I had the opportunity to spend Labor Day weekend with my friend and fellow sound healer, Heather, at her beautiful hideout overlooking the Sound just north of Everett. We spent much of our time outdoors – chatting, listening, playing our sound instruments, and sinking into quiet contemplation as the beauty around us unfolded. One evening, as we watched a gorgeous sunset paint the sky, there was such peace, such stillness, and such a sense of completion. It truly felt like the closing of summer and the gentle threshold into fall. Nature has a way of mirroring our own inner cycles, reminding us that we, too, move through seasons of change.
As the seasons shift, I find myself moving through deep transitions of my own. August was a month of change – I sent my youngest off to college and my son to Italy for a study abroad adventure. Suddenly, the house is quiet, and I find myself stepping into the role of an “empty nester.” This season is also bringing awareness to the natural cycles of relationships – some deepening, others shifting, and some gently falling away. Much like the trees releasing their leaves, these changes invite reflection, acceptance, and trust in the unfolding. I am also noticing a new awareness of my parents’ growing needs for care, which is calling me to be more present in new ways. All of this is inviting me to pause, reflect, and lean into the process of rediscovering my own passions.
This season is calling me to look inward – to reconnect with what lights me up, to sit in stillness, and to welcome in what nourishes my soul. Tomorrow, I leave to attend a Sound Healer retreat in Northern California, where I hope to immerse myself in healing sound, explore new modalities, and receive the medicine of nature. Later in the month, I’ll travel to Europe for a few weeks – to explore, to be inspired, and to visit my son abroad.
Just as autumn invites us to release and make space, I am leaning into this time of letting go and rebalancing. And I invite you to join me in doing the same through the healing power of sound.

We’ll begin with a fire ceremony to gently release what no longer serves us, creating space for clarity, renewal, and conscious intention.

Unlock Your Healing Potential – Sound Healer Certification
Last week, I had the joy of attending a sound bath led by one of my students, Lorry, at her beautiful property. It was a perfect summer evening outdoors – beginning with gentle yoga and flowing into a soothing sound bath under the open sky. I felt so proud of her and all that she has accomplished since her training, and it was such a gift to experience her holding space with confidence and heart. Watching my students blossom into their own unique practices is one of the greatest rewards of teaching this work.
If you’d like to see more of her offerings, you can follow her and her business, SoLunaFrequency, on Instagram at @lorrymariegreen.
Lastly, I want to share that there is just 1 spot left in the upcoming Fall Sound Healer Certification Course, happening October 17–19. If you’ve been feeling called to step into this work — to explore sound as a healing modality, to deepen your connection with yourself, and to learn how to share this medicine with others — this may be the time.
The Promise Within Endings
As I reflect on that sunset over the Sound – the quiet beauty, the letting go, and the promise of a new day – I’m reminded that every ending holds within it the seed of a beginning. Just as the seasons turn, so too do we find opportunities to release, realign, and welcome what is next. My wish for you this autumn is balance, renewal, and the courage to embrace your own cycles of change with grace and openness.
OH! And I might have added a couple new instruments! Come check it out at the next sound bath!
