Sound Bath Journey | with Tia and Scott

Step into a deeply restorative experience designed to calm your nervous system, quiet your mind, and reconnect you to yourself.

A sound bath is a meditative journey where you are “bathed” in sound waves produced by instruments such as crystal singing bowls, gong, chimes, and other resonant tones. These frequencies help guide the body into a relaxed, parasympathetic state—supporting stress release, mental clarity, and inner stillness.

The Journey

We begin by arriving—fully and intentionally. Scott Van Note will guide you through a grounding meditation that invites you out of the thinking mind and into the felt experience of your body. Through gentle somatic awareness, you’ll begin to soften, unwind, and settle into a space of safety, presence, and openness.

From this grounded place, you’ll transition into a layered soundscape led by Tia Hay. The sound unfolds gradually—waves of tone and vibration that move through the body and around you. Rather than focusing or “trying” to meditate, you’re invited to simply listen. The sounds become a steady point of return, meeting you wherever you are and guiding you deeper into stillness, spaciousness, and inner awareness.

What you may experience

No two journeys are the same. You might drift in and out of awareness, feeling as though you’re floating between waking and dreaming. The body may soften in unexpected ways, the mind may grow quiet—or active before it settles. All of it is welcome.

People often notice:

• A deep exhale—physically, mentally, or emotionally
• Subtle waves of sensation, like warmth, tingling, or gentle vibration
• Visuals, memories, or moments of clarity arising without effort
• A sense of timelessness, as if the mind has loosened its grip
• Profound rest that feels different from sleep—more spacious, more aware

Whatever your experience, there is no right or wrong way to receive it. This is a space to let go, to listen, and to allow.

• You will be lying down for the duration of the experience
