About this listen

Headphones recommended.

Allow your mind to clear with the cleansing, high-pitched notes of tuning forks in different frequencies. The powerful bell-like sound helps create a spacious sense of calm as you prepare for sleep, like a refreshing reset button at the end of the day. In order to get the most out of your listening experience, pioneering sound therapist Sara Auster recommends you dim the lights and lie down or sit in a comfortable position with an eye mask and a blanket, silence any alerts or notifications, and use earphones. These things allow you to completely unplug and connect with the present moment to intentionally prepare for sleep. Your body has permission to slow down and rest, to receive without the need to respond or react. Begin your experience by focusing on your breath, then allow yourself to drift into a spacious and dreamlike state. All you have to do is arrive with an open mind and listen.

Sara Auster is the leading voice in sound bath experiences, and considered a master of the form. Sara has been featured in The New York Times, Vogue, TIME, and O, The Oprah Magazine, and she has facilitated large-scale, site-specific sound bath experiences at iconic venues around the world including the Museum of Modern Art, Madison Square Garden, Palais de Tokyo, and SummerStage in Central Park. Her live sound bath events are celebrated as transformative, therapeutic experiences for balance, relaxation, and well-being. We're thrilled to be able to bring this unique sound experience to the comfort of your own bedroom for the first time.

Relaxing

I fell asleep listening 4 minutes in. I don’t know how that happened. However every time my mind started to wander off into my thought roller coaster the next “ding” brought it back to the sound.
… That was the fastest I’ve fallen asleep in a long while. I will try this again.

Someone playing too many forks

Listening to this short simple track is like listening to a wind chime! is one tone ends another picks up as if the wind was blowing across the forks! It's very clearing and very beautiful. It will put you to sleep! I'm glad to hear it make this 2 hours long the 7 minutes appears to be the exact time to have it!

Very calming

I listened to this audio book around four O'clock in the afternoon and it calmed me immediately. Added this to my favorites so I can listen to this audio book whenever needed. Nice work by Sara Auster.

Really helpful idea's

This is basically the philosophy of James Allen. It makes a lot of sense, and was written a while ago. A very short book, but he hammers his message home. The book would be useful for changing your thoughts.

Nice Listen but only 5min

This is only 5 min long, but it was good to listen to in order to calm down and breathe deep after an outdoor run. I have heard tuning fork sounds before, and know that they are typically used for calming down purposes, so I kind of knew what I was getting used to.

This is a free Audible Original exercise and health wellness audio production, and that is what it is good for. A nice extra perk, but nothing to spend money on. You can find tuning sounds and playlists on YouTube with very little effort.

Use caution with PTSD

This audiobook was my first experience using tuning forks or other audio-resonance stimuli to induce a state of relaxation. As such I was a little conflicted when the first time I used this, I had adverse effects. I turned on the audiobook, turned off the lights, lied down on the bed, listened until it stopped, then took off my headset and went to sleep. I fell asleep almost instantly. I awoke in the morning to a very uncomfortable flashback to my past trauma. "What a sick price!" I thought--feeling utterly betrayed and preyed upon. But such is the nature of traumatic expression. I marked this book as a 1/5 star, wrote no review, and uninstalled it. Then something inexplicable happened...

I was struggling to fall asleep a few nights later. I lay awake in bed, hot and sticky and restless. I tossed and turned, unable to sleep for a full hour. I lamented and reinstalled the audiobook, then repeated the steps as mentioned before. I fell asleep within five minutes of the end of the audiobook and slept soundly--no adverse effects this time. Since then I have used this audiobook a handful of times when sleep has been elusive. I have felt no dependency upon this book, and I have slept fitfully for the past two weeks without listening to it. It's an interesting, specialized tool in my toolkit now. It has certainly sparked my interest into further audio-resonance therapy.

I would encourage anyone who is interested in alternative therapies to try it. Just be wary if you have a history of trauma.
