About

I couldn't meditate either.
And that's exactly why I trained.

Origin

The first time I sat still and didn't fight it.

I know what it's like to sit down to meditate, close your eyes, and immediately start composing your to-do list. I knew stillness was good for me. I just couldn't get there.

A friend invited me to a sound bath at Nobu Hotel. I almost didn't go. The first session was interesting. The second changed something. No dramatic moment, nothing transcendent. Something more ordinary and more useful. I walked into the room in my head, the way I always was. I walked out present. Quieter, not because I'd tried to be, but because something had done it for me.

That was new. I wanted more of it. Eventually, I wanted to give it to other people.

Training

Not a weekend certificate. A serious training.

I don't make decisions impulsively. When I chose to train as a sound therapy practitioner, I chose the British Academy of Sound Therapy. The UK's most rigorous professional training in the field. A clinical, evidence-informed qualification that taught me the why behind what I'd felt.

How sustained sound frequencies shift brainwave states. How vibration activates the parasympathetic nervous system. How the body, given the right conditions, knows how to let go.

Understanding the science didn't make the experience less interesting. It made me trust it more. And trust it enough to build something around it.

Who it's for

The people who hold everything together.

Chime & Flow exists for the people who know they should be resting and can't figure out how to do it.

Most of them aren't broken. They're busy. High-functioning. Often the person in the room who holds everything together. They've tried the apps. They've tracked their sleep. They still feel like they're operating at 70%.

What they haven't tried is sixty minutes of lying still while live instruments do the work for them. No effort, no technique, nothing to get right. Not a wellness experience that looks good on Instagram. A genuine reset. Whether you come to a public evening, host a private gathering, or commission a retreat, the intention is the same. You leave feeling different from how you arrived.

The other half

Why a project manager makes a good sound therapist.

By day, I'm a senior project manager at one of London's largest live venues. Which is why I'm slightly obsessed with how a room feels, how an event is held, and what it takes for a group of people to genuinely arrive somewhere together. The two halves of what I do are less different than they look. Both are about making spaces where people who carry a lot can put it down.

"I'm not here to be a guru. I use sound, considered and live, to make rooms where people who carry a lot can put it down."
