About Stephanie Bowman
I got into sound baths because I was exhausted.
I’m Stephanie Bowman, founder of The Mindful Modern, The Mindful Institute, and Modern Sound Co. I lead sound experiences, train sound practitioners, and mentor people who want to build a business around their work.
How it started
The weekends were doing a lot of heavy lifting.
I was working in film and TV, doing 14–16-hour days, five days a week. I’d spend the weekend trying to catch up on sleep, laundry, and every relationship I’d neglected since Monday. Very efficient system, obviously.
I was getting sick all the time. I was injured, mentally drained, and had very little left for the people I cared about. I kept thinking I’d catch up eventually. Eventually was taking its sweet time.
Then I started going to sound baths on the weekends. I wanted an hour where nobody needed anything from me. What surprised me was how I felt afterwards. My head was clearer. I felt more like myself. And I wanted to understand why.
How I work
You can take this work seriously without taking yourself too seriously.
I care about the science of sound, what stress feels like in the body, and how to lead a session that makes sense to someone who’s never been to one. You can be curious, sceptical, or mainly excited to lie down. All very reasonable.
Whether I’m teaching students to play their first bowls or leading a team that came straight from a meeting, I’ll explain what we’re doing and what to expect. Then we’ll get on with it.
