I never really noticed how many sounds we absorb every single day—until I started going to Tamara.

 

Planes overhead. The sharp wail of an ambulance in the distance. The mechanical hum of a vacuum cleaner. Someone’s ringtone slicing through a quiet room.

 

We’re constantly surrounded by noise, but funnily enough, it wasn’t until I sat—still—in Tamara’s calm, welcoming space that I realised how little of that sound actually reaches me in a meaningful way.

 

But I do hear what she plays during our sessions.

 

It’s not quite music, and it’s definitely not silence.

 

It feels like something in between—low, grounding, almost elemental.

 

These are sounds that feel more like textures than tones.

 

They wrap around you gently, like warm water filling a bath. But it’s not a bath for the body—it’s for the nervous system.

 

You don’t notice the shift at first. You just start breathing a bit deeper. Your jaw loosens. The frantic thoughts in your headstart to soften at the edges. Then, somewhere in that not-quite-awake, not-quite-asleep space, something goes into place.

 

Tamara’s sessions are guided, but never forceful.

 

She uses hypnotherapy in a way that feels gentle and deeply respectful. It’s more like a quiet journey inward.

 

She guides you to that floaty space where your conscious mind takes a backseat, and your subconscious finally gets a chance to speak—or at least listen.

 

For me, these sessions are a form of “reset”, and she actually calls it that. 

 

They don’t just relax me. I leave feeling lighter, more present, more able to cope. It’s not just that my stress levels drop; it’s that my whole way of responding to stress starts to shift. And I’ve come to understand that this is partly because of those sounds.

 

Low-frequency sound—sometimes in the form of binaural beats or tones around 432 Hz— is said to have a calming effect on the brain and body. There’s a science to it. These sounds help guide your brain into a theta-wave state – drifting off but still kind of aware of what’s around you. I have heard some people describe it as your brain being on a comfy cloud.

 

All of this is associated with deep relaxation, meditation, and creativity. It is between sleeping and waking, where old thought loops can be interrupted and new, healthier patterns can, hopefully, start to form.

 

Apparently, this isn’t new.

 

Sound has been used in healing practices for centuries, from ancient chanting to temple gongs.

 

But we’re only now beginning to understand it from a neurological point of view.

 

Is it possible that your body listens just as much as your ears do?

 

What I like about Tamara’s approach is that she combines both the old and the new—the wisdom of traditional therapeutic techniques with evidence-based approaches that engage both brain and body. And for someone like me, a lawyer, who doesn’t always find it easy to switch off, it’s become a necessary part of my emotional hygiene. Like brushing teeth. Only deeper.

 

If you’re feeling burnt out, anxious, disconnected, or just plain wired from life, I can’t recommend it enough.

 

There’s something powerful in being held—not physically, but energetically—by sound and stillness.

 

Tamara creates a space where healing doesn’t feel like work.

Hypnotherapy guides you into a deeply relaxed state where your subconscious is more open to gentle suggestions. This can help reframe negative thoughts, reduce anxiety, and create lasting changes in how you react to stress. Apparently it has been shown to lower cortisol levels, heart rate, and muscle tension.

 

Low-frequency sounds (like binaural beats or vibroacoustic therapy) can activate your parasympathetic nervous system—the part responsible for relaxation. These sounds are linked to improved heart rate variability and a deeper sense of calm.

 

And it’s not just anecdotal—there’s growing scientific evidence supporting this. Clinical studies and meta-analyses have found that both hypnotherapy and low-frequency sound can help with stress, anxiety, emotional balance, and even physical health outcomes.
