Feeling Sound Dark Peak

Accredited sound therapist, meditation teacher and musician with 20+ years of experience - I help busy minds rest, reset and switch off.

Based in the Peak District, I offer relaxing sound baths, guided meditation and private sonic spa experiences.

These are the things people actually say to me after a session...

Not straight away, usually. More as they're putting their socks back on, blinking a bit, looking slightly surprised at themselves.

"I didn't expect to enjoy it."
"I feel lighter."
"My brain feels quieter."
"I slept so well."

Every single time, I think: this is exactly why I do this.

So if you're new to my page, hello! I'm Clare, an accredited sound therapist and meditation teacher, and I run sound baths and guided meditation sessions across Glossop and Whaley Bridge in the Peak District.

What I do, in plain English, is help busy, overthinking people find proper rest, using sound, music and meditation.

No experience necessary, no yoga mat flexibility required, no need to already believe in any of it.

A few ways people work with me:
-Group sound baths – fortnightly sessions at Old Glossop Scout Hut and Riverside Whaley Bridge. A lovely, low pressure way to try it out.
-Private Sonic Spa Experiences – for when you want the full reset, just for you.
-One to one guided meditation support – for building a proper, personal meditation practice with someone gently keeping you on track.
-Gift vouchers – for the person in your life who never stops (you know exactly who I mean).

If any of that sounds like something you or someone you love needs, everything's on my website: https://www.feelingsound.co/ or just message me, I'm always happy to answer questions before you book anything.

Next dates: Wednesday 9th September at Riverside Whaley Bridge; and Friday 18th September Old Glossop Scout Hut.

The silly moments you never get to see…

Dancing like absolute loons. High fiving (Sally, love you, but we might need to workshop your technique... PhD in psychology, apparently no qualifications in high fives 😅 - only kidding 😝).

This is what nervous energy looks like before a shared event.
All that hoping everything clicks into place, all that "have we got enough mats" energy... and sometimes the only thing to do with it is jump around like pogo sticks and be completely silly for two minutes.

These are the bits nobody sees. The human bits.

On Wed 9th September I’m back doing my fortnightly Wednesday night sound baths at Riverside Whaley Bridge! Sally’s back the week after. And Sam does nap club first Wed of the month.

Usually, legend Sally closes her yoga class, hands the studio ‘baton’ straight over to me, and I open the sound bath.

Wednesday nights at Riverside Whaley Bridge. Two humans who take this seriously and also, clearly, do not… 🤡

What's the last thing that got you so absorbed you lost track of time completely?

For me, it was the most unexpected thing: a dartboard my husband Matt and I put up in our living room the night after a trip to Roxy Ballroom in Manchester.

In this episode:
-I break down why throwing darts gave me the exact same flow, calm and focus I work to create in sound baths and meditation
-We cover flow state, neuroplasticity, the prefrontal cortex and a deep brain region called the putamen
-Plus how mantra meditation, breath work and walking meditation tap into the same pathway.

When did you last actually listen to something, rather than just hear it?

I recorded this one on a sound walk around Whaley Bridge, starting at the canal basin and ending up on an old disused tramway near Goyt Mills, trying to properly tune into everything around me instead of letting it all blur into background noise.

This episode is about the difference between hearing and listening, why silence creates the space that makes real listening possible, and how to start listening with your whole body, not just your ears.

I share a simple sound walk exercise you can try anywhere, plus some of my favourite field recordings, including one made underwater, so you can genuinely listen like a fish.

Ever wondered if sound therapy is backed by anything more than a nice feeling and good vibes? Honestly, it's a fair question!

For this episode I dig into a major new systematic review covering nineteen clinical studies across eight countries, looking at what the research actually says about Himalayan singing bowls, anxiety, sleep, cognitive function and nervous system regulation.

Spoiler alert: The science is finally catching up to what your body already feels.

Five Small Things: It's National Relaxation Day this week, which always makes me laugh a little, because relaxation isn't something I think you can switch on for one day a year.

It's built from small, repeated things, done on purpose, week after week, until your nervous system starts to expect them.

Fun fact: I've been asking new people who come to our sound baths how they'd like to feel when they leave. In about 97.689% of cases (not at all scientific, by the way), people write one word: relaxed.

So here's what my actual week looks like, the five small, slightly unglamorous things I lean on to get there.

1. I spend time in the greenhouse with no agenda. Just pottering, checking on things, watering. It's the closest thing I have to a moving meditation.

2. I practise violin badly, on purpose. Messing about, no pressure, just for the joy of the sound.

3. I move, even when I really don't want to. A run, a walk, doesn't matter. It clears my head every single time.

4. I protect a non-negotiable wind-down ritual. Ten quiet, screen-free minutes most evenings, same time, every time.

5. I let myself do nothing, without guilt. Still uncomfortable some weeks, but genuinely important.

None of these are dramatic, that's rather the point. A full blog with a bit more on each one (and the science behind why they actually work) is up now: https://www.feelingsound.co/blog/how-to-be-less-stressed-5-things-i-do-to-relax

What are the small things you do that help you relax? Don't forget to make time for them!

Has your body felt like it's working against you lately, and nobody seems to be talking about why?

This one comes from conversations I keep having in my private sessions, with people of every gender, not just the ones we usually hear about.

Episode nine looks at perimenopause, menopause and andropause, and the hormone shifts that touch every part of daily life.

I explore what sound baths and meditation can genuinely offer as complementary tools for regulation, backed up by real research.

Your body does something incredible every single day. It deserves kindness, not criticism.

Ever had one difficult moment turn into an entire evening of your mind running away with itself? The what ifs taking over long after the actual thing has passed?

This one's personal. I share a moment when someone said something hurtful, and how I caught myself doing exactly what I teach others not to do, spiralling.

It's not my most comfortable episode to have recorded, but probably my most useful.

We get into the neuroscience of anxiety and catastrophising, and I share five genuinely useful ways back to the present moment.

Knowing the tools and remembering to use them in the moment are two very different things.

All episodes are up at feelingsound.co or listen in all of the usual podcasting places.

When did you last sit in proper silence, no phone, no podcast, no background noise? Be honest. For some - the idea of silence is actually scary, and anxiety inducing.

I recorded this episode beside a stream in the Peak District, which felt like a bit of a cheat given the whole thing is about silence.

I'm exploring why we've lost our tolerance for silence, with proper research behind it, silence doing more for your body (and even your brain) than the most soothing music can.

Doing nothing has become a lost art. This episode makes the case for finding it again.

Lying in bed wide awake, willing yourself to sleep, and somehow that makes it worse? What's your bedtime routine actually look like?
I recorded this episode on a dark evening walk through Glossop, which felt like the right mood for talking about switching off at night.
This is one of the most requested topics from my sound bath clients. I cover binaural beats, solfeggio frequencies, and the journey your brain takes from beta right down to delta at night. Deep rest is a habit, and sound can genuinely help you build it. There's a free thirty minute delta binaural beats sleep recording linked too, if you want something to fall asleep to tonight.
Find the full episode and every other one at feelingsound.co or via the link in my bio.
And you missed it, earlier this week I published a blog on my website with five sound bath techniques for better sleep. Rest well! Zzzzzzz.
