Sometimes I think about how INCREDIBLE it is that we get to live in a world where technology allows us to connect with souls across the planet 🥹🌎✨

Through my work, I’ve had the honor of working closely with thousands of clients around the world and training hundreds of sound healers through Sound Healing Certification & Business Mentorship… with students from over 25 countries!!!

Last month, one of our beautiful TSHA earth angels, Skye Sheng , came to my sound bath in LA! Originally from China, she was living in Japan during her training. Even online, I could always feel her bright radiant light and getting to finally hug her in person made my heart feel like it was going to EXPLODE!! 😭💗

THIS is the magic of sharing your heart and shining your light. You never know how far it might reach!!

And it’s one of the reasons I’m SO passionate about teaching my students to share sound healing virtually

Many students join TSHA with no intention of ever leading a virtual sound bath. And I get it! There is something magical about gathering in person

But learning to share this work virtually opens doors you never could have imagined.

Even if you love leading intimate, in person sound baths… (beautiful!!) you never know when Google might call asking you to lead a virtual sound bath for their team (True story!)

Or when someone halfway around the world might become a client, a friend, or a member of your soul family, like Skye 🤍

When you share your heart, show up in service, and let your light shine, MAGIC HAPPENS ✨

Thank you, Skye, for coming to see me and for sharing your beautiful healing light with the world. I love you!!!

And to this incredible global community here on IG, I have some questions!!

🌎 Where in the world are you reading this from??

💗 Would you come to LA for a sound bath?!

✨ Should we organize more global meetups and retreats so we can finally hug in person?!

Tell me below! I want to hear from you! 💗

I am sending you so much love 💫 xx Susy

11/11 ✨ ANGEL ACTIVATION ✨ I could cry happy tears sharing this with you!!! 🥹🤍

On November 11th, I am returning to one of the most magical places I have ever experienced… the garden of Anima Mundi Apothecary on Rose in Venice

This garden holds SUCH a special place in my heart.

Before it was Anima Mundi, it was home to Ceremony Meditation, where I taught some of my very first public sound baths back in 2017.

Every Tuesday and Thursday night, we gathered here. We breathed. We cried. We laughed. We healed. We connected. And together, we experienced more magic and transformation than I ever could have imagined.
So much of the woman and teacher I am today was shaped in this garden. And so many of YOU became part of my life here🥹

To return nearly a decade later, to a place that holds so many memories and so much LOVE, feels like such a beautiful full-circle moment.

And on 11/11, of all days!!! ✨

I’ve felt connected to angels since I was a little girl, and 11/11 has always held a special place in my heart as a sacred portal of divine connection, alignment, and possibility.

On Wednesday, November 11th, from 7–8:30 PM, we’ll gather beneath the stars, sip beautiful butterfly pea and rose tea from ANIMA MUNDI HERBALS, connect with our angels through meditation and ceremony, and surrender into a deeply healing Crystal Alchemy Sound Bath.

An evening to open our hearts, reconnect with our highest guidance, and call in more LOVE, clarity, peace, and light for ourselves and our world.

If your soul is calling for a little magic, I would LOVE to share this experience with you.

Space is VERY limited, and I’m sharing this early because I want you to have the chance to be there.

Comment ANGEL and I’ll send you the link to RSVP! 

My heart is already so full thinking about being together in this sacred space again. I cannot wait to see you there!

I am sending you so so much love!!! 🤍✨ xx Susy

Sometimes the greatest miracle is getting to return to a place that once held so much pain… and experience it with an entirely different heart 🤍

Before I got sober, I was in a relationship with a polo player

I can’t tell you how many polo games I attended where I drank WAY too much. How many afternoons I barely remember. How many times I woke up carrying shame, anxiety, and regret

I never could have imagined that one day, I would return to the polo fields, year after year, SOBER. Not to escape my life, but to celebrate it. Not to create more wreckage to clean up, but to be of service

To be present. To connect. To feel loved, seen, and part of something bigger than myself 🙏🏼

And that is exactly what I got to experience at the beautiful Polo in the Palisades fundraiser last month🐎

It is such an honor to sponsor this event each year and contribute to the silent auction, supporting an incredible organization that helps women and their children find hope, healing, and a new beginning through recovery.

