"Sara Auster is the sorceress of sound and her new book Sound Bath is a guide to exploring the world of sound through her eyes, ears, and heart. The book is deeply soulful and rooted in science, anecdotal stories, and Sara's incredible experiences as a sound practitioner and meditation teacher. As someone who’s had the pleasure of participating in a sound experience with Sara, I am thrilled that people far and wide will now have access to her wisdom and practices she lives by to help guide them to a more mindful life.”
—Latham Thomas, women’s wellness maven, founder of Mama Glow, bestselling author of Own Your Glow
“As sound meditation and healing rise in popularity, it's helpful to have an all-encompassing resource that roots the practice in its fundamentals and practicality. Whether you have an intimate understanding of sound practices or you're brand new to them, everyone can benefit from the ways that Sara so generously shares her methodology and process.”
—Ellie Burrows, Co-founder and CEO of MNDFL Meditation
“Sara Auster is a very special being who knows how to empower people with sound. She presents the essence of a Sound Bath in a way that one ‘hears sounds in her words.’ Sara has a unique ability to appreciate all sounds, create a safe space, and trust in the ear of the beholder to discover what is therapeutically most important in their life. If you have attended a Sound Bath, are thinking about facilitating a Sound Bath, or want to know more about the therapeutic value of the Sound Bath experience, I highly recommend you read Sound Bath.”
—John Beaulieu, N.D., Ph.D., author of Human Tuning
“I find the work Sara Auster does with sound simple and transformative. I don’t know quite how she’s able to bring a room full of people to full attention and hold them there. She has a gift and I feel lucky to have experienced her spirit-tuning ways.”
—Kelly Corrigan, author of Tell Me More
