enso Retreat Centre, Salt spring Island, BC

sound healing brings together a collection of sacred instruments - singing bowls, bells, gongs, flutes, and voice - to give rise to an ambient, vibrational soundscape. in this divine container of sound, your energy comes into harmony with the energy around you, alchemizes a profound space in which you can access deeper healing.

what is sound healing?

Everything in the universe is attuned to a specific frequency or vibration. For human beings existing in a modern world, we are receptive to the energetic frequencies around us. Perpetual exposure to stressful situations, whether past or present, actual or imagined, has an impact on our own vibrational energy.

Sound healing - sometimes also referred to as sound bathing - is a holistic practice facilitated by trained musicians and sound healers, who play instruments that can recalibrate the energetic frequency in a contained space. The deep vibrational sounds have a profound effect on the human body, bringing us back to a state of harmonious calm.

what are the benefits of sound healing?

Erin Routly is joining our retreat lineup again this year at enso. She is offering this unique experience of a soundscape journey like no other.

Meet Erin:

I am an alchemist of healing.

I believe that we each have the capacity to be complicit in our own healing, and I have dedicated my career to guiding others towards wellness. We often prioritize healing our physical bodies, but I believe we must also commit to healing our minds and spirits in order to be fully well. Integrating a variety of modalities to address the wholeness of the healing journey is a ritual in alchemy.
