TESTIMONIALS

  • Thanks to Shannon's very knowledgeable and caring guidance, I have dealt with emotional baggage that has been plaguing my life forever and I am discovering for the first time about true self-love. I learned two very important things; the ceremony gives you what you need, not what you want and the post-ceremony integration sessions were the most important part of the journey. I will be forever grateful to Shannon for everything she has done for me. Thanks to her, I have discovered a better way to live.

    -Jennifer

  • "Shannon’s decades of experience allowed her to connect with me in a safe, relaxed, informative and deeply insightful manner. I am usually a bit anxious with new people and I was immediately comfortable with Shannon. I would highly recommend her services and look forward to returning for another inspiring and insightful experience."

    — Karen

  • "Right from the introductory zoom call I felt a beautiful connection with Shannon. I felt her wisdom and her presence, and my intuition was correct. The session itself was beyond amazing as Shannon is doing powerful work and operates on many high levels and works with very high frequencies through the senses, the sounds, energetic, spiritual, mental, and beyond. I want to have my next session as soon as possible."

    — Emmanuelle

  • "My journey with Shannon exceeded all of my expectations. I felt so safe and comfortable in her presence, she explained the process so clearly to me, and I felt completely supported for the entire duration of our session. I had extremely profound revelations through my journey, and a few cleansing somatic releases. It's been a few days now since our session and I feel lighter, more at peace, and more in tune with my true soul essence. Everyone needs access to this level of healing - this work is truly life changing and Shannon is a masterful, brilliant guide. I would definitely be interested in pursuing further sessions. Thank you so much, Shannon! This work and the effect on my life and healing can't be fully quantified."

    — Jamie

  • As a survivor of complex PTSD, I struggle with dissociation and being in my body. Through our Guided Sound Ceremony I was able to experience on a somatic level what I had before only let myself understand on a cerebral level. Weeks after our time together, I am struck by the lasting felt sense of embodiment I now have. Shannon found creative ways to intuit and engage with my inner world so that I could feel safe in my outer world. I experienced a deep sense of containment that has often been difficult for me to experience in the past. She led me through somatic practices that helped me truly connect with my intention and my body in profound ways. I believe strongly in the powerful work Shannon is part of, both on an individual and collective level.

    -Hope

  • The sound bath + ceremony with Shannon was absolutely wonderful. I didn’t know what to expect going into it, but I’m so glad I listened to my intuition and showed up because I was surrounded with beautiful intention, love and energy that I’ve been carrying with me for days since the ceremony. Shannon is an incredible sound and medicine facilitator, full of integrity and wisdom. I’m excited to attend more spaces with her. The inside/outside location was amazing, the refreshments after were a lovely addition and I felt such peace through the whole container as we all moved with the music and felt together, breathed together, processed and allowed the love of this beloved mother plant to also permeate our bodies and souls. Highly recommend!

    -Bailey

  • “Shannon is a beautiful musician and spiritual guide. I would happily and highly recommend her services to anyone seeking a deeper relationship with self or for someone with a specific intention or trauma they’d like to better understand. Thank you Shannon for such a loving and beautiful experience.”

    -Drea

  • "It was a beautiful experience and I felt safe as Shannon is very caring and supportive. I experienced an emotional release while crying, received understanding and felt my perspective shift. I was able to process the journey with compassion and love. I loved the music, I found it very inspiring and moving."

    — Florie

  • "In my session with Shannon I felt very supported from the beginning to the end. At the beginning she made sure that the instructions are absolutely clear to me and, throughout the whole session, was very present and responsive to my needs. I felt met at where I am and it felt good to be heard and witnessed."

    — Mahaya

  • "Words are not sufficient to describe this healing experience. Shannon thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making this a safe space. You held space for us in your Women’s Integration Circle! We are full of gratitude! The energy of every being present was clearly a prerequisite to this healing. This space is therapy. We bow to the divine light of love that resides within you."

    — Ariel

  • My heart sits with gratitude for the beautiful magic that is Shannon, Sound Therapist. Shannon's ability to hold compassionate space during our Ceremony fills me with reverence for the intuitive and profound work she does. As a psychotherapist, it was intimidating to be on the other end of the healing. Shannon protected our shared space with such warmth and Presence that my vulnerability felt truly safe to soften and play. From intention setting right through to integration, Shannon inspired curiosity, marvel, and deepened consciousness. To anyone who feels curious or called to work with sound medicine, I encourage you to do so with the majestic energy, facilitation, and support of Shannon Brown. She is a sacred part of our community, and it is an honour to orbit her.

    - Shannon

  • Gratitude, grace, elegance, exploration, healing, beauty, depth, magic are but a few words describing my experience with Shannon. Through her deep knowledge of various practices, she elegantly guided me in an experience of healing, discovery, blooming and revelation. The chance of sitting with her is one to be cherished.

    - Philippe
