Awareness in Sound is an immersive 45–60 minute auditory workshop that centers the healing and grounding power of mindful listening. In a world filled with constant noise, speed, and pressure, this session offers space to pause, breathe, and reconnect with one’s internal landscape.Participants are guided through performed musical selections—from the meditative lines of J.S. Bach to contemporary works by Reena Esmail, Mario Lavista, and others. After each piece, attendees engage in short reflections that heighten their awareness of how sound affects their bodies, emotions, and thoughts.
As the workshop progresses, participants explore sensory awareness and experiment with guided improvisation. The workshop concludes with closing reflections and practical take-aways for integrating mindful listening into everyday life.
Led by COOS Teaching Artist Matt Williams II, this workshop is ideal for students, community groups, arts organizations, workplaces, and anyone seeking new tools for self-care, creativity, and internal grounding.
