Sound baths are full-body listening experiences that calm the mind and body with resonant instruments like tuning forks and crystal bowls.

In order to get the most out of your listening experience, pioneering sound therapist Sara Auster recommends you dim the lights and lie down or sit in a comfortable position with an eye mask and a blanket, silence any alerts or notifications, and use earphones. These things allow you to completely unplug and connect with the present moment to intentionally prepare for sleep. Your body has permission to slow down and rest, to receive without the need to respond or react. Begin your experience by focusing on your breath, then allow yourself to drift into a spacious and dreamlike state. All you have to do is arrive with an open mind and listen.

This is an Audible Original Podcast. Free for members. When you add Sound Baths from Audible Sleep to your library, you'll receive all previous episodes and will continue to receive new ones as they're released.

Some of this is consistently discordant and so, not relaxing or supportive. Hard work listening to a droning sound that became increasingly difficult to endure. Could not finish. Narration was not helpful. First few tracks were supportive; the rest, too challenging to relax into.

This kind of meditative sound work, based on ancient traditional Tibetan sounds, can be very soothing and centering. Thank you Audible for making it available for free. I understand that it requires a certain disposition from listeners to be immersed in these unusual ancient drone-like and repetitive wave-like sounds, but this is just what makes the brain mode shift and release the stresses.

Very annoying… and when I did get to sleep, then a very loud obnoxious sound played.

Terrible!

Not sure how this works but it does for me? Tried a few other sleep podcasts they only work sometimes. This one works every time!

Best one I’ve tried so far!
