Sound Meditation is truly nothing new. Have you ever had a challenging day, decided to listen to a song you love, and then feel better? We know music and sound move us. It is a form of language we all speak. It is something quite unique to us humans. More specifically, sound meditation uses overtone-rich instruments such as gong, singing bowls, chimes, flutes, and many others as a way to disengage from undesirable habitual patterns and to empower positive cognitive change. There is an incredible amount of information on the power of sound. Some of the main benefits are quieting the mind, bringing oneself to a state of inner peace and calmness, physical relaxation and rejuvenation, dealing with insomnia, a tool for self-exploration, consciousness expansion, self-therapy, self-healing, and self-inquiry. All you need for this practice is to show up as you are with the willingness to be changed by what you hear.

His sound meditations begin with conversations around sound, spirituality, and consciousness, followed by breathing exercises, guided visualizations, and vocalization. Central to this practice is a soundscape consisting of instruments such as gong, singing bowls, chimes, and other overtone-emitting instruments that lead us through a potentially deep and immersive experience of Self.
Joshua cherishes the power of community, where collective wisdom and support nurture personal and communal growth. His approach is grounded in creating inclusive spaces where individuals can connect deeply and authentically to their innermost hearts.
