SOUND SESSIONS
SOUND AS REMEDY
Singing bowls and other sound healing instruments* are played to create purposeful sonic spaces that can promote deep relaxation and help regulate the nervous system.
We work with principles of entrainment to harness and release the thinking mind, allowing access to more subtle layers of energy and being. Results range from stress and pain relief to deeper levels of healing and transformation.
PRIVATE SESSIONS : A private sound healing treatment is like a personal tuning session where specific challenges and intentions can be addressed.
Himalayan singing bowls are placed on and around the body, ringing out harmonics and sending vibrations through the client’s physical and energetic layers. Areas of imbalance may be revealed, and El will intuitively and strategically shape the sound to ground, clear or activate. Other modalities and instruments* are incorporated as needed.
The result is typically a deep sense of relaxation and stress release that can last for several days. From there, benefits vary widely including physical pain relief, improved sleep, body system regulation and access to hidden aspects of self [child, adolescent, shadow, etc] that may be ready for healing.
GROUP SESSIONS [sound baths] : Our sound baths are centered around the subtle interactions of sound, space and self. The fundamental intention is to provide a safe, grounded environment for guests to access the level of healing needed at that time.
Singing bowls are blended with other instruments including tuning forks, percussion, and modular synth/ drones* to create a supportive, sonic backdrop for participants to relax into a meditative state.
*Based on client needs, sessions may include crystal instruments, chimes and, percussion, and modalities including vocal toning, Reiki and Shamanic practices.

Based in Pasadena, California on the land of the Gabrieleno Tongva, we offer in-person services in Los Angeles County and beyond.
Digital and On-Demand sound meditations are available on Bandcamp and Insight Timer and your favorite streaming platform as Heare.
We will not diagnose, prescribe substances, perform medical treatment or interfere with the treatment of a licensed medical professional.
These services can be offered because they are a complement to “healing arts services licensed by the state,” California state Law SB577.
The texture, shape and feeling of sound is the foundation of our production work. We work with principles of entrainment to offer pre-recorded, custom audio and consulting services.
ON DEMAND AUDIO : available through InsightTimer, Bandcamp and your preferred streaming platform as Heare.
SOUNDSCAPES : a more subtle version of background music for business or residences
CONSULTING + COLLABORATIONS : sound design + consulting for artists
SOUND ARCHITECTURE : considering the acoustics effects on occupants beyond noise mitigation
Healing spaces include building a respectful relationship with the land and structures that support and shelter us. We start with deep listening to understand what is needed and welcome by the space.
SPACE CLEARING : shifting ‘stuck’ or outdated energy on existing buildings or the land and welcoming in new Chi
LAND CEREMONIES : sharing intentions for the space, groundbreaking, releasing trauma
TREE CEREMONIES : preparing a tree friend and nature spirits for removal or heavy pruning / limb removal
El Larson is a practicing Druid who works from an animistic, Shamanic perspective and can align rituals with many spiritual belief systems. A portion of the service fee is made as a donation to the indigenous tribe or band who tended the land prior to colonization.
Like acupuncture for the home or work space, Feng Shui assesses how beneficial energy [Chi] nourishes the land, inhabitants and building. Blocks and imbalances may be detected and remedied to support overall well-being and specific life areas.
Physical and energetic adjustments [remedies or 'cures'] may include changes to layout, color and décor, landscaping, personal energy practices and more.
Consciously correcting external conditions that may reflect an internal imbalance helps bring awareness to our more subtle actions and thoughts, offering physical reminders to shift mindset and behavior.
