    Sounds Heal Podcast with Tom Kenyon and Natalie Brown
    Apr 7 2026
    Tom Kenyon is a sound practitioner, musician, author, and psychotherapist whose work explores the intersection of sound, consciousness, and human neurophysiology. He holds a master’s degree in psychological counseling and spent over a decade in private clinical practice before shifting his focus toward psychoacoustics and the effects of sound on the nervous system and perception. In 1983, he founded Acoustic Brain Research (ABR), an organization dedicated to studying how sound, music, and language influence brain states, creativity, and psychological transformation. His early work combined clinical psychology with emerging research in neuro-linguistic programming, hypnosis, and auditory entrainment, which later became the foundation for his sound-based meditation work. Over time, Kenyon developed a large body of recordings, teachings, and live workshops centered on the use of voice, toning, and psychoacoustic sound as tools for shifting awareness and facilitating inner experience. His work expanded into writings and publications on sound, consciousness, and perception, including explorations of interdimensional awareness and what he describes as expanded states of cognition accessed through acoustic entrainment. He is the author of Brain States, Mind Thieves, and co-author of The Hathor Material, which introduced a body of channeled teachings he reports receiving from non-physical intelligences known as the Hathors. His published work extends beyond these core titles to include additional books and co-authored works within his broader body of psychoacoustic and consciousness-based teachings. His work is often integrated into intensive seminars and experiential sound journeys offered internationally. https://tomkenyon.com/ Provided by and with permission from Tom Kenyon, this episode features musical excerpts throughout the conversation. The Cave of Altruin is a Hathor track created entirely from Tom Kenyon’s voice through multitracking. At the end of the episode, you’ll also hear the full piece Hymn to the Earth, which offers an example of his use of overtones within composition.

    John Minks is a gifted musician with over 15 years of exploring and studying the healing power of sound. John’s first experience with sound healing was in Amsterdam in 2006. Since then, his tone quest has taken him from the Brazilian rainforest to the islands of Hawai’i and beyond. He began his study of the didgeridoo while in the jungles of Brazil in 2007. John has also studied guitar for the past 10 years and has extensive experience in its healing power with plant medicines. John has attended and spoken at Sage Sound Academy and has attended gong workshops with Don Conreaux and 9 Ways Academy. John has compiled his array of knowledge to offer a truly unique sound experience. More than a sound bath, his sessions are more of a molecular massage with sound. Clients are taken on an astral journey using a mix of indigenous and modern instruments. John offers sound baths at a variety of locations in the Hudson Valley and New York City. In addition to the didgeridoo and gong, John’s instruments include chimes, flutes, khomus, Tibetan singing bowls, shruti box, handpan, tuning forks, among others. https://deepspacesound.life/ https://www.instagram.com/deep_space_sound/ Natalie Brown, host of Sounds Heal Podcast: http://www.soundshealstudio.com http://www.facebook.com/soundshealstudio http://www.instagram.com/nataliebrownsoundsheal http://www.youtube.com/soundshealstudio email: soundshealstudio@gmail.com Music by Natalie Brown, Hope & Heart http://www.youtu.be/hZPx6zJX6yA
