In this episode, Mat Creedon reflects on something simple, but quietly life-changing: learning how to live in the present moment.
So much of our stress comes from replaying the past or racing ahead into the future. In this gentle conversation, Mat explores what it actually means to return to now — not as an abstract spiritual idea, but as a very real, lived experience you can access at any moment.
To support this reflection, the episode closes with a short preview from a 1-hour 3D Ambisonic Tibetan Singing Bowl Sound Bath, recorded with seven bowls arranged in a circle, placing you right in the centre of the sound. It’s designed to help the nervous system settle and the mind soften — no effort required.

Find a comfortable place to sit or lie down, and allow yourself to arrive.

In this episode of Afterbath, Mat shares Chapter One from his upcoming book Transforming Lives One Note at a Time.
This reflection explores the inner voice — the constant mental commentary that judges, compares, and tells us we’re not good enough, especially when learning music, singing, or trying something new.
You’ll hear why music is not a competition, not a performance, and not a measure of your worth — but simply an experience of sound, presence, and awareness.
The episode closes with a six-minute Christmas Sound Bath preview to help settle the body and quiet the mind.

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.

In this reflective Afterbath episode, Mat Creedon shares the personal story of a powerful shift that unfolded in his life just before Melbourne’s lockdowns — a sudden and unexpected opening into deep calm, clarity, and presence.
Mat talks about moving through rapid healing, experiencing effortless states of bliss, and seeing the world with new eyes — where sunlight, nature, and living beings glowed with a vividness he’d never noticed before. He explores how fear quietly shapes our lives, what happens when it dissolves, and how simple practices like feeling your feet on the floor, placing attention in the body, and breathing with awareness can reconnect us to the only moment we ever truly have: now.
This episode also includes a 6-minute preview from the full 1-hour “Full Chakra Reset” Sound Bath, recorded in immersive 3D ambisonic audio. This short excerpt offers a gentle taste of the grounding, soothing, and subtle shifts that the full session invites.

Hey guys, it’s Mat Creedon here. 
This week on Afterbath, I’m sharing The Story Behind the 110 Hz Stress Relief Sound Bath — an episode that explores the grounding power of sound and the art of releasing tension through vibration.
Tuned to 110 Hz, this frequency is celebrated for calming the nervous system, balancing emotion, and guiding the body back to equilibrium. Modern studies show it activates the prefrontal lobe — the part of the brain linked with emotional processing — helping you unwind, breathe deeper, and reconnect with yourself.
Recorded in immersive 3D Ambisonic Audio using the Soyuz 013 microphone, “Breath of the Earth” surrounds you in rich, resonant tone — a sonic embrace that grounds you through sound.
🎧 Best experienced with headphones. At the end of this episode, you’ll hear a few minutes of the 110 Hz Sound Bath so you can experience its vibration firsthand.

This week on Afterbath, I’m sharing The Story Behind the 98 Hz Gamma Sound Bath — a frequency known for sharpening the mind, heightening focus, and expanding creative awareness.
I’ll take you through how the 98 Hz Gamma frequency connects to the state of flow — where time softens, thoughts quieten, and awareness expands — and I’ll share a personal story from my own meditation practice about learning to move from the wing of the plane into the cockpit of the mind.
Recorded at the Mat Creedon School of Music in Melbourne using the Soyuz 013 Ambisonic microphone, this Sound Bath surrounds you in vibration — as if you’re sitting inside the sound itself.
🎧 Best experienced with headphones. At the end of this episode, you’ll hear a few minutes of the 98 Hz Gamma Sound Bath so you can feel the frequency for yourself.
