Listen "Overstimulation and Sound Baths: The Hidden Risks + Trauma-Informed Solutions"
Episode Synopsis
This episode dives into one of our society's biggest problems, overstimulation, and how Sound Baths can unintentionally do harm without proper, trauma-informed training. Our clients are arriving to sessions already overloaded with sensory input, notifications, alerts, screens, traffic, stress, and chronic demands. Loud or chaotic Sound Baths can trigger an already overstimulated nervous system. In this episode, Niajae breaks down what overstimulation is, why it matters, and how certain bowl-playing techniques can unintentionally trigger anxiety, dysregulation, or even PTSD when we're not trauma-informed. She shares research, real BioWell data from Bliss Wellness Studio, and practical steps for creating safe, regulating Sound Baths in today's world. This episode is essential for any sound healer, practitioner, or wellness professional who wants to bring integrity, nervous system literacy, and trauma-informed care to their work. Key Takeaways Society is overstimulated, and Sound Baths must adapt. Playing too loud or high pitches can unintentionally harm or activate clients. Trauma-informed training is not optional; it's the industry standard. BioWell data shows most people's energy is operating in overdrive. Softness, pacing, and intentional technique create the safest healing space.
