Thank you, January. 🥹

Turning heads at NAMM. Catching up with new and familiar faces and places. Sound healings, healing sounds of laughter and far reaching connections all over the world shaped the month.

Thank you for being a part of my glimmers this month. ✨

✨You’re seeing this because the algorithm knows you’d rather be sitting on a porch listening to this wind chime.

This massive wind chime in downtown Goliad, Texas is staggering in size and has the most beautiful resonance.

And you might notice it has a few scuffs.

That’s because it has survived multiple storms in its 30 years, including a direct hit from Hurricane Harvey.

Let this be a reminder that beautiful things can still be seen and heard right here and now.

We just have to seek them. ✨🌊

3️⃣ underutilized ways to create to peace within and connection with others that we ALL need right now.

🌀Hum or offer a kind word
🌀Grab your favorite instrument to play for 1 minute (You might not want to start once you get started!)
🌀Invite a friend to share a musical moment and a smile with you.

Be kind to yourself so you can be kind to others!

2026 -> 2016 version ✨

As much as things change, they stay the same.

Listening deeply changes everything.

❤️✨Glow up, anyone?

Drop into a deeply restorative experience designed to support your nervous system, cellular health, and overall sense of calm.

Join us for Glow and Restore, a 60 minute Sound Healing and Red Light Therapy on February 26 from 6:30 to 7:30 pm for an experience that blends two gentle yet powerful modalities to help you rest more deeply than you might on your own.

❤️Red light therapy supports relaxation, circulation, and cellular health through targeted wavelengths of light.

When paired with the magic of sound healing using crystal singing bowls, chimes, gongs, and other calming instruments, the experience helps quiet the mind and guide the body into a restful, parasympathetic state.

Personal red light therapy, calming sound healing, and the space to rest deeply is exactly what we need right now!

This event will sell out and space is limited!

Grab your spot now!

Sound healers, this is how you create safety in the room.

Before the first note is played, we introduce the instruments and explain what may happen during the sound bath to the best of our ability.

Not to overexplain, but to orient the nervous system and remind people they have choice.

Clear communication helps participants settle, soften, and stay present with the experience instead of wondering what’s coming next.

It also honors the reality that everyone arrives with different histories, sensitivities, and needs.

🤍Just as important: we never touch participants without explicit consent. Hands-on support is never assumed. Safety is built through respect, transparency, and agency.

When people feel informed and respected, their bodies can actually receive the sound.
 This is the foundation of ethical, trauma-informed sound healing—and it matters as much as the instruments themselves.
  we explore trauma-informed sound healing in depth inside our book and throughout our 60 hours of online sound healing education, including a dedicated module on safety, consent, and facilitation.

✨ Special pricing ends January 19.
 If you’ve been feeling the pull to deepen your skills and lead with integrity, now is the time.

We’ve got your back the whole way.🤍

💌 An update from our sound healing assistant,
Cassiopeia.

She’s still not interested in getting in the grounding bowl, but she sure loves laying near it. 💛🕉️🐈‍⬛

2016 was a vibe and it still has my heart.

Looking ALL the way back through my camera roll 😅, I have so much compassion for this version of myself. Wish I could give her a big hug! She was doing so much. 💓

She also took far fewer photos than 2026 Jessica does.

I had a blast Austin hanging out with their Healthy Minds Employee Resource Group!

We enjoyed a pause in their workday for custom designed sound healing, manifestation discussion, and journaling workshop to set the tone for 2026. What an honor to do this work with such incredible people!

On top of having a spectacular afternoon with this crew, as I was leaving, my contact told me that their global offices are now offering sound baths to their employees, thanks to our collaboration in 2025. It doesn’t get much better than that.🥹💓

Thank you for having me!

Winter invites us to pause and take stock.

Nature isn’t asking for constant growth right now, (at least here in the northern hemisphere 🤍)

The trees are bare. The earth is quiet. Energy is moving inward.

When we let the seasons guide us, rest stops feeling like something we need to earn. It becomes a natural rhythm.

A necessary phase. A place where integration happens before the next expansion.

As I play the Sacred Forest Crystal Harp tuned to Earth OM C #, I’m reflecting on how winter supports grounding, reflection, and deep nervous system rest.

This is the season for listening more closely. For noticing what feels depleted and what is quietly restoring itself beneath the surface.

Sound can be a powerful companion in this process. Gentle vibration meets the body where it is, without asking for effort or productivity.

Just presence. Just breath. Just being.

May this season remind you that rest is not a pause from life. It is part of the cycle itself.
