SOUND BATH & TEA CEREMONY
This offering is a meditative and heart-opening experience with sound and tea. We’ll begin with a guided meditation to honour tea as a living plant spirit, followed by a soothing gong and Koshi chime sound bath to calm the nervous system and awaken the senses.
Next, we move into a silent tea ceremony using the ancient ‘Leaves in a Bowl’ method, placing whole tea leaves in a bowl and steeping them in water to connect deeply with the plant.
We’ll share an organic oolong tea from Taiwan, known for its grounding and calming qualities. Prepared with spring water over a small flame, this sustainably sourced tea offers a warm and comforting presence. You’re invited to rest, receive, and savour each bowl in stillness. This practice offers space for presence, connection, and quiet reflection.
Sound Bath & Tea Ceremonies are held at Kenkō Studios, a peaceful wellness centre located at 40 Saint Benedicts Street, Eden Terrace, Auckland.
Tea, yoga mats, and bolsters are provided. Please wear warm, comfortable clothing and bring a cushion, blanket, and water bottle.

“I went to my first sound bath with Jess on Sunday. At first, my mind was racing, but once I allowed myself to relax and be open, I felt the vibrations move through my body. After the session, I had an emotional release but also felt a deep sense of peace, knowing it was just energy that needed to move. Thank you to Jess for creating such a calm, welcoming space. I’ll definitely be coming back.” — Anika
“Jess takes you on the most beautiful journey through her sound baths. She eases you into your body using sound and breath, allowing you to relax on a deeper level. Her Reiki energy is warm and inviting. For me, the benefits have been both physical and emotional. Physically, my body is able to rest more quickly, and my sleep has improved massively. Emotionally, I feel grounded and balanced after a class with Jess. I've noticed I am less anxious in the days following a class. I highly recommend Jess and have taken many friends and family along to her classes so they can also benefit from her sound healing.” — Amy
“I discovered the joy of Jess’s sound baths about three months ago. Each week I look forward to her classes as they are an absolute tonic for the nervous system. I come away feeling grounded, calm and refreshed. Jess is a kind, gentle soul and all her personal touches (smoke cleansing, delightful Koshi chimes, and warm tea) make this an experience not to be missed.” — Erica
“Everyone experiences sound differently, and for me, it’s a beautifully stimulating experience where my mind becomes very clear and creative. As soon as you enter the space, Jess welcomes you with her gentle presence, making you feel comfortable from the start. Her soothing voice guides you deeply within, and you can feel her Reiki-infused healing as you drop deeper into the sound. I can’t wait to do more classes; it’s always a pleasure.” — Maegan
