Sound bath

A sound bath is exactly what it sounds like. You lie back, close your eyes, and let waves of sound from singing bowls, gongs, chimes, or tuned instruments wash over you. It draws on traditions that have used sound contemplatively for centuries, from Tibetan bowl practice to Vedic chant. There's no technique to learn and nothing you have to do. The instruction is, essentially, listen.

You matched here because silence isn't quite restful for you, but rich sound is. Some nervous systems settle better with something gentle to rest attention against, and tone and vibration do that without asking anything of you. A guided practice paired with calming ambient sound suits that preference well, especially at the end of a long day when the last thing you want is another instruction to follow.
