In this episode of Afterbath, I share a personal reflection drawn from the introduction of a book I’m currently writing — a story about music, burnout, compassion, and an unexpected awakening that arrived quietly through everyday life.
Following the reflection, I invite you into a six-minute sound bath featuring Tibetan gongs and a rain stick. It’s a short, spacious pause designed to help the nervous system settle and the mind soften. No technique, no effort — just listening.
If you’d like to go deeper, you can experience the full one-hour sound bath here: 👉 https://youtu.be/hRBWEOcprP4
Best enjoyed with headphones, lying down, or simply playing in the background as you move gently through your day.
