How to prepare for your upcoming sound experience
A little preparation can help you feel comfortable and make the most of your time at Zensō. Whether you’re joining a private session or a group sound bath, there’s no experience needed and nothing in particular you need to achieve.
Before you arrive
Eat lightly
Have a light meal beforehand so you arrive comfortably nourished, without feeling overly full. There’s no need to fast.
Dress for comfort
Wear loose, comfortable clothing. Where possible, avoid belts, buttons, zippers, and drawstrings with metal tips, particularly around your abdomen and chest, where bowls may be placed. These can feel uncomfortable or rattle against the bowls. You may also wish to remove jewellery before we begin.
Stay hydrated
Drink water regularly throughout the day. There’s no need to drink a large amount just before your session.
Arrive on time
Please check your booking confirmation for the location and arrival instructions, and allow enough travel time so we can enjoy the full session together.
Leave yourself some breathing room afterwards
If possible, avoid scheduling something demanding immediately afterwards. Give yourself time to feel fully alert and grounded, and to reflect on your experience. You may feel ready to rest or pleasantly energised, so leave room for either.
For private sound therapy sessions
Complete your intake form
Please submit your intake form between one week and one day before your appointment. This gives me time to review your needs and prepare for your session.
Let me know what would help you feel comfortable
Use the form to share any health conditions, pregnancy, recent injuries or surgery, implanted medical devices, sound sensitivities, or difficulty lying down. Please also let me know if anything has changed since your last visit, so we can discuss suitability and any adjustments beforehand.
For group sound baths
Check your event listing for venue-specific details and what will be provided. If a mat or other item is required, it will be noted there.
For extra comfort, you’re welcome to bring:
A water bottle
A towel or light blanket
A small pillow
An eye mask, if you enjoy using one
A journal and pen to capture any reflections afterwards
If you have health concerns, sound sensitivities, or accessibility needs, please contact me before the event so we can discuss them privately.
During your session
You don’t need to quiet your mind or try to have a particular experience.
You’re welcome to adjust your position, keep your eyes open, or ask for a change if anything feels uncomfortable.
Before we begin, please silence your phone and any smartwatch notifications.
I look forward to welcoming you.
