise, ease physical tension, reduce feelings of stress, and support deep relaxation.
What should I bring?+
For group gatherings, everything you need to know will be included in the details for each event. If you're coming to my space for a private session, simply wear comfortable clothing you can fully relax in. Everything you need will be provided for you. You're always welcome to bring a journal if you'd like.
For virtual sessions, find a quiet, comfortable space where you can relax without interruption. Headphones are recommended when possible for a more immersive sound experience.
What's the difference between reiki, breathwork, and a sound bath?+
Sound healing uses instruments and resonance to settle your system into deep rest. Breathwork uses guided breathing to move energy and emotion and shift your state. Reiki is gentle, hands-on (or distance) energy work to clear and balance. They pair beautifully, and a 1:1 session can blend them to what you need.
Is breathwork safe for everyone?+
Breathwork is powerful and deeply relaxing, but some active techniques aren't recommended for everyone, including during pregnancy or with certain heart, blood pressure, seizure, or other medical conditions. If anything applies to you, please check with your doctor first and let me know so we can adjust. These practices support wellbeing and are not a substitute for medical or mental-health care.
Is it safe to attend a sound bath while pregnant?+
Yes! Sound baths are generally considered a gentle, non-invasive practice during pregnancy. We encourage you to listen to your body, get comfortable, and make any modifications you need. If you have a high-risk pregnancy or any medical concerns, please check with your healthcare provider before attending.
Please note: Therapeutic Breathwork is not recommended during pregnancy, but you are welcome to participate in the sound healing portion of the experience.
In person or virtual: what's the difference?+
Really, the biggest difference is your place or mine. In person, you'll experience the instruments and vibration within the room, while virtual sessions allow you to experience the work from the comfort of your own space. With headphones and a quiet place to settle in, you can still receive the benefits of the practice without leaving home.
Reiki, therapeutic breathwork, and sound sessions can all be experienced virtually or in person, so choose what feels most comfortable and accessible for you.
Can you come to my event or workplace?+
Absolutely. Private gatherings, corporate wellness experiences, retreats, and special events are some of my favorite spaces to bring this work. I'd love to hear what you're envisioning and explore how sound, breathwork, or a combination of modalities could support the experience you want to create. Every gathering is different, so we'll connect about your vision, your group, and what would feel most impactful for the space.
Do you offer gift cards?+
Yes. A sound bath or session makes a deeply nourishing gift. Reach out and I'll get one set up for you.
