Sleep: Ho’oponopono (Sacred Soundscape)

As the gentle lapping of ocean waves meets the timeless resonance of Gregorian chants, you’re entering a space of deep stillness, where voice and water carry ancient medicine.

This sacred soundscape is designed to soothe the nervous system and quiet the mind. The chants, with their slow cadence and spiritual depth, open the heart to healing. The waves remind the body to let go.

Tonight, we pair this sonic sanctuary with the Hawaiian practice of Ho’oponopono — a soft, soulful ritual of forgiveness, gratitude, and love.
Let your breath slow… Let your body soften… And allow these four phrases to echo through you — gently fading into silence, like ripples on water.

Reviews

As always, I take your tracks very personally, meaning they resonate with my current moment.
I listened this afternoon and honestly I’m only heard the first few minutes before falling asleep. My excuse being that I’d had very little sleep, last night, checking often on my husband on his first night home after major surgery.
I heard and felt your words as this moment in my relationship with my husband and dedicate it to him.
I’m sorry for any pain and unhappiness I have caused you.
Forgive me for feeling angry and pushing you away at times.
Thank you, for being there for me for over 46 years, through good times and bad.
I love you. I always have and I always will.
Life is tough and no relationship is perfect but I have been blessed with angels keeping me on track. I got close to throwing this gift away, I’m so glad I worked through it and didn’t. My love and life is stronger now than ever.
With thanks and appreciation
🙏
I’ll listen again and may hear more of the track ! But can’t promise 🤣

I listened to this track again early this morning and this time dedicated it to myself. I know that if I am to reach any kind of equanimity I must love myself, trust myself and believe in myself.
I did some research on Gregorian chants after reading Peggy’s comments and will send you my findings!

Fell asleep right at the beginning and had a really deep sleep, thank you! 🙏

I usually love your work. My comments here will hopefully be constructive. For me the music, while beautiful was a mis match for the spiritual Hawaiian practice. It created images of native Hawaiians being forced to be Christians.

It was timeless Reuben and ever so beautiful. I wanted to listen to it now because I knew I would fall asleep tonight when I listen to it again. I had woken up very early and my mind was restless. I feel calm and rested now. I can never thank you enough Reuben! From the bottom of my heart always and always❤️💕.
