Sound Journey
Sound and silence, like an old prayer for the soul
Welcome.
Imagine stepping into a place where you could rest your soul for a little while, immersed in gentle sounds, softly spoken words and spacious moments of silence.
My name is Michelle Nichols and I offer immersive sound journeys that hold that space.
In a world that is full of noise, demand and expectation, you are welcome to grab a blanket, get comfortable and leave the world at the door. There is nothing needed of you here, and that’s the point.
As a place to rest and be, these slow and spacious sound relaxation sessions are designed to hold space for you with gentle sound, guided relaxation and silence.
The nervous system loves slow, soothing sounds, gentle guidance and restorative pauses.
And that’s why I am here.
In my sessions, you are invited to lay or sit in comfort while I weave instruments such as singing bowls, percussion, hand gong and sometimes voice into the silence. There is nothing for you to do, other than allow me to hold the space while you rest and be with yourself.
Sometimes these sessions help to bring us closer to ourselves, reminding us of who we are beneath the noise and stress of the every day. We leave feeling lighter, more grounded and clearer. Sometimes we are met with emotion (a good cry can feel great), and a good nights sleep following a sound bath is common. Sometimes we feel nothing in particular at all, but enjoyed the pause.
It’s important to acknowledge that slowing down in this way can also feel challenging. Being with ourselves in stillness may not always be comfortable, but it might be the most powerful thing we can do for ourselves.
A Hymn for the Soul
At times, voice is woven into the journeys, layered through subtle looping and reverb.
Offered as an instrument of depth, prayer and remembrance, the human voice offers a deepened experience that touches the soul.
