Hi!! I would love to hear from you!

Ever wonder why a single tone can soften your shoulders, slow your breath, and make buried feelings easier to face? I sit down with Jessica Rule of Osprey Rising and returning friend Ashley Weir to unpack how sound therapy and Reiki help the nervous system shift from constant alert to genuine safety. Jessica’s story moves from childhood sensitivity and painful school stigma to her first Reiki session, the emotional release that followed, and the calling that led her to build a practice around sound baths, energy work, and even animal Reiki.

We dig into the science and the felt sense. Sound stimulates the auricular branch of the vagus nerve, easing anxiety, helping inflammation, and creating conditions where healing can happen. Jessica explains how she designs a session—starting with brighter tones, deepening into grounding gongs and drums, then gently bringing listeners back—so people can leave calm and clear, not groggy. She shares why adding vocals became a turning point, how voice carries frequency and trust, and what happens when a cat named Finn relaxes under a soft chant. From ICU humming to cultural songs at life’s edge, we explore voice as medicine and sound as community.

If meditation feels hard or talk therapy hits a wall, our conversation offers an accessible bridge. You’ll learn practical ways to start, what to expect at a first sound bath, how to notice which tones soothe or stir, and why consistency matters. We also talk integration: blending energy work with therapy, building a supportive circle, and using simple practices—self-Reiki, journaling affirmations, grounding outdoors—to stay regulated between sessions. Ready to feel sound rather than just hear it? Press play, then share what practice helps you come home to yourself.
