Sound you can feel changes how you heal. Alyssa sat down with sound healer and world musician Gabriel Logan Braun to explore Sonic Womb, a fully improvised journey that blends voice, handpan, Ngoni, didgeridoo, harmonium, crystal bowls, and live looping to regulate the nervous system and restore a felt sense of safety. Gabriel shares his path from a teenage dark night to bhakti-inspired practice, mentorship, and a decade of offering trauma-sensitive sound therapy in recovery centres, retreat spaces, and beyond.Together, they map the science and the soul: how slower rhythms and low frequencies support a shift from sympathetic arousal into parasympathetic ease; why alpha and theta brainwaves invite calm focus and liminal rest; and how vagus nerve activation, mindful breath, and gentle vibration reshape our stress response. We also dig into somatic release—those twitches, shivers, and waves of emotion that signal the body is completing what it once had to hold—and the role of safe containers in allowing that process to unfold.We pair heat with rest through Primal Fire, Gabriel’s movement framework that stokes Agni with Qigong, dynamic breath work, primal locomotion, and freeform dance, then lands in Sonic Womb for integration. And we travel to Sedona’s red rock country, where ancient iron-rich formations and year-round creeks offer a natural amplifier for presence and ritual. If you’re curious to experience Gabriel’s work, start with the Sonic Womb album, the Wildfire EP, or his new hip-hop track Breaking Through the Static—and, if you feel called, explore our intimate April retreat in Sedona, where Gabriel will co-facilitate with live sound journeys.If this conversation resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs nervous system support, and leave a five-star review so more people can find these tools.
