    Background:

    Caroline took her first yoga class many years ago when she was attending university in America. The class was during lunch hour and many students including athletes attended the yoga class. It brought calmness to the stressful student life at that time.

    Many years later, yoga was introduced back into her life by a dear friend and colleague. This time yoga remained a source of peace, calm and self healing. She fell in love with the yoga teachings of self awareness and how it opened up a whole new outlook of self exploration.

    Caroline attained her Yoga Alliance Accredited Yoga Teacher Training and started teaching yoga. As her practice evolved, she started attending sound healing classes which she found extremely beneficial for the mind and body. She pursued her love for sound healing with Christina Nikolovski in Tuning Fork, Crystal bowls and Tibetan Bowls. Caroline believes in the holistic approach of healing and her greatest wish is to help her students find balance, love and mindfulness and they embark in their own journey.

    As a certified multi instrumentalist sound healer, Caroline has a special affinity towards gongs. Her love for gongs and inspiration to provide a healing environment for others lead her to further her gong studies with Master Mehtab Benson. With the 1:1 mentorship, she got her certification in Gong Therapy. Undeniably, the gong is a powerful instrument and its volume can be intimidating to many, especially those who are new to sound meditation. Caroline’s aim is always to provide a relaxing and safe environment via the gongs by tapping into the richness in layers of overtones, thus providing a tapestry of soothing tapestry of sound and vibrations. As gongs are indeed powerful, it can be used therapeutically to unblock deep set emotions and be healing to the individual if they wish to explore deeper into their own self healing journey.

    What first drew you to sound therapy, meditation, or contemplative practice?

    I was drawn to practices that helped me slow down, reconnect with myself, and find calm within the busyness of daily life. Sound and meditation became a gentle way for me to support both my nervous system and inner awareness.

    Why does creating space for rest and awareness feel important today?

    We live in a fast-paced world where many people are constantly overstimulated and disconnected from themselves. Creating space for rest allows the body and mind to soften, reset, and feel safe enough to simply pause.

    What do you invite participants to experience during your sessions?

    I invite participants to slow down, soften, and listen inwardly. There is no need to achieve anything — only an opportunity to rest, receive, and be present with themselves.

    What does “a space to simply be” mean to you?

    To me, it means a space where nothing is required of you. A space where you can let go of expectations, doing, or performing, and simply exist as you are.

    How do you cultivate moments of presence or rest in your daily life?

    I try to create small moments of pause throughout my day through breathwork, quiet reflection, mindful movement, nature, and allowing myself moments of stillness without needing to fill every space.
