Hi, I’m Annette
I have recently developed a sound healing practice; however, this is not my first foray into a musical career! I was a classical piano player throughout my childhood and was accepted into music school at FSU. However, I also had a deep desire and passion for the healing arts, which led me to take a veering path toward receiving my MSW in Social Work, putting music on hold. During the same period, I became fascinated with mindfulness retreats and the healing arts, spending the last 30 years in monthly silent retreats, participating in reiki trainings, completing UCLA mindfulness teacher training, and teaching meditation classes and retreats.
A year ago, I had an inspiration to purchase Tibetan singing bowls after having a dream about a beautiful blue butterfly. A week after the dream, I saw the butterfly in my dream right beside a vendor selling singing bowls. It was a magical inspiration. I knew that finally, music and healing arts had come together. It was a natural progression after learning new skills to intertwine years of musical training and healing practices into a sound healing journey that I’ve come to deliver. Thus, the birth of leading sound baths for people was a natural outcome. I found my own unique sound bath presentation through intuition, years of musical training, and guidance from experts, maybe even the blue butterfly :). It is my hope to create inspirational sound healing sessions in group settings and individually to help others discover ease, mental clarity, relaxation, and transformation.
My Approach
Sound has been an integral part of sacred rituals and healing practices across civilizations, from the mystic chants of the Himalayas to the resonating gongs of the Far East. It is my belief that the universe itself vibrates at its own frequency, and by aligning with these vibrations through the sacred sounds of singing bowls and gongs, we can harmonize our inner and outer worlds. In this harmony lies the key to profound healing, not just of the body, but of the mind and spirit.
Healing Through Sound
The vibrations produced by singing bowls and gongs are not only heard through the ears but felt throughout the body. These vibrations can help to release tension, promote relaxation, and facilitate the natural healing process. Our sound baths are a sanctuary where you can let go of stress, anxiety, and the pressures of modern life, and allow the healing sounds to restore your mind, body, and spirit to a state of balance and harmony.
Community & Connection
We believe that healing is not an isolated journey but one that is enriched by community and connection. Our sound baths and guided meditations are spaces where individuals come together to share in a collective experience of tranquility and rejuvenation. It is in these gatherings that we realize we are not alone in our search for peace and healing, and that together, we can amplify the power of sound and intention to create a more harmonious world.
