"Glad you are Here!"
There is a voice, a call, that is both Universal and deeply personal.
Sound, Belonging & Wholeness is about learning to listen to that voice.
Sound, Belonging & Wholeness offers online and in-person programs, circles, groups and individual sessions that explore the wonders of self-created sound and focused listening. Together we remember, reclaim, and affirm our innate belonging in Wholeness (our Essence!) through our collective and individual voices. We nurture a safe, compassionate, and enlivening environment for learning, expression, healing and transcendence (our Code of Ethics).
What do we
mean by Wholeness?
Our definition of Wholeness draws on the teachings of physicist David Bohm, who wrote "...mind and matter are not separate substances. Rather, they are different aspects of one whole and unbroken movement." This definition of Wholeness embraces an orientation to life that is like sound, and like music ever flowing, changing and evolving, and we are in constant relationship with it. The Sound, Belonging & Wholeness journey is an embodied process of growing in awareness of this truth.
The call to Presence
There is a voice, a call, that is both Universal and deeply personal. Sound, Belonging & Wholeness is about learning to listen to that voice. It is an exploration of what it means to belong in the deepest sense—as the loving Presence we all are. In Presence, we belong to the Whole: the Universe, the sun, the moon, the earth, our human and more-than-human communities, and each other. And we belong to ourselves.
Sound, Belonging & Wholeness invites you to reimagine what it means to belong, using your own unique sound—your voice—as a vibratory “welcome mat” to Wholeness, through natural, creative vocal sound-making meditations and exercises, and focused listening practices. No external vocal training is required to fully engage in this process; simply the willingness to explore, with non-judgmental curiosity, our ambient soundscape and our own unique vocal instrument.

The power of your unique voice
Our journey of Wholeness
Sound, Belonging & Wholeness recognizes that our ever-evolving relationship with Wholeness is the spiritual ground upon which all other relationships come into being, grow and evolve. Our journey invites us to open to this truth in a fully embodied experiential way. As we grow and deepen in awareness, we help set each other free: free to love ourselves, one other, and our beautiful, turbulent world. Your voice (yes, yours), and your focused listening, are the most powerful tools you possess in allowing this vibratory reality to unfold. Curious to know more? Visit the Tuning to Wholeness blog.
