Sound, Connection, Presence

Whether you’re preparing for birth, wanting to experience a sound journey, or simply seeking a moment of stillness and connection — SoundBirth supports you through presence, quality sound healing tools and creative ideas on how to integrate sound into your life.

SoundBirth

Are you pregnant and would like to add the supportive nature of sound to birth?

SoundBirth was created in 2011 to inspire and educate women, birth partners and professionals on how to use sound as a powerful tool for relaxation, connection and empowerment during birth.

Through simple yet profound practices using a crystal singing bowl and vocal toning, you can create a birthing experience rooted in confidence, connection and presence.

Sound Journeys

Do you have an event or a group wanting to experience a relaxing sound journey?

I will introduce the instruments (crystal and Tibetan singing bowls, gongs, Koshi chimes, tongue drum, flutes and more…) and take participants on a journey into themselves through sound, which will leave them feeling connected, present and deeply relaxed.

Ideal for yoga centres, wellness retreats, birthdays, corporate wellness events, ceremonies, library/council events …

1:1 Sound Mentoring

Do you feel drawn to facilitating relaxing sound journeys for others, but don’t know where to begin when it comes to choosing and playing the instruments?

Let me take away the overwhelm by assisting you with choosing instruments and showing you how to play and combine their sounds to create a sound journey that will relax even the most stressed-out person!

Sessions are held in Leeming.

Testimonials

  • Sarcha Thurston - Owner of Yogahub

    “​Yogahub has been working with Nicole Lloyd since 2016. Together we have produced a unique sound and yoga experience that has become a favourite among our clients and a mainstay on our programme. Collaborating with Nicole has been a fantastic experience. Nicole teaches that sound is both a science and an art. Nicole holds a university degree in music so her performance skills are exceptional. As a sound therapist, performer and friend, Nicole has our full support and admiration.”

  • Toni Cronk - Mother of 2, Homebirth

    “I never thought, "I can't do this" or "I need drugs" or "take me to the hospital" because the bowl kept me present and grounded. I felt safe and calm during the contractions. I truly believe without the crystal singing bowl my labour would have been unbearable. I am generally an over thinker but as I said the bowl and toning gave me a singular present focus. I also love the sound the crystal singing bowl makes.”

  • Diane Baldwin - Sound Healer, "Starbee Artistry"

    “In 2020 I met Nicole and was a part of her Sound Facilitators Program. It absolutely opened my eyes to sound and the beautiful flow and connection I can have in being playful and rediscover myself. Connecting other sound healers and creators in the process also allowed me to discover play and find what works for me. My discovery and play hasn’t stopped, opening up to creating my own instruments and myself. Nicole is a wealth of knowledge and connection I would highly recommend her courses who are also supported with IICT insurance. And as well Nicole’s vibrance for life and her own unique connection to everything she does, it just opens doors.”

  • Susan Krachler - Midwife

    “It would be worth investigating what the crystal singing bowl could do for you, not only in labour but for pregnancy relaxation and vitality. I think that perhaps it is also great for life in general.”

  • Walt

    “I just recently ordered my first crystal singing bowl, through Nicole and was blown away with the process! She was a wealth of knowledge and helped tremendously in my decision making process to match me to this beautiful instrument. On top of that, the speed of delivery to my front door really made it an effortless experience. Highly recommend and will definitely be back to order more!”

  • Trina Stacey - Mother of 2, Author

    “Since the workshop I have really embraced increasing the amount of music in our home. I have created a little lullaby and have been singing it and playing along on the piano every day, I have also acknowledged my fear of making strange noises during labour. ”

  • Kathryn Chivers - Sound Healer "Blind Kat"

    “I LOVED Nicole's Sound Facilitator Training! The sessions were fun, informative, encouraging, and gave me the skills and confidence I needed to be an effective sound facilitator. And best of all, I made a new friend in Nicole! Thanks Babe!”

  • Anita Emor

    In 2020 I started my journey into sound to share with others for healing and meditation ✨

    I love love love music and from developing a regular meditation practice wanted to know more about the science and musicality of the sound bath sessions.

    I met Nicole who was facilitating a sound healing event at a soulful community-oriented space, Yogahub.

    After having lessons with Nicole I felt the buzz and awe of playing the instruments and finding my way!

    Here’s to the various group lessons and 1:1 mentoring sessions I have had with Nicole and the words of encouragement and support from my community; family and friends.

    Always grateful for those who have led, guided, taught, mentored and continue to as we flow, play and create.
