Sound Bath Sessions 288: Zelena Chua

Zelena's voice could be heard in the group sessions when she sang the upper harmonies and the spoken words. Her voice is clear and confident. Her sessions were unique as she wanted to do both spoken word and singing bowls. The only way to successfully do this would be to record them separately and merge them in post giving us the flexibility to edit any mistakes but also to control the tempo for a more emotional session.

Her scripts are very personable as she speaks to you in a calm and friendly voice giving you solace and confidence to move forward. The theme of this session is 'Heartbreak'.

Transcript

Come here for a moment. You don't have to be strong right now. You don't have to pretend that you're okay. Tchuss! Be here with me. Just for a while. Take a slow breath in and let it out. Gently. Again. Inhale Exhale You're safe in this moment. I know it hurts. Not just a little. See you. The kind of pain that sits in your chest. Time doesn't really go away when you try to distract yourself. I get it. You care. You opened up your heart. And now everything's different. Quieted. I'm dear. And that's not easy to sit with. You don't need to understand everything that happened. You don't need to make sense of it today. You don't need closure right now. Let yourself feel it. Feel the sadness. Feel the confusion. Feel the missing. Feel the silence that they left behind You're allowed to feel all of it. And you're not alone in this right now. You don't have to force yourself to move on. But you can solve them. Just a little. With each breath. Not forgetting. That's amazing. Listen, You're good. On the pain. A little breathing room. A little space around it. That's enough for now. I know it hurts. I know it hurts, But. . . You're allowed to cry. You're allowed to release it all. I just want to tell you. Even if it doesn't feel like it right now. You are still home. Even in this heartbreak. You're still you. Your heart is hurting. But it is not broken beyond repair. You will feel joy again. Slowly. In your own time. No rush. It's okay. If you still think about them. It's okay. If you still missed them. That doesn't mean you're stuck. It just means you love. And that mattered. But you will not stay here forever. This feeling right now. It will eventually shift. Trust me. Even if you don't believe it right now. Something in you already knows it. Take a slow breath in. And let it go. Notice your body again. You are still here. You are still breathing. You're still moving forward. Even if it's stolen. And I just want to tell you that. You are lovable. You deserve the love that meets you halfway. You deserve someone who chooses you fully. Who never makes you doubt yourself. You deserve to be loved. Fold it. Completely. You are so beautiful. I hope you know that. And I am here with you. Every step of the way. You can come back here. Whenever you need. Just breathe. Just be. And when you're ready. Gently return.

Reviews

This was a unique and new experience for me, TL.
Man, do I wish those reassurances were available to me twenty years ago, when I was forced to leave my life partner at the time.
So sweet, and so wise beyond years.
Authentic, warm, heartfelt, and generous.
The layer of created sounds made for a far more powerful performance, so, fine choice there.
