About this app

LET'S CHANGE THE WAY WE HEAR THE WORLD

Soundworks provides access to unique and modern sounds designed by world-class artists to deepen your daily meditation practice.

Rediscover your sense of hearing from a biological and cultural perspective, using simple techniques for working with sound as an object of mindfulness.

> Timeless techniques meet modern sound design.

Soundworks combines various meditative disciplines with the precision and clarity of modern electronic sound design. Building on a decade of experimentation in immersive media experience and psychoacoustic research, Soundworks offers a uniquely honed sound palette to enhance the quality of your daily meditations.

> Created by artists, grounded in neuroscience.

Soundworks offers sound meditations and listening sessions designed to enable clarity, insight, and calm. Our artists, experienced meditators in their own right, take cues from the neuroscience of sound and aesthetic perception to create unique experiences in auditory mindfulness.

> Your space to cultivate inner and outer inquiry.

The Soundworks app includes a new daily sound every day as well as courses, extended sessions and conversations. Courses touch upon scientific, artistic or philosophical themes with a contemplative spirit. In conversations, we involve artists, scientists or thinkers to discuss meditation, science, music and health.

FEATURES

- The daily sound: a new sound meditation every day, with the ability to add time at the end of the sound to continue meditating in silence.
- Introductory Course: a 7-day introduction to sound meditation covering our sense of hearing from a biological and cultural perspective, and introducing simple techniques for working with sound as an object of mindfulness.
- More courses: from learning the mysteries of dreaming, to exploring time and space, or observing the nature of our perception and cognition, we offer a series of contemplative learning experiences using sound as a gateway towards insight.
- Extended sessions: purely sonic adventures for longer meditation sessions.
- Conversations: talks or interviews with artists, scientists, and thinkers about meditation, science, music, and health.
- Timer: a meditation timer including a choice of intro and interval sounds.

Absolutely beautiful app, straight at first sight (and listen). Love the focus on sound and philosophy. The daily sounds are powerful yet calming. And the simple interface is a great support to getting into a meditative state. But unfortunately, I cannot afford the £6.99/mo subscription and wish there was a basic free option with a daily sound. 😓

As a long time mediator and someone who is going blind, these techniques are bringing a wonderful new path into my practice and a great sense that I have so much more to discover. I am so Grateful to all at Soundworks who have poured time, effort and love into creating this app. Thank You💙.. Update - the sessions get even better with time:)
