Sound Healing Meditations

A somatic journey where ancient wisdom meets modern well-being. Soothing Himalayan tones wash over you — quieting the mind, softening the body, settling the spirit.

Vivek guides each session with over 40 handcrafted singing bowls, layered with binaural beats to support deep relaxation and nervous system regulation. It's a multidimensional soundscape — richer and more textured than a traditional sound bath.

No experience needed. Come as you are — curious, tired, seeking, or just ready for a reset.

Testimonials

Vivek performed an hour long session. I relaxed and my husband, who has Parkinson's Disease, experienced total relief from tremors for 2–3 hours. That doesn't sound like much but it's amazing that vibrations and sound can have that effect. My husband wants to visit Vivek again!

I have been attending Vivek's sound baths fairly consistently for the last 3 months. These sessions have decreased some of my anxieties significantly. I have also noticed a marked decrease in pain from a very old injury. I would recommend visiting Somatic Sounds to anyone in search of emotional or physical healing.

The Group Sound Healings are wonderful. Vivek skillfully customized his services and bowl placement which facilitated a deeper experience. The vibrations penetrated to my core inducing a profound out of body experience. I emerged feeling like I had a physical upgrade, greater mental clarity, and joyfulness.

We absolutely loved our sound bath journey. Our Facilitator, Vivek used about 30 handcrafted singing bowls and lulled both of us into a deep theta brain state. I even fell asleep and felt rejuvenated after, with some of the best sleep that night. What a beautiful hour of symphonic relaxation.

Vivek's intuitive ability to empower you to help you find what you need within is shown again and again in each session. This is not a passive listening experience. It transcends the moment and takes you exactly where you need to go to find what you need within yourself.

A profound, transformative experience. Vivek's skill and intuition created an intensely powerful sound healing session, both physically and spiritually. If you're seeking deep relaxation, inner connection, or energetic healing, I highly recommend booking a session. I'll definitely be back!

Vivek is a healer inside and out! His sessions will change your life, your vibration, your energy and more. So thankful to have discovered his offering, which has simply put me on a more beautiful path of wellbeing!

I've been attending regular sound baths and they've made a huge difference in my anxiety levels. I feel calmer, more grounded, and better able to handle everyday stress. It's become an essential part of my wellness routine.

Vivek creates a sanctuary space of sound. I went into the session feeling some emotional weight, and left lifted and lightened. I felt a significant shift after bathing in a pool of soothing sacred tones. I highly recommend booking sound healing sessions with Vivek.

Vivek's playing is a next level experience — like seeing colors with sound and even feeling as if you are levitating! Vivek is also such a personal, fun, and super knowledgeable guy to chat with. Highly recommend. I'll be returning when I'm back in town!

I booked a private sound bath for me and my friend and it was an extraordinary experience. Vivek created a custom selection of healing bowls and even played them directly over the body. You can tell he is passionate about what he does and has built a great collection of bowls from all over the world.

I've attended Vivek's sound baths for a couple months now and they are deeply experiential, soothing, meditative, and even transformative. He is friendly, thoughtful, and wants you to have a great experience every time. Vivek isn't just about tones and vibrations — he is about creating sound journeys that heal.

An unforgettable experience! We were all reflecting today on how deeply impactful it was. Thank you so much for holding such a powerful space. We're already looking forward to your return!

It was my first time having a soundbath with Vivek. Very unique and powerful experience — the whole setup is relaxing and enhances the sound session. I reached deep relaxation and dreamlike states that I've only experienced through very different means. Impressive.

Vivek's somatic sound sessions are relaxing, rejuvenating and transformative! He weaves together the beautiful sounds of Tibetan singing bowls, gong, and other instruments to help you transcend your physical body and enter into vibrational alignment.

The session was very powerful and healing. I felt a beautiful energetic shift and was able to move a lot of stagnant energy. Vivek's energy is so calm and he is extremely professional. I really felt at ease and look forward to another session soon.

I have recently been introduced to sound healing this past year. I got into it after listening to studies on the effects of vibrations and frequencies through the body. If you haven't tried it you need to do it with Vivek. He is really skilled at what he does and I've had noticeable results.

Vivek is incredibly intuitive and down to earth. I felt at ease from the moment we met. My experiences in his sound baths have been healing, grounding and super uplifting to the spirit. I'm so happy to have crossed paths and would absolutely recommend a visit to Somatic Sounds!

So I've been to at least half a dozen of these and I can honestly say, they're addictive. Every time, it's a different experience. Sometimes he walks around the room with the bowls, playing directly over you — which is really neat.

