To be, you.
To be, you.
What is it to be, You? The YOU thatâs YOU is not going to be the same YOU as it is for me. Yet itâs within our similar themes like falling in love and heart ache, of triumph and failure, or adventure and being uninspired etc, that we can find the humanness, compassion, understanding, and love for one another.
A common theme Iâve notice on my IG thread lately, has been this out pour from people feeling like they are starting to feel fully expressed. Stepping into and acting in alignment is a powerful thing. When we feel expressed, or seen, it has the power to heal wounds. It has the power to shift perspectives and make radical change. YOU find the power within yourself to move mountains.
We all have an âEvolution of Selfâ story. Now that youâre here, you can also use this as a way to find more compassion for the path someone else has walked... because just like you, they have fallen in love and have had heart ache, they too have had moments of triumph and failure, or adventure and uninspired moments in time.
Happy 4th!

From where I sitâŚ
From where I sitâŚ
Every month I have the opportunity to hear your stories. I have the opportunity to be let in to the vulnerable parts of your lives, and play a part in your Physical, Mental, Emotional, and Spiritual growth. What an AWE-some role I get to play⌠and I donât take it lightly.
Which is why I seek out mentors.
Which is why I make time to learn.
Which is why I meditate.
Which is why I share personal stories.
If I am not doing my own due diligence, why would you?
I want to leave you with something to think about before before next weeks sound bathâŚ
â˘
Pick an area of your life you are HAPPY with and ask yourself , âWhat about this makes me happy?â Write that down.
Now, pick an area of your life you are NOT HAPPY about. Ask yourself, â What about this makes me unhappy?â Write that down.
â˘
It doesnât matter whether its your health, work, energy levels, abundance, or relationships⌠itâs the story, the belief system attached to it that propels you forward, or stops you from making progress!
Becoming aware of the belief or story you are attached to (even subconscious) allows you to CHOOSE to turn your âI shouldâsâ into âI must, I will, I AM!â
â˘
You have a choice to live a life you love. You can show up and align, or you can blame and fail. Iâm not saying its easy or comfortable. But the only way you are going to move from where you are to where you want to be is to take a look at the story you are telling yourself, take ownership of the role you play in your life, and start stirring the ship in the direction of aligned truth.
Ways I can support you:
1. Monthly Sound Baths (Next up: July 10, July 11, and July 31)
â˘
2. Private 1 on 1 coaching/ sound healing sessions
â˘
3. Sound Healing 101 (Gain confidence in your Sound Healing and Energy work! No experience necessary/ no instruments necessary; July 27th)
â˘
â˘
Recognize that the resources you have been asking for are there for you, and take action. Nothing changes, unless something changes. đ

Shadow.
Shadow.
Yesterday at @modernmystic_shop I had the opportunity introduce a conversation about Shadow work.
Exploring your shadow supports us in feeling that sense of peace, wholeness, and spiritual alignment. It can lead to greater authenticity, creativity, and personal awakening. But what IS the Shadow?
The shadow is the disowned self. The things we feel shame around, the parts we donât want to claim as being a true part of ourselves, and we repress.
If you are thinking about doing Shadow work, here are a few tips in starting the conversation at home.
1. Go in with with non judgement and compassion.
When âmeetingâ with your shadow you want to go in as a witness. This is an opportunity to ask âWhat do you have to teach me?â Itâs not always easy to witness the role you play in your own life when it comes to certain situations or choices.
2. Ground.
Find a comfortable time and place that you can sit with without distraction, and set up sacred space. You may not like what you see or receive from your meeting with your shadow. Grounding can help you to stay the non judgmental witness so you can practice self acceptance.
3. Awareness is power.
Seeing the shadow requires a self-reflective mindset, which is the ability to reflect and observe our behaviors, thoughts, and feelings. Once we are aware, we can then choose to make the change we want to see in our lives. Itâs your choice what to do with the information.
4. Write it down.
Writing down your experience gets it out of your body AND starts to diffuse the charge it has over you. Diffusing the change is an act of self care. So, take into consideration you may need to sit with some emotions.
If you would like to work with your shadows, a sound bath is a great way to go in for that meeting. The next sound bath is July 10th. Give me a heads up that thatâs what you would like to work on, and I will instruct you. We can also do this in a 1 on 1 session. .
I look forward to seeing you soon!

How does Sound Healing Work?
How does Sound Healing Work?
This is a loaded question! Haha! But I love it!
Lets start here for today: Sound helps to facilitate shifts in our brainwave state by using entrainment. Entrainment synchronizes our fluctuating brainwaves by providing a stable frequency in which the brainwave can attune to.
By using rhythm and frequency, we can entrain our brainwaves and it then becomes possible to âdown-shiftâ our normal beta state (normal waking consciousness) to alpha (relaxed consciousness), and even reach theta (meditative state) and delta (sleep; where internal healing can occur). The goal of a sound healing session (usually) is to get you into the theta and delta brainwave states so your body can go into its own natural healing processes.
Depending on what you are supporting someone through in a session, you may use instruments like drums, gongs, and shakers to create this steady rhythm, however, you can also create a subtle rhythm using Quartz Crystal bowls that soothes as it is entraining.
Want to learn more about sound healing? Sound Healing 101 is coming up Saturday, July 27th and for those of you ready to dive in deep! Sound Healing Certification starts August 19th! You will want to register for either of these classes SOON! I keep the classes small for more time with instruments and conversation.⨠I look forward to seeing you in class!

