Private Sessions
& Coaching
If you’re interested in some deep restoration or immersive learning in a single session, treat yourself to a 1:1 private! You can choose to include:
SOUND: Therapeutic sound healing utilizing the rich, transcendent tones of premium quality Crystal Tones alchemy singing bowls, with other supporting instruments when appropriate. Each Crystal Tones bowl is handcrafted by a master artisan and has an entirely unique “voice.” The bowls will play just for you, and some bowls may be placed on your body, if we are doing an in-person session and if you feel comfortable, to allow for deeper connection to the sound vibrations.
MOVEMENT: Taiji quan, qigong, dance, yoga or intuitive movement are tools to connect the different layers of our beings back to ourselves and our environment.
BREATH: Guided breathwork leverages the breath’s role as the link between conscious and unconscious, allowing us to drop into states of mind that we don’t usually access
Whether you are just looking for a general physical, mental and emotional reset, or you are hoping to address a specific issue, each session is tailored to you.
$165/hr for private MOVEMENT and/or BREATH sessions, $225/hr for SOUND for 1 person.

Sound Therapy FAQs
How should I dress? Do I need to bring anything?
Choose clothing that is comfortable and loose enough not to restrict any circulation in the body. You may find that having an extra layer or two is helpful for adjusting temperature, and don’t forget cozy socks if your feet tend to get cold. If your session is happening in one of the prepared spaces, you are welcome to bring a yoga mat, blanket and any props you feel might be helpful in helping your body lay comfortably. Don’t worry if you don’t have these things, just let me know so I can prepare them for you. Having a bottle of water is also suggested to aid your body in recalibrating and recirculating during and after treatment.
What if I'm not good at meditating or am new to sound therapy?
Sound therapy requires no previous experience and is a great learning tool for calming the racing thoughts in your mind and encouraging your body to relax on command. Sometimes it's hard to control the mind with the mind, which is why the physical sensory stimuli of a sound bath can be helpful in reaching a relaxed state. I believe we’re trained all through life to spring into action and be active on command, but we don’t practice enough conscious and intentional relaxation. Sound therapy is a perfect way to make relaxation a regular part of your wellness routine.
What are the benefits of a sound therapy?
Some of the most commonly reported benefits are reduced stress and anxiety, leading to deep relaxation. This can happen on the physiological level, like lowering high blood pressure and slowing fast heart rate, as well as mentally and emotionally, like feeling centered, peaceful and calm. Transitioning out of a stressed state also frees the brain to tap into creative potentials and allows all the body systems to flow and circulate smoothly. Some people find the experience spiritually enriching, and the experience is not bound to any specific philosophy or dogma. Some people report that even just 20 min of a sound bath feels as restful and restorative as several hours of quality sleep.
What is taiji quan?
Taiji quan is a movement practice that originated as a martial arts training tool in China, traced to the late 1600s. It is a relatively young practice if you consider that the foundations of the movement and its correlating Daoist philosophies had been developing for millenia prior. The practice is generally done slowly and can be adapted to suit a wide demographic. Many people today incorporate it into their regular self-care and wellness routines.
What if I have no experience and have never done anything like this before?
This series is designed to be accessible and modifiable for all levels!
Is taiji quan the same as tai chi?
Yes, these different spellings refer to the same practice, they just come from different systems of romanization. “Tai chi” comes from the Wade-Giles system that was created between 1850-1900 by two British men whose surnames were Wade and Giles. In the 1950s, a Chinese linguist developed the pinyin system, which literally translates to “spelling sounds.” Pinyin is the more widely used system today and is the format that we are using here.
What’s the difference between taiji quan and qigong?
Qigong literally translates to working with energy and is a broad umbrella term for a multitude of practices that involve working with qi. These can be standing, seated, lying down, static, moving, and there are a plethora of styles and practices. Taiji quan more specifically refers to a movement form that originated as a martial arts training tool involving the physical body as well as an internal energy component. So, in fact, taiji quan can technically be considered a type of qigong.
