The Practice
An Invitation to Slow Down
My sound healing sessions aren’t about doing or performing. They’re about softening, listening and allowing yourself to be met exactly where you are.
In this space, the nervous system begins to settle, the breath naturally deepens and the body remembers how to restore itself. There’s nothing you need to figure out. You simply arrive, receive and let the sound support you.
I offer sessions throughout Sonoma County and the greater San Francisco Bay Area, including Santa Rosa, Sebastopol, Petaluma, Marin, San Francisco, and the East Bay.

What Is Sound Healing?
Sound healing is a guided experience that uses gentle sounds, breath, and relaxation to help your body slow down and reset. It’s a space where you can let go of stress, release emotions, and feel more calm, clear, and balanced.
During a session, I use instruments like crystal singing bowls, drumming, and my voice to create soothing tones and rhythms. These sounds help your body relax more deeply and allow your mind to quiet, so you can drop into a more peaceful state.
You don’t have to do anything or figure anything out. You simply lie back, listen, and receive. Many people leave feeling lighter, more grounded, and more connected to themselves.
"Chris, the sound bath was transformative. Your talent created such a peaceful, healing atmosphere that resonated with everyone."H. Wood, 2026
