Return
to Resonance

You’re constantly absorbing frequencies around you.

Other people’s moods, the world’s chaos, the weight of everything. It’s exhausting. And it’s hard to tell what’s yours and what you picked up from someone else.

Balm exists because we need space to turn down the noise and clear the static. This experience gives people permission to come back to their original frequency and to return to resonance.

❋ The ripple effect

So you get stronger at holding that awareness when you go back out into the world. Because when you remember your own frequency, you carry it back out. Into your home, your work, your community, your country. The world needs people who are tuned to love.

❋ We do this together

We practice in community. Like an orchestra tuning, each person listening for their own pitch. The group creates a container that makes it feel safe enough to notice yourself. Hear yourself among others. Feel yourself among others. Be yourself among others. 

❋ The differentiator

Most wellness offerings help people manage the noise. This one helps them reconnect with what’s underneath it. That’s a different conversation and your community will feel the difference. This is the kind of shared experience that makes your studio memorable.

A 90-minute guided sound journey that moves through the body, back to the soul.

The session includes:

  • Movement and breath to open the body’s energy pathways (Tai Chi and Qi Gong inspired)

  • EFT-tapping with affirmations to clear mental chatter

  • Vocal harmonizing to connect with the voice and vibrate from the inside out

  • Guided relaxation and poetry reading

  • Restorative sound bath featuring singing bowls, chimes, and cello

  • Reflection and community sharing

“I felt so calm and light. I let go of things I didn’t even know I was holding. I went into a deeper meditative state than I usually do. Thank you for creating that container.”

— Emmy

“This was a profoundly moving experience for me. Thank you.”

— Maya

“The tapping and affirmations hit right deep in my heart and soul. Such an impactful moment. Very much needed those reminders.”

— Tammy

“Today was everything I needed.”

— Savannah

Meet Your Facilitators

Karen Choi

Creator of Balm & facilitator

After years working behind the scenes in classical music, Karen craved something deeper. She wanted a relational experience you could feel in your body, not just watch from a seat. That became Balm.

Karen designs and hosts restorative music experiences that soothe overstimulation, disconnection, and the scarcity of emotionally safe spaces in our culture today. Blending live music, movement, breath, voice, poetry, and guided reflection, she creates space for rest, reconnection, and present moment awareness.

Trish Lanns

Sound bath facilitator & EFT-tapping practitioner

Her path to this work began while navigating anxiety and depression. Yoga helped Trish shift from an overactive mind into a grounded body. That transformation led her to sound healing and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT-tapping), modalities that deepened her self-care practice and opened her to the power of inner healing.

Trish’s work is guided by love and compassion. Her soundscapes guide people back to resonance. She also teaches slower paced yoga classes (restorative, yin, slow flow) at studios around Toronto.

“The world needs people who are tuned to love.”
