Shanti Sounds

Sound baths and retreats for people and their animals

Elevating the companion animal bond through interspecies wellness and retreats.

A resonant, grounding experience that helps you and your companion animal release stress and return to a regulated nervous system.

My story

Sound that guides the body back to rest

Stress lives in the body, and it lives in our animals too. Sound baths use soothing frequencies to guide both people and their companion animals out of fight-or-flight and back into rest.

Shanti Sounds brings this work to living rooms, wellness organizations, corporate teams, horse sanctuaries, and animals who serve and work. The same nervous system regulation that calms a dog can steady a herd, a team, or a room full of people who needed permission to exhale.

Ways to gather

Two ways to experience Shanti Sounds

Choose the gathering that fits: sound baths with your companion animal by your side, or sessions just for people.

With your companion animal

Interspecies sound baths

People and their dogs, together

Sound baths where you and your companion animal settle side by side, and your nervous systems come down together.

Private sound baths

An intimate session for you and your companion animal in the comfort of your own space.

Sanctuary and farm sessions

On-site sound for horse sanctuaries, working animals, and farm animals who carry stress of their own.

Day retreats

A guided day that can weave hiking, honoring animals who have crossed over, and a closing sound bath into one grounding experience.

Shanti means peace in Sanskrit. Sound work is my hollow-bone practice: crystal bowls, gong, chimes, drum, Native American flute, and voice, held so a nervous system can actually downshift.

Kind words

Voices from the bowls and the drum

“I was visiting from LA and wanted something uplifting and entertaining. I discovered Shanti Sounds on Eventbrite, took a chance, bought a ticket and went. I especially liked the Native American drumming. Very different.”

David, sound engineer

“My Shanti Sounds experience was out of this world transforming. Intergalactic!”

Lynn

“I hired Shanti Sounds to perform at my very first Wyoming Wilderness Wellness Retreat. Shanti was easy to work with, dependable, and the performance went above my high standards. The sound bath was the best I have ever experienced, and the drumming literally changed people's lives for the better.”

Becky McCullough, retreat host

Referrals

From the people who bring me in

Ministers, wellness directors, and event hosts who have scheduled Shanti Sounds for their communities.

“Shanti Sounds has blessed my life and the lives of many in our community. Shanti always shows up in her heart, ready to serve with her talent, deep compassion, and consciousness. Whenever she is scheduled to drum, play flute, or bring her bowls, I know this will be a transformational opportunity for everyone.”

Rev. Cindy Edelson, Senior Minister and Spiritual Director, Salt Lake Center for Spiritual Living

“Shanti has donated her time to provide sound healing sessions for cancer survivors at Survivor Wellness since 2024. She creates a welcoming setting, ensures that participants are comfortable and well taken care of, and the feedback from those who attend has been consistently positive. She has also offered drum work at our annual event, Survivors at the Summit. With over 300 participants, this event honors those impacted by cancer, and the drumming is a favorite part of the event. Survivor Wellness is grateful for Shanti's presence, skill, dedication and support, and for the healing her work provides.”

Dana Levy, Director, Survivor Wellness

“Shanti was insightful, kind and gentle in her approach. I was amazed how many instruments she used and how great of an impact the sound bath had on me. Thank you for your talent and love.”

Christiana Turner, Quantum NLP

“I am honored to recommend Shanti as an exceptional sound healer. Her presence is calming, professional, and deeply intuitive. Shanti has a beautiful ability to hold sacred space while guiding people into profound relaxation and energetic balance through sound. Participants consistently share how supported, peaceful, and renewed they feel after her sessions. She brings both skill and heart to her work, creating experiences that allow people to truly reset their nervous systems and reconnect with themselves. Shanti is a valued practitioner in the healing community, and anyone who has the opportunity to experience her sound healing will quickly understand why her work is so respected and appreciated.”

Tammy Anderson Ward, Hope Haven Events and Energy Healing Conference

Good to know

Sound bath questions

Do the animals stay for the whole session?
Animals are free to come and go. Most settle quickly once the sound begins, and many choose to rest nearby for the entire session.
Where do sessions take place?
In your home, at your workplace, at a sanctuary, or at a retreat setting. I travel throughout the Salt Lake valley and beyond with a travel fee.
Is this a medical treatment?
No. Sound baths are a wellness experience meant to support rest and nervous system regulation, not a substitute for medical or veterinary care.
