Feeling Sound Dark Peak

Other people on holiday: Let’s eat and ice-cream & swim in the sea!
Me on holiday: Ooh I wonder what my hydrophone would sound like on this beach?

+Sound on for this post btw+

Every month I release what I call Audio Postcards via my Bandcamp, it’s a collection of audio snippets from sounds across the world. Some sent in by my family and the Feeling Sound community.

Last month I featured sounds gathered during our last sound walk using the geofon, conch, contact mic and hydrophone. (Ever wondered what it’s like to listen to gritstone rock? We found out!)

This month I’ve put together some highlights of recordings gathered during my time on Gyllyngvase Beach in Falmouth.

Listen to the plop and sizzle of the waves and bubbling of the sand. This is gonna make some nice loop samples for me to play with for sure!

This process of playing is what I love to do best.
That freedom of seeing what happens, curiosity in finding a new way to listen to the world - that’s the seed of awe and wonder in our lives.

Our next sound walk is on Sun 12th July in Old Glossop, come along and play too.

Only 8 spaces are available, it’s £40 for a four hour gentle hike with lots of field recording toys for us to play with along the way.

I mean have you ever wondered what it would be like to stick a contact mic or geofon on a disused nuclear bunker?! Cos that’s what we’ll be doing!!!

Booking via https://www.feelingsound.co/services or comment on this post the word NUCLEAR and I’ll DM you the link directly 😂☢️

The most special day retreat in Mellor yesterday. Thanks to Sam, Miranda & everyone who came! What a full day of recharging!

To celebrate our new collaboration I’ve released a new album on my Bandcamp with some specially created new music to help you breathe & balance!

To the count of 6, you can listen (in four different versions) and practice what’s called box, square or coherent breathwork.

Thank you The Breath Connection 💚⚖️😮‍💨🔋

Abundance, rest and reset… our themes for this week’s sound baths and meditation sessions. Plus a full day retreat with The Breath Connection on Sunday 🔋

These are the sessions that allow busy people to switch off and finally…relax and enjoy proper rest… 😮‍💨😌

On Wednesday we’ve our guided sound meditation session 6:45-7:45pm at the lovely warm and welcoming Riverside Whaley Bridge.
In these sessions we roll through 2 or 3 different meditation techniques, which are suitable for beginners, with plenty of modifications or options to opt out along the way.

Perhaps you’ve heard of mantra, visualisation, breathing meditation or mindfulness before? We play with a few of these - but instead of awkward silence, we use instruments like the gong, Himalayan singing bowls and other percussion instruments to help us focus our attention.

Afterwards, 8:15-9:15pm there’s a sound bath - do both sessions if you want a proper time out or an alternative Wednesday evening!
This time we’re exploring the Himalayan singing bowls - said to be great for the heart, softening resistance to difficult emotions; and then also our huge handmade Dusk Gong. The gong is a brilliant tool to help us shift physical tension, with some people saying they feel like they’re floating or enjoying visions of space and flying!

On Sunday we’re teaming up with the super talented chaps at The Breath Connection - Sam & Miranda, who hold guided and supervised dynamic breathwork sessions and cold water therapy. Miranda’s is also an amazing cook with a whole bunch of nutritionist qualifications to her name too - her vegan lunches are insane 🤤
I’ll be leading an outside sound walk, guided sound meditation and an extended sound bath to close the day.

There’s the last few spaces available for the Reset Retreat Day to book, it’s this Sunday in Mellor - 10:30-5:30pm. Book this one via Sam & Miranda’s website - comment RESET and I can always DM you the link to save you searching.

Whatever you’re up to this week - school holidays or staying cool on the office, have a brilliant one. Hope to see you at one of our sessions soon 😎

Today a really beautiful thing happened: A group of friends booked a surprise for their friend’s baby shower: a sonic spa experience - just for them.

They arrived to a candlelit room, with a teapot of fresh herbal tea, delicious cake from , gift bags of goodies and a quiet, calming room they could catch up and spend quality time together - arriving, resting and reconnecting.

But here’s the best bit - the mother-to-be didnt have a clue what was happening! Her friends had kept the whole experience a secret! How nice is that? What a different way to celebrate a baby shower!

When we told soon-to-be mum what the heck was happening and where she was she (and her mum!) burst into tears at the realisation of just how much she needed something just like this. (Defo swallowed a lump in my throat at that one 🥲)

And so we eventually moved into a cosy, warm and inviting studio space where I’d designed a session to help celebrate such a wonderful occasion, but also create mental and emotional space for all of the feelings a new baby brings. And more importantly - as her friend’s had requested - a space where their friend could switch off from endless worry.

My therapy toolkit has many paints and brushes, of which the words I receive during a booking inquiry allow me to craft a painting upon a blank canvas that’s personalised and tailored to whatever is going on their life.

Today’s intentions: calm, peace, space, relax, feel the feelings, switch off.

Over the next hour we moved through the monochord, Himalayan bowls, Crystal bowls and percussion with a guided meditation to begin and a sonic cuddle of the freenote wave to close.

Cake and tea followed. And there I saw the shift upon all their faces afterwards.
A lightness, much laughter and tears that were released in the safe space amongst friends and family.

My heart is full. Who knew years of studying music could bring this experience to the world? Not me. Honoured 💚

This Sunday: the SONIC SPA EXPERIENCE for family and friends. ✨ONLY 1 SLOT REMAINING ✨

My usual private sessions are 60 minutes.
Intimate, tailored and deeply restorative.

But this Sunday 17th May, we're going further.

This is 90 minutes.

The whole of Riverside Whaley Bridge, exclusively yours.

Candlelit, Unhurried.

I'll be bringing my full sound therapy toolkit - every instrument, every layer of sound available to us, to create the most immersive, expansive experience I can offer.

Crystal bowls, gongs, chimes and more - all chosen, for you and your group.

Think of it as the ultimate sonic spa: cosy, pampering, and deeply deeply restful.

The gift of reconnection.

Life moves fast. We mean to spend quality time with the people who matter - our partners, our closest friends, our families and somehow the weeks blur into months.

This is an opportunity to press pause. Together.

Not a dinner where you're half watching your phones. Not a busy spa where you part ways at the treatment room door.

A genuinely shared experience - side by side, breathing together, letting the sound do its quiet, powerful work.

Who is the Sonic Spa Experience Day for?

It’s for the professional who hasn’t had a proper day off in months. Who falls asleep scrolling and wakes up already thinking about their inbox. Who knows they need to do something about it — and keeps putting it off because nothing feels quite right.

It’s for the friendship group who keep saying “we should do something nice together” and never quite get round to it. This is the thing. Book it, and everything else falls into place.

It’s for the partner, the parent, the sibling who wants to give a gift that actually means something. Not another candle. Not a voucher for somewhere they’ll never go. Something genuinely memorable, shared, and restorative.

It’s for the wellness-curious — the person whose partner or friend has been banging on about sound baths for ages and who’s finally ready to see what all the fuss is about.
