The Sonic Spa Experience
Jane has been certified since 2016 as a Deep Listening® Facilitator. She offers, guides, educates, composes, and produces events for all people to experience communal creative listening and novel sound practices.
Jane provides a variety of Sonic Spa Experiences, in the form of:
- Sonic Spa “sound baths”
- Deep Listening© and Sonic Spa Workshop packages
- Jane’s original ambient music compositions
- Concerts
- large and small-scale events in which she collaborates with other sound healing therapists and nervous system regulation coaches.
- Sonic Spa Experience sound baths, workshops and packages gives small groups, or individuals, tools to explore their bodies, the environment, and creativity in a playful, safe, and private practice. Sessions provide opportunities for healing, balance, and restoration for the participants. These multi-sensorial activities are designed to playfully engage participants to orient to their surroundings, initiate regulation, and renew creative energy and well-being.
- Lasting Benefits! The most effective lasting benefits occur with at least 3 sessions, since each one builds from the prior one. So do ask about packages.
- Discovery Call: Please contact Jane if you’d like to schedule a free 15 min. discovery call, in which we can discuss your goals and needs.
Based upon and expanding the Deep Listening practice, Jane tailors each Sonic Spa Experience to provide a toolset for participants to develop their own restorative practices throughout their daily life.

Deep Listening (DL) was founded by the composer/performer/electronic musician Pauline Oliveros, her partner Ione (writer, therapist, dreamer), and Heloise Gold (dancer, Tai Chi master) in the 1990s and continues to evolve. DL encompasses non-denominational flexible experiences that promote expanding consciousness through multi-sensorial listening activities that are accessible and attuned to each person and group. Listening involves more than hearing with the ear, it’s an engagement of attention with the whole body, dreams, and imagination. Deep Listening is playful and contemplative, enlivening our present moment while asking us to recall or imagine, individually and collectively. Jane’s Integrated Sensory Experience (ISE) sessions, available here, build upon Deep Listening® practices through her ongoing research of well-being and resilience gained from trauma-informed expressive art practices. Jane guides and opens possibilities and potential for others through these creative methods. Her study of well-being, nervous system regulation, and sound bath practice has been informed by her studies and recent coaching certification from the Organic Intelligence© OICC, and her work at the Lyda Hill Institute for Human Resilience.

Pauline oliveros’ 80th birthday
As part of Pauline Oliveros’ 80th birthday celebration, Jane was invited to compose a sonic meditation (text scores/prose guidelines). Her scores are archived on the Still Listening Oliveros website here.
sonic meditations
For Jane, Imaginary Meditations bring us to the source of sound (i.e. our imaginations). They are contemplative scores that guide the listener into their own inner sounds that can promote memory, communal dreaming, and creative sonic curiosity that can enhance one’s daily life experience.
