If this is you

You've felt what sound can do. Now you want to really know how to work with it.

You've felt something settle in a sound bath. Maybe you've even picked up a bowl yourself, played a little, noticed something shift. But underneath, there's a thought you don't say out loud: I'm dabbling. I don't fully know what I'm doing with this yet.

You want sound to be something real, brought in on purpose, with understanding underneath it.

Imagine this

You guide a sound meditation, and you know exactly what you're doing.

People settle in front of you. Before the first sound, you guide them to truly land in their bodies, in your own words. Your voice is steady. You play your bowl with presence, and you feel what it does, in yourself and in the room.

You notice when someone goes quiet, when the room softens, when something needs to change. And you know how to respond.

What it is

The Embodied Sounds Method®

Embodied Sounds Level 1 is a four-week online training in The Embodied Sounds Method®, the same foundation we teach in our in-person Intensive.

Here, everything comes together in the sound meditation. You learn to play your instrument with real presence, understand what sound is doing in the nervous system and the body, and guide a sound meditation from beginning to end.

The Embodied Sounds Method®

Four levels of every session.

Embodiment is our framework. You learn sound through your own body first, so you can guide it in others.

The Mind

Psychology of sound

How sound shapes emotions and brainwave states, and how to guide where attention goes.

The Body

Physiology of sound

How sound meets the nervous system, breath and tissues, and how to feel and track that in yourself and others.

The Voice

Language and expression

Your voice as an instrument: humming, tone, and the words you use to guide people into their bodies.

The Vessel

Instruments and holding space

Playing with intention, knowing what each instrument does, and keeping the space safe.

How we teach it

From the inside out.

Your own body is your first instrument. When you can feel a sound land in your own breath and body, you can feel when it lands in someone else's.

Science-based

Grounded in how sound actually works in the nervous system, explained in plain language.

Somatically grounded

You feel it in your own body first, so your understanding lives in you, not just in your head.

Trauma-informed

You learn to hold space safely, with care for every person in the room.

Truly yours

A framework you make your own, so you guide in your own way and your own words.

"Just a few hums and I can immediately feel a shift."Julia Milan · Level 1 graduate

"It seems less scary now. Just be present, aware, and keep things simple."Wendy · Level 1 graduate

Who it's for

You'll likely recognise yourself here.

The Space Holder

You already work with people in some way, and you know sound could deepen what you do. You want to bring it in properly, with understanding underneath it.

The Dabbler Going Pro

You've played a little, here and there, and you're ready to really understand what you're doing, and own it.

The Curious Beginner

You felt something shift in a sound bath and want to understand why. You'd love to start somewhere grounded, taught properly.

"I will come back to the videos and reread the PDFs over and over again, as I always find new details." · Julia

What you can do after

A foundation you can feel.

Guide a sound meditation from beginning to end, with The Embodied Sounds Method® underneath it.

Help people truly land in their bodies before the first sound, using somatic language.

Play your bowls with confidence and real presence.

Understand what each instrument does in the body, in plain language.

Read the room, and adjust the sound when it's needed.

Use your voice and your bowl to regulate your own nervous system, every day.

A sneak peek

Our sound meditations start before the first sound.

You learn the Somatic Landing: how to use somatic language to help people truly arrive in their bodies before you play, so the sound has somewhere to land.

"The most important thing was the Somatic Language, the importance of a proper Somatic Landing before starting with sound."Julia Milan

From our students

What changed for them.

Julia MilanLevel 1 graduate

Why she joined

"I wanted to learn more about the instruments, their effects, combinations, and improve my sound baths."

What changed

"I changed the landing at the beginning of my sound baths, taking more time to let everybody land, and I can see and feel the impact on the people."

How she shows up now

"I'm watching and observing the room more to see how everyone is doing, adjusting the sound when it's needed."

"It was really outstanding, and it has already changed my sound baths and my confidence in giving them."

"I left with a genuine sense of deep safety in holding space, something that felt embodied, not just understood in my head."

Elisa

"Joy gave us a framework, so we have the tools to really make it our own practice. So grateful for that."

Wendy

"I've taken many trainings before and even co-taught some myself, I didn't expect to draw so many new things out of this one."

Elisa

"I feel much more confident on how to guide people in and out now. I also found more 'my' way to guide them."

Julia Milan

Hi, I'm Joy

I spent years making sound from the outside in.

I trained in dance, then musical theatre, always singing, and yet I was terrified to truly be heard. I was performing sound, from the neck up. Not from my body. It took me a long time to stop performing it and start feeling it.

I built this so you don't have to find your steadiness the slow, lonely way I did.

Everything in Embodied Sounds is the foundation I wish someone had handed me at the start, taught gently, with the science underneath it.

The feeling

Joy

Professional singer, dancer and yoga teacher. Joy brings the embodied, somatic heart of the work: how sound is felt, and how to hold space with warmth.

The science

Eddie

Professional drummer, Conservatory-trained percussionist and meditation teacher. Eddie brings the music and the brain science: why sound does what it does.

The feeling and the framework, the soul and the science. That's the whole point of Embodied Sounds.

Before you decide

A few honest answers.

I already work with people in other ways. Will sound fit what I do?

That's exactly who this works for. If you already know how to hold a room, sound becomes another instrument in the work you're already doing, woven into a class or a session.

I'm fairly new to this. Is it still for me?

Yes. You don't need to have played an instrument before. Everything is taught from the first step.

I'm not musical. Does that matter?

Not at all. This is about feeling sound and working with it. No background needed, only the genuine wish to go deeper.

What if something emotional comes up in a meditation I'm guiding?

That's exactly what the framework is for. You'll learn to stay grounded and hold space safely if something feels big, while staying clear that you're a sound practitioner, not a therapist.

What if I miss a live session?

Every session is recorded with lifetime access. We'd love you live, but you'll never miss the content.

Do I need to buy lots of instruments?

No. You begin with a single bowl. We guide you personally on what to add, when, and why.

How does this connect to the Embodied Sounds Intensive?

Level 1 teaches the same Embodied Sounds Method®, focused on sound meditation. It's the perfect foundation if you'd like to go on to the full training.

Embodied Sounds · Level 1

Every sound you'll ever play starts in your body. This is where you learn to begin there.

Four live sessions, a library for life, and a circle of people who care about doing this work properly.
