HOhME creates immersive live sound journeys designed to help people slow down, relax and reconnect. Using handmade instruments including titanium gongs, cello, handpans and singing bowls, these sessions offer a space for deep rest, reflection and meditative listening.

You can view upcoming sound journey and sound bath events on the Upcoming Events page, where current dates, venues and booking details are listed.

A sound journey (often referred to as a sound bath) is a live, immersive experience where sound and vibration are used to create a deeply restful and meditative environment. Layered tones from gongs, cello, handpans and other instruments fill the space, allowing you to lie down, listen and experience sound in a calm and supportive setting.

Each session is designed as a quiet, welcoming space where you can lie down and simply listen. As the session unfolds, waves of sound move through the room, often encouraging deep relaxation, stillness and a sense of mental clarity. There is no technique to follow — the invitation is simply to rest and receive.

The term “sound healing” is often used to describe practices that involve sound and vibration in a wellbeing context. HOhME focuses on creating immersive sound journeys and sound bath experiences designed for rest, reflection and deep listening, rather than making specific therapeutic claims.

HOhME features Barry Mason, Lina Lotto and JuliLa. Barry Mason creates titanium gongs and brings a background in fine art, sculpture and percussion. Lina Lotto brings wellbeing experience, gong practice, percussion and her own forged singing bowls. JuliLa is a cellist, singer and improviser whose playing adds warmth and depth to the experience.

We recommend bringing a yoga mat, blanket and cushion — anything that helps you feel comfortable and supported. Most people choose to lie down during the session, and bringing a pillow and water bottle is also encouraged. If you prefer, you are welcome to sit comfortably.
