Nothing Needs to Happen
Nothing Needs to Happen is an offering of presence without agenda. The song does not guide, soothe, or resolve. It does not ask the listener to relax, heal, or arrive anywhere. It simply remains.
Created for moments when effort itself becomes overwhelming, this piece honors the nervous system’s need for rest without instruction. The sound unfolds slowly and unobtrusively, allowing listeners to stay, drift, or step away without consequence.
This song is for those learning that safety does not require progress, and that being with sound can be enough — even when nothing changes.
Nothing needs to happen.
Nothing is being asked.
