Sound Baths
Certified as a practitioner of crystal singing bowls, Colleen from Redwood & Reef has a curated collection of Crystal Tones crystal alchemy bowls for premium crystalline sound bath experiences. She facilitates sound baths around the Monterey Peninsula, often blending the meditative sounds of the bowls in harmony with the soothing sounds of nature. Also in the R&R collection are a series of supportive instruments such as chimes, ocean drums, rain sticks, thunder drums, and a gong for sound journeys.
The majority of R&R sound sessions are based in Carmel, California. However, Redwood & Reef welcomes the opportunity to bring the benefits of sound to spas, retreats, corporate wellness programs, vacation rentals, and homes of private clients in Monterey County.
Sessions can be sound baths on their own or as an add on to a yoga and meditation offering for a deeper experience.
The R&R Sound Experience
Thoughtfully designed sound baths and journeys weave together Crystal Tones® alchemy singing bowls to create an immersive sound experience that invites deep stillness, relaxation, and inward connection.
SESSION FLOW
Each sound session is composed with a combination of intuition and design, allowing the notes, tones, and alchemies of the bowls to build upon one another and create a progressive experience that may include:
Grounding and nervous system settling
Emotional softening and release
Energetic expansion and clarity
Deep integration and stillness
No two sessions are identical. The sound field is responsive to the individuals present, the instruments being played, and the environment itself.
No prior experience is necessary, and there is no expectation of what you should feel, experience, or receive. You are simply invited to listen, breathe, and be in stillness.
ABOUT THE INSTRUMENTS
Sound bath sessions incorporate premium Crystal Tones® alchemy singing bowls, Quartz is the foundation of the crystal singing bowl. Alchemy bowls build upon this crystalline foundation, incorporating additional minerals, metals, and gemstones to create distinctive tonal and harmonic qualities.
As such, each alchemy bowl carries its own vibrational character. Together, these instruments create a resonant field of sound and intention designed to support relaxation, reflection, and a deeper connection with the present moment.
In Sound Journeys, additional instruments, including natural chimes, an ocean drum, rain stick, may be woven throughout the session to create gentle movement, transitions, and atmospheric depth.