In honor of World Mental Health Day, I want to remind you that FREEDOM IS POSSIBLE!

I’ve lived through anxiety, alcoholism, addiction, and seasons when I truly didn’t think I could stay on this Earth. There was a period when I couldnt imagine ever feeling the peace I feel today.

Now I’m 10 years sober, but I didn’t get here alone.

It has taken discipline. Daily practice. Therapy. Sponsors. Teachers. Guides. Resources. And an incredible community of people who have loved me through it ALL.

It takes a village.

And today, I am deeply grateful to have the tools to live a life of sobriety, recovery, and serenity.

Whether you’re navigating postpartum anxiety or depression, PTSD, addiction, or struggles nobody else can see,please know that there is hope

You do not have to figure it all out alone.

Ask for help. Let yourself be supported. Keep going.


Your past does not have to determine your future.

I am living proof that the very places that once held your pain can become places of purpose, connection, and JOY!

We are so much stronger together.

You are loved. You are not alone. And I am sending you SO much love 🤍

My husband Mark leaves black socks everywhere.

Not once in a while… everywhere, all the time.

The bedroom floor. Under the couch. The car. Even the kids’ toy chest. Our home is basically a sock garden.
And it’s not just socks.

He once pulled over to grab something from his trunk… and drove away without the suitcase he’d just taken out.

I’ve picked him up from the airport and watched him realize his suitcase is still in the overhead bin 😅

He now has trackers on his wallet, keys, AND phone.

For years, this drove me crazy.
I tried to fix it. I tried to change him.

And all it really did was make me resentful… and make him wrong.

Then one day I realized… this is just Mark!!!

He is free spirited, unattached, and so present with whatever is next that he simply walks away from things. And somehow they always find their way back to him (literally, always!)

So now I pick up the socks with a smile and toss them in the wash. I buy him Tile trackers (and more black socks!) for Christmas.

Not because I gave up.

Because I stopped making the person I love wrong for being exactly who he is.

This week asked me to practice this on a deeper level.
Mark and I have had maybe 12 hours together between our trips.

Right now he’s in Zion on a men’s retreat, on World Mental Health Day, taking care of himself… and it’s just me and our two toddlers this weekend.

There was a time I would have kept score. Felt alone. Made him wrong for living his life.

Instead I’m choosing to celebrate him. He does the same for me. And our reunions are so much sweeter for it 🤍

So if you are the one holding it all together…
doing everything right on paper and still feeling like something in love is missing… this Libra New Moon + 10/10 portal is your invitation to begin again.

Not by finding a different person.
By choosing a different way of loving the one in front of you.
You cannot change how someone else loves.
But you can always choose the love YOU bring ✨

Comment LOVE and I’ll send you my FREE New Beginning Sound Bath to help you release the old and open your heart 🌑🤍

Send this to someone you love!!

I used to think purpose was something you had to FIND…

Like there was one perfect path, one calling, one answer you were supposed to figure out…

But now I know that purpose is so much simpler than that

Purpose is using what you have been given to serve someone else:

Your story.
Your gifts.
Your voice.
Your presence.
Your love.
Even the things you had to learn the hard way.

None of it is just for you.

We need each other 🤍

And sometimes the fastest way back to yourself is to stop obsessing over what your purpose is and ask:

Who can I love today?
Who can I help?
How can I serve?

You don’t have to change the whole world.

You can change someone’s world.

And maybe that is the purpose 🤍

I felt this so deeply today after leading the most beautiful sound bath for ALO Wellness Club at 1 Hotel West Hollywood

A room full of people in the middle of the day on a Tuesday choosing to pause together. Breathe together. Receive together.

There is something so powerful about community… about remembering that healing doesn’t always have to happen alone.

I left with such a full heart and so much gratitude for the privilege of doing this work 🥹🙏🏼

To gather people.
To create space.
To serve.
To remind someone, even for a moment, that they are not alone.

This is the work!

And I am so incredibly grateful I get to do it 🤍

This morning I got up at 5am to do qigong at sunrise.

The night before - I went to bed later than I planned… I was tired… and when my alarm went off, I considered cancelling.

But I asked myself one question:

What would make me feel most proud of myself?

