One question that comes up regularly is what to bring to a sound bath session?

Wear warm socks or comfy footwear. Wear something loose and comfortable. Please dress for the weather or environment.

Bring water to hydrate before, during, and after your session.

Bring a yoga mat or thick towel to rest upon. Consider bringing an extra mat to use under your knees for added support. Also, bring a pillow, comfort item (such as a stuffed animal) or a fidget. I do have fidgets available, and you are welcome to keep it. 😉

I offer eye masks for you to keep. Feel free to wear your own! If you would rather, I have small washable towels that you can place over your eyes during the session.
I have a basket for the used towels to be washed and sanitized.

If there is room or an outdoor session, you are welcome to bring your own chair. This is especially helpful if getting up and down from the ground is difficult.

During warmer months, you may want to bring sunglasses, sunscreen, lighter clothes, and blankets as well as insect repellent for outdoor sound bath events.

I also offer ear plugs for sensitive ears, or perhaps a sound just doesn't sound good to you.

Those wearing hearing aids may want to turn them down or off during your session.

Phones should be on airplane mode or off. If you wish to record our session, please ask before doing so.

Did I miss anything?

If you have attended a sound journey before, do you have a suggestion of something you use when you attend a sound bath event?

New instrument time! 🥳

This is called a 'Swing Chime' and sounds really cool. I'll be adding it to the mix of instruments I play during sound baths.

What's a sound bath?

It's where you are immersed in sound with a variety of instruments. No water needed!

You may hear someone sing, play gongs, chimes, wind instruments, crystal or brass bowls, string instruments and more with different sound practioners.

Sound baths can help you with:

- Having a good night's sleep

- Calming your nervous system

- Help with stress and anxiety

- May help with emotional release

Each sound journey is different but there are a few elements I share regularly such as:

* A brief demo of what I will be playing. If there is an instrument that doesn't sound good to you then I won't play that during your session.

* Free play for anyone interested in trying out the instruments!

* I give out eye masks. These are for you to keep. 😉 If that's not something you feel comfortable wearing I do provide a clean washcloth for the session. Also, available with Lavender essential oil upon request.

Your comfort during the experience is what is important. You are welcome to move around, sit up, or lay down. You can also stop the session (For 1-on-1) or leave the room if you need to.

Have you been to a sound bath before?

I've been a bit quiet. As life goes, there is a lot going on. Sudden car repairs, my eldest gave birth to her 3rd (He is cute as a button), health concerns around her pregnancy, birth, and beyond as she may be challenged by postpartum, as well as worrying about her general health (Thyroid cancer survivor, Lupus Warrior, and other mystery ailments yet to be named). Then my body decided to hyperextend and I have tears on several important parts of my foot. SIGH! Now don't get me wrong I am blessed! I woke up today. We have food in the fridge. A sweet new baby to snuggle and hug.

This foot thing kinda set me back from putting myself out there and I canceled a session, also an event I was planning on participating in, and I was offered to bring my hoops to a future event but life is just full this month.😭

I have an official appointment in a few weeks to see how bad the damage is. I do have a private party at the end of next month that I am excited to be doing. I am relying on Mr. Awesome to help a bit more.

For now, I'm resting, binging shows, (First round of the Lord of The Rings series done 😍!) practicing my instruments, and chatting up a storm to God for clarity, wisdom, and healing.

Coming up in a few days you can catch my reels and possibly a podcast episode for 30 days of all things related to Domestic Abuse Prevention beginning October 1st on Hope when there was none. My podcast is by the same name on your favorite listening platform.

Hope you are all well and having an AMAZING day!

🌻👟 TO OUR AMAZING WALK 5K IN HER SHOES SPONSORS — THANK YOU! 👟🌻
As we get closer to the Walk 5K in Her Shoes, we want to stop and recognize the incredible businesses, churches, organizations, farms, and families who said YES to standing with Woven Hope and the women we serve. ❤️
Fair Oaks Farms • Touhyville Media • Premier Water • Faith Homes • Alliance Bank • Deyoung Farms • 24/7 Club Fit • Kentland Bank • Dizzy & Zen • Rahmazing Training • Cup of Joy • Cornerstone Realty • Crown of Glory Worship Center • Little Cousin Jasper 5K • Jasper County Republican Women • Tammy & Kendell Culp • Steve & Cay Jordan & Family • Rensselaer Trinity United Methodist Church
Every sponsorship represents so much more than helping us host a 5K.
It says our community cares.
It says women in crisis matter.
It says restoration is worth investing in.
And it says no woman should have to walk through her hardest season alone.
Whether you donated financially, provided a location, shared resources, promoted our event, or simply stepped forward and said, “We want to help,” you became part of this mission.
From the entire Woven Hope Inc. family and the women whose lives are being impacted by this community — THANK YOU. 🌻
We couldn't do this alone, and thankfully, we don't have to.
On October 3rd, every step we take will be a reminder of what can happen when a community comes together to STEP. SUPPORT. EMPOWER. RESTORE. 👠👟💕
Breaking Crisis Cycles. Bridging the Gap. Restoring Hope.

🏡 WOVEN HOPE IS EXPANDING! 🌿
We have some BIG news — Woven Hope has been blessed with a SECOND HOME! ❤️
That means more room. More women served. More opportunities for fresh starts. And most importantly, more HOPE.
As we prepare this new home for the women who will be walking through its doors, we still have a few things we need to make it feel like home, not simply a house.
🏠 SECOND HOME NEEDS:
Living room furniture
4 tall dressers
End tables
Bathroom rugs
Hangers
4 laundry baskets
Laundry detergent
Dryer sheets/fabric softener
Paper towels & toilet paper
Feminine products
Shampoo, conditioner, body wash & other hygiene products
Groceries to fully stock the kitchen
New or gently used furniture and dressers would be such a blessing. Household and hygiene supplies should be new/unopened.
Every dresser filled, every grocery placed in the cabinet, every towel and bottle of detergent says something to the woman arriving:
“Someone thought about you before you ever walked through this door. You matter. There is hope here.”
We are incredibly thankful for a community that continues to come alongside Woven Hope as we grow. Two homes means more women can have a safe place to land while they begin building what comes next. 🌱
Please share this post even if you aren't able to donate. Someone in your circle may have exactly what this home needs.

🌿✨ SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT — DIZZY & ZEN! ✨🌿
We are so thankful to Dizzy & Zen for sponsoring Woven Hope Inc.’s Walk 5K in Her Shoes! 👟💚
Their mission connects so beautifully with what this walk represents—healing, empowerment, restoration, and women rediscovering their strength.
Dizzy & Zen is a trauma-informed wellness and empowerment business offering sound baths, coaching, movement, meditation, and restorative experiences designed to help women find balance, reconnect with themselves, and rediscover the strength that has been there all along. 🌿
At Woven Hope, we know healing isn't always a straight path. Sometimes it looks like taking life one breath, one choice, and one step at a time.
That's exactly what Walk 5K in Her Shoes is about. 👟
Every woman has a story. Every journey looks different. And sometimes the greatest gift we can give another woman is simply reminding her:
🌻 You are seen.
🌻 Your healing matters.
🌻 Your strength is still there.
🌻 You don't have to walk alone.
Dizzy & Zen, THANK YOU for believing in women, supporting Woven Hope, and helping us create a community where healing and HOPE can grow. ❤️
We are so grateful to have you walking alongside us!
👟 Breaking Crisis Cycles.
🌉 Bridging the Gap.
🌻 Restoring Hope.