Community is the glue that holds it together! Beautiful evening spent talking about Risk and ways to empower yourself when you are feeling fear.
FEAR definitely made way into the conversation for me when I decided to create Sound Apothecary (images coming soon! đ¤Ş) I mean... overhead, inventory, set hours... đł As Mark RoX TioXon mentioned in the discussion, COMMUNITY is key! And it played a major role in propelling me PAST fear and into creation of my space!
Community, Compassion, Trust... what is something you currently have fear around and one small step you can do today to move forward? đ

Wow... this bowl created a sound that you could feel move from one ear to the other ONLY when I played it for her... not for me... not any of the other times I spent with it... only for her and when SHE plays it.
They really do all have their own personalities and are calling out to their new partners in healing. Kimâs personal meditation practice and yoga students will never be the same!

The dust never settles⌠thatâs just how I roll.
The dust never settles⌠thatâs just how I roll.
Balance is an interesting thing. It doesnât have to look one way or be the same as someone elseâs. There are periods of time where I am âOn the Grindâ, while other times where there is ease and spaciousness. I just go with the ebb and I go with the flow. And when I have too much of one, I feel burned out or stagnant. Once that dust start to settle... Im back up and ready to go!
Today, I invite you to sit.
Notice where on the scale you are currently. Ebbing, or flowing.
And rest there for a moment.
Take in the details of it without judgment.
Then ask yourself, âWhere can I empower myself?â or âWhere can I cast more love?â
Balance is personal. It is a recipe you create on a daily basis that doesnât have to look, taste, or sound the same day to day.
Enjoy creating your recipe for balance and I look forward to seeing you at a sound bath soon!

Summer Solstice opened me up!
Summer Solstice opened me up!
Playing a little catch up today and I am reflecting back to yesterday mornings Summer Solstice event. Flip through to check out some highlights including a short video at the end (check out that gong power đĽâ¨)
SOUND has the ability to open us up to depths of our subconscious that are otherwise difficult to tap into. It has the ability to bring to your awareness where you are holding yourself back. Whatâs so powerful about that is that you canât go back... we now have a choice. A choice to make the change you want to see in your life or to stay where you are.
This Summer Solstice opened me up to a new community. From sun salutations, a medicine wheel and intention ceremony, we practiced right on Peachtree St at the base of the new mural of Aurora at Colony Square Atlanta.
We invited in the light on the longest day of the year holding the intention that by letting in the light, each person would be supported in connecting to, and taking action on their highest truth.
So much gratitude for the lovely Shelly for leading this beautiful event and Colony Square Atlanta for curating the details, holding space, and being open to hosting events that have the power to deeply touch the lives of the community.

What would it feel like to make $5k a month? 10k? 20k?
What would it feel like to make $5k a month? 10k? 20k?
Before I got into doing Sound Healing work, I was a photographer and retoucher for 11 years. When you are in the photo industry you have to know how to share your message through ONE image and often times, very little text. Part of the creative challenge was that I had to tell many different stories because the message would be different for each job and client.
I am sharing this, because I was asked a really great question today: âWhy are you teaching a business class and what experience do you actually have?â
My 11 years in the photography industry gave me that experience. Then, I slowly transitioned into doing Sound Healing work. I was 3 years in when I started teaching âSales as a Spiritual Practiceâ and have spoken and taught at break out sessions at a couple of conferences. .
Interestingly, I had moved back to ATL in 2016 for a Sound Healing opportunity. I moved here, and then the âopportunityâ fell through and I became homeless, bouncing from one friends couch to another while still keeping my business in SF a float. Because of what I am going to teach in the âSales as a Spiritual Practiceâ class, I went from homeless to thriving in 1 year! Keeping my business in SF and building here in ATL.
Some of you donât know what it really means to be an entrepreneur. Some of you are doing great work but are stretched so thin its hard to focus and get out of that fight or flight mode to make any headway. And some of you donât know how to confidently price your offerings, get stuck or feel guilty, and then do it for free or low costâŚ
This class is a step FORWARD in feeling confident in DOING BUSINESS in the work you are so passionate about. You will gain community, clarity, and resources. I have added a coaching call to the class so we can chat a few weeks afterwards to see how you are doing and gain more clarity on next steps!
I am teaching this class because its time. I am teaching this class because I have lived through what you are feeling right now. I am teaching this class because you have stepped into alignment and WE need you to confidently move forward.
