Sound bath with Lexa

You lie down, close your eyes and listen. Lexa plays the singing bowls and the gong and works with her voice, and the sound reaches the body before the mind has its say. Of all the practices she leads, this one asks the least of you and often goes the deepest.

What it is

What is a sound bath

A sound bath is a session in which a guide plays live instruments over people lying still. Nobody talks you through anything. The bowls, the gong and the voice work through vibration, bypassing the mind, and the body relaxes on its own, with no effort and no control.

Sound here is felt in the body as much as it is heard. All it asks of you is to lie down and let it reach whatever is holding on.

With Lexa

Sound healing as Lexa leads it

Lexa, who teaches under the name Amrita Devi Kaur, has spent more than 14 years combining practices that work with the body, with attention and with state. Sound sits next to kundalini yoga, breath and hypnosis in her work, and on her retreats it usually ends the day.

In Miami, in March 2026, she held sound meditation for a group of women in a house by the water. In Sedona the mornings belonged to breath and kundalini yoga, and the evenings to sound and hypno-meditation.

In the room

Sound bath meditation: what you do

You lie on a mat under a blanket with your eyes closed, and that is the whole task. There is no posture to hold and nothing you could get wrong.

Your depth is yours to choose. You can sit up, step out or listen with your eyes open, and nobody will ask you why.

Questions

Asked before a first sound bath

What does a sound bath do?

The body relaxes on its own, with no effort and no control, and the sound reaches whatever is holding on. Some people fall asleep, some lie wide awake, and both are fine.

Is it normal to cry during a sound bath?

Yes, it happens. Nobody in the room will stop you or ask about it afterwards, and you can step out at any moment if you would rather be alone.

Who should not do sound baths?

Tell Lexa about your health before the session. Some practices have contraindications, and they are talked through with you before the practice starts.
