Sound Bath
Sound Meditation, Music Therapy, and Shamanic Drumming
Using sound frequencies and vibration, the sound bath is an immersive experience in music and meditation. With his unique musical abilities and background, Justin creates a one-of-a-kind sound meditation experience. He has a special talent for handpans, wooden tongue drums, powerful skin drums, crystal bowls, tuning forks, gongs, and many more overtone-emitting soundscape instruments to create the space for profound relaxation, movement of stuck energies, healing and insights. Often collaborating with top-level musicians to incorporate string instruments like mandolin, viola, guitar, banjo and many more, along with vocal vibrational healing and icaros (medicine songs).
Justin has been a drummer for 27 years, but discovered his passion and distinct medicine with sound vibrations through the magic of tongue drums and hang drums. As a passionate researcher, Justin has collected years of study on the therapeutic and esoteric properties of sound from a variety of perspectives including Western scientific, Eastern philosophical, and shamanic societal beliefs. This has helped him to gain a deeper understanding of how, and to what extent, sound has been used to affect human consciousness. He has worked to gain experiences which lend a perspective that incorporates art, science, philosophy, and spirituality.
Justin is obsessed with soundwave frequencies, harmonics and overtones. He has spent years working extensively with cacao ceremonies, leading sound meditations, and playing live music with a variety of yoga and breathwork teachers. He is a member of an improvisational medicine music group, which is in the process of creating an album of original medicine songs and a recorded sound journey. Justin is passionate about investing his time, and energy in creating and holding space for personal healing and growth.