Vivek is professional and such a gentle and compassionate practitioner and person. His bowls, gong, and chimes ripple through my mind, body, spirit gently and moves energy that is stuck. I will definitely be returning more frequently. I highly recommend experiencing sound healings the way he does it.

I attended a sound bath by Vivek this weekend and wow, it was amazing! I felt so calm, centered and grounded. He took me to another dimension! A wonderful experience that you won't find anywhere else in Asheville. I highly recommend.

I have experienced different kinds of sound healings over the years, and I love the Tibetan singing bowls that Vivek facilitates sessions with. I felt so relaxed, grounded, and a bit blissed from the experience. His bowls, gong, and chimes move energy that is stuck. Such a healing presence!

Vivek's take on sound bath healing is unique and powerful! I've had some experience in the past with sound baths and sound healing and it's always been with crystal bowls. And while those are beautiful, I think Tibetan bowls pack more of a "punch".

We had a fantastic sound healing on Sunday with Vivek. He made it very relaxing and comfortable and took the time to answer questions and set our expectations. My friend was a newby and can't wait to go back! Highly recommend!

I have done sound baths before, and this was such an intimate setting with only 4 people, allowing for a better overall experience than I have previously had. He also had many more bowls than I have seen before. So relaxing and reasonably priced. I'll definitely come back!

Vivek's sound healing was a wonderful experience I would recommend to anyone I know. Like a guided meditation, it is both relaxing and energizing and my mind was filled with constantly shifting shapes and colors.

This sound healing was super effective. It deeply relaxed me and helped me sleep through the night. I also feel more at ease this next day. Highly Recommend!

Great experience with Vivek. He knows his stuff. You won't be disappointed. Excellent experience. Relaxing and easy going environment.

I have been going regularly to Vivek's sessions since my first one last month. It's a very healing space that allows me to integrate a lot of the work that I've been doing. I'm fortunate to have found him.

Frequently asked

Everything people usually wonder before their first session — and a few things worth knowing once you've been a few times.

Sound healing is a practice that uses intentional sound and vibration to support your physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. It begins from a simple idea: the body has a natural rhythm, and the pace of daily life — stress, tension, depletion — can pull it out of tune. Sound healing offers a way back. In a session, you simply lie down and let the tones of Himalayan singing bowls move through you. There's nothing to do, nothing to figure out.

People come to sound healing for many different reasons, and its benefits are felt across body, mind, and spirit. Most often, people notice:

  • Deep relaxation and relief from stress, anxiety, or low mood
  • Better, more restful sleep
  • Easing of physical pain and tension held in the body
  • Emotional release and a sense of lightness
  • Clearer thinking and a calmer, more focused mind
  • A feeling of being grounded, restored, and reconnected to yourself

You don't have to arrive with a goal. Whatever you bring, the sound tends to meet it.

My bowls are hand-hammered in Nepal from bronze — an alloy of copper and tin — using metalworking techniques passed down through generations. Because each one is shaped by hand, no two are identical, and every bowl produces a complex, layered tone you can feel in the body, not just hear. Unlike crystal bowls, which tend to ring with a single clear tone, Himalayan bowls carry rich overtones that move and shift as the bowl is played. Together, those layered tones and textures create an immersive soundscape that surrounds you completely.

That depth is what makes them so effective for somatic work. The vibrations penetrate deeply, and when bowls are played around or over the body, you feel the sound as much as hear it. Every bowl in my collection has been chosen by hand for its tone and character.

None at all. Sound baths are open to all levels — whether you're a seasoned meditator, exploring a new path to relaxation, or simply seeking stress relief. Just show up, lie down, and let the sound meet you where you are.

A group sound bath is a journey through sound with over 40 handcrafted Himalayan singing bowls. You'll arrive, settle in, and find a comfortable spot lying down. Once everyone is settled, the room quiets and the session begins. This is more than a sound bath — it weaves sound bath and sound healing into one immersive, somatic journey. There's nothing for you to do: just rest and let the sound carry you.

No. Sound healing is a complementary practice — it works alongside traditional medicine, not instead of it.

There's no rule — but most people find the effect deepens with regular sessions. Once a month is a steady rhythm for relaxation, grounding, and overall well-being.

People often come weekly or bi-weekly when they're working with something more specific, such as:

  • Reducing stress, anxiety, or low mood
  • Improving sleep and calming a restless mind
  • Easing chronic pain and physical tension
  • Emotional release and processing
  • Restoring energetic and chakra balance

Trust your body. It will tell you when it's time to return.

Yes. Custom sound healing sessions are available for corporate wellness, healthcare settings, schools, fitness and recovery programs, senior wellness, and retreats.