Going.

It was clear.

So I went!

And because I did, I got to move and meditate beside a waterfall in the desert. I watched a spectacular sunrise. I experienced something completely new. And I felt proud of myself before most people were even awake.

And I also met incredible new friends… including a woman from Colorado who happens to be the AUNT of my high school English teacher (in CT!!)

What are the chances?!?

I LOVE moments like this.

Because they feel like little winks from the universe saying:

Yes.
Keep going.
You are on the right path.

I really believe that when you start making decisions as your highest self…your future self… the version of you that makes your SOUL proud… life starts meeting you there.

You are creating your reality with your energy.

Everything is vibrating.
Matter is energy.
Energy precedes form.

And you cannot think your way into a new life. You have to act your way into a new way of thinking. And that shift will lead you to the life you desire.

Do something different.
Try something new.
Make the choice your future self would make.

Stop living in the energy of the life you are ready to leave behind.

Start practicing the energy of the life you are here to live.

Then watch what begins to meet you there 🤍

I feel so happy right now.

Not because everything is perfect…

But because this past year taught me deeply to remember how much power we actually have in the way we choose to experience our lives.

And I want to remind you of that too.

You get to choose.

You get to choose what you focus on.
You get to choose what you give your energy to.
You get to choose the story you tell yourself.
You get to choose to notice what is working.
What is beautiful.
What is growing.
What is already so, so good.

Dont to wait for life to become perfect before you enjoy it

You are here to LIVE it!

To laugh.
To love.
To be present.
To savor the tiny moments.
To celebrate what is working.
To embrace challenges with curiosity.
To trust what is unfolding.
To learn the lessons and still let yourself have FUN along the way.

And even when you cannot control the circumstances around you, you can still choose the way you meet them.

You can choose peace and faith.
You can choose possibility.
You can choose gratitude.
You can choose openness and curiosity.
You can choose to believe there is something beautiful unfolding here… even when you can’t see what it is quite yet

That choice shifts everything.

And you know what?

I want October to be INCREDIBLE. And I have decided that it will be!

I want you to decide that too.

Decide that this month gets to be joyful.
Decide that it gets to be expansive.
Decide that you are going to notice the blessings.
Decide that you are going to show up for your own life.
Decide that you are going to stop rushing through the days and actually ENJOY them.

Make the plans.
Take the walk.
Play the music.
Call the friend.
Light the candle.
Go somewhere beautiful.
Laugh louder.
Love harder.
Be here.

Your life is happening right now… and you are so powerful!!

You get to choose how you experience it.

So choose joy.
Choose peace.
Choose presence.
Choose the lesson.
Choose the blessing.
Choose to believe that something amazing can happen.

Choose to make October the best month ever.

Because you can! 🤍 I love you!! xx Susy

YOU ARE THE VESSEL

Not the crystals.
Not the bowls.
Not the teacher.
Not the method.
Not the next certification.
Not the thing you think you still need to find outside of yourself.

You.

Everything you need is already within you

You are a living, breathing, vibrating energetic being. You are constantly receiving information. Constantly being guided. Constantly in conversation with life.

The question is not “am I being guided?”

You are!

The question is: Can you hear it?

Because sometimes your vessel is so full of noise that you cannot hear the whisper underneath it

Other people’s opinions…
Old stories…
Fear…
Pressure…
Comparison…
The version of you that learned to perform instead of feel.
The need to know exactly HOW everything is going to work out before you trust what you already know.

Clear it.

Get quiet enough to hear yourself again.

Breathe.
Hum.
Move your body.
Cry.
Pray.
Meditate.
Go outside.
Turn your phone off.
Tell the truth.
Say the thing you keep swallowing.

You do not need to become more spiritual.

You need to become more available.

Available to your own intuition
Available to your body
Available to God
Available to the life that is already trying to move through you

Your job is not to control the river.
Your job is to stop building dams.

And I need you to hear me on this:

You already know more than you think you know.

That quiet feeling in your body?
That little nudge you keep dismissing?
That thing you know you need to say, change, release, begin?

That’s it!

You are the vessel.

Clear the noise.
Trust what comes through.
And then have the courage to actually live like you heard it 🤍
