In this episode I interview John Minks who is a sound therapist with over 17 years of experience in exploring the profound healing powers of sound. His deep understanding of music allows him to create harmonized soundscapes, blending traditional sound healing instruments with digital synthesizers to craft immersive, cosmic sound journeys.

As the founder of Deep Space Mallets, John creates custom mallets for gongs, singing bowls, and frame drums, ensuring each piece contributes to the therapeutic sound experience. He regularly conducts sound, yoga, and meditation retreats and travels across the United States offering transformative sound therapy sessions. Through his work, John Minks continues to expand the boundaries of sound healing, providing profound experiences for those seeking relaxation, mental clarity, and inner peace.
