A Different Kind of Sound Experience
This is not performance.
This is not guided meditation.
This is not therapy.
This is a space where sound meets you without expectation.
Each offering is created with a trauma-informed approach—centered in consent, choice, and nervous system awareness.
You are not asked to relax.
You are not asked to feel anything.
You are not asked to stay with the sound.
You are allowed to listen in your own way—or not at all.

Listening First
Sound, here, is not something you have to follow.
It is something that stays with you—whether you engage with it or not.
This work is grounded in:
-
Consent over compliance
-
Choice over direction
-
Presence over performance
You can leave the sound.
You can return to it.
You can let it exist in the background.
Nothing is required for this to work.

These sound offerings are also available for professional use in therapeutic and clinical settings.
Created to support:
-
Trauma-informed care environments
-
Nervous system regulation
-
Non-directive client support
Licensing options are available for practitioners who want to integrate sound into their work—without adding pressure to the client experience.
About
About Sound Alchemist Julie Jewels Smoot
Julie Jewels Smoot is a Navy Veteran, author, and trauma-informed sound artist.
Her work centers on creating sound experiences that do not demand response—allowing the nervous system to engage, pause, or disengage freely.
Through planetary gongs, Tibetan singing bowls, handpan, and drum, she creates spaces where sound is not something to perform—but something to be alongside.
This work is not about outcome.
It is about presence.

Nothing Is Required — Watch & Listen
These videos offer glimpses into my listening practice — studio sessions, guided excerpts, and moments of sound in motion. You are welcome to watch, listen, or simply let the sound exist in the background. Nothing is required of you here.
