Shannon Rose Scott

Sound Alchemist, Yogi Rebel, and Creative Visionary

Sound Healing Practitioner, Sanskrit Mantra Teacher, and Creator of Sound Wisdom

Over the years, I’ve cultivated a unique approach to sound healing that blends ancient wisdom with modern insights, drawing on my background in expressive arts therapy, theatre, music, meditation and yoga. I’ve developed a signature Sound Wisdom methodology that weaves together yogic philosophy, chakra work, and the koshas, guiding students and clients to experience profound transformation—from physical grounding to emotional release and spiritual awakening.

My Philosophy

At the heart of my work is the belief that sound is the original yoga, the first meditation, and the essence of creation itself. Every sound carries a vibration that can heal, transform, and inspire. Through instruments like gongs, singing bowls, tuning forks, and frame drums, I help people explore their inner worlds, release what no longer serves them, and embrace their full potential.  Everything begins with vibration—and when we consciously work with sound, we connect with the rhythm of life in a profound and transformative way.

My teaching is rooted in trust, embodiment, flow, and relationship. Whether leading private sound healing sessions, teaching transformative trainings, or writing about the alchemy of sound, I aim to empower others to tune into their unique vibration and live in harmony with their authentic purpose.

For me, sound healing isn’t just about the instruments; it’s about creating meaningful experiences that help people feel empowered, embodied, and connected to their authentic selves. Whether it’s through the resonant tones of a gong, the meditative hum of a mantra, or the rhythmic pulse of a drum, I see Sacred Sound as a way to honor your unique spirit and tune into your life’s purpose.

My Journey: From Imperfection to Transformation

Here’s the truth: I’m far from perfect. In fact, it’s my imperfections—and my journey of embracing them—that led me to this work. My work is deeply personal because I’ve walked the path of healing and transformation myself.  I’ve wrestled with depression, anxiety, and the nagging sense that I wasn’t living the life I was meant to. I’ve felt the weight of self-doubt and the sting of setbacks. But through all of that, one thing has been constant: the healing power of sound. Through sound, yoga, and travel, I found not only healing but a passion for helping others discover their own path to joy and fulfillment.

Sacred Sound has been my anchor, my guide, and my way forward. It’s taught me to pause, to listen deeply, and to trust that I already have what I need to heal and grow. It has also reminded me that healing isn’t about striving for perfection; it’s about embracing who you are, imperfections and all, and learning to flow with life’s rhythms.

Now, I’m passionate about sharing these tools and insights with others. Because if I’ve learned anything, it’s that we all have the capacity to heal ourselves—but we do need practical tools - and it starts with tuning into the vibrations of our bodies, minds, and souls.

What I Offer

Through my teachings, I aim to make Sacred Sound accessible, transformative, and maybe even a little rebellious. Here’s what you can expect when you work with me:

1. Sound Healing Trainings: Comprehensive, in-depth programs (self-paced or live) where you’ll learn to play sacred instruments like gongs, singing bowls, tuning forks, and frame drums; as well as learn how to use your own powerful voice through the tool and technology of Sanskrit Mantra.  My Sound Wisdom methodology integrates ancient yogic philosophy, chakra work, and energy anatomy, helping you create profound experiences for yourself and others.

2. Private and Group Sound Sessions: Whether it’s a one-on-one sound massage or tarot session, a group sound bath, or a custom session tailored to your needs, I offer experiences that support emotional release, stress reduction, and spiritual alignment.

3. Books, Courses, and Creative Content: Books, blogs, and courses that bridge the science, history, and spirituality of sound with relatable, real-life stories and practical techniques. I write, teach, and create with the intention of making sound healing practical, approachable, and deeply inspiring. My offerings include everything from practical how-to guides to personal stories that highlight the transformative power of sound.

Why Work With Me?

I’m not just a teacher—I’m a guide who walks alongside you on your journey. I’ve created programs that meet you where you are, whether you’re a curious beginner or a seasoned practitioner. My trainings are as much about practical skills as they are about fostering your personal growth and creativity.

Above all, I aim to make sound healing accessible, transformative, and maybe even a little rebellious. Because healing isn’t about fitting into a box—it’s about breaking free and creating a life that resonates with your soul.

I bring a unique blend of professional expertise and personal experience to my work. With a background in expressive arts therapy, child and youth work, theatre, music, and yoga, I’ve spent years exploring the intersection of creativity, spirituality, and healing. I’ve also walked the path of transformation myself, which means I understand what it’s like to feel stuck, disconnected, or uncertain about the way forward.

My teaching style is a mix of grounded practicality and expansive possibility. I’ll show you how to work with sound to create real, tangible change in your life—but I’ll also encourage you to think outside the box, trust your intuition, and explore what Sacred Sound means to you.

Whether you’re here to learn, heal, or simply explore, my goal is to empower you to trust yourself, tune into your unique vibration, and create a life that resonates with your soul.

My Journey in Images: Trainings, Travels, and Transformations

Sound healing has been my passport to an incredible journey—one that has unfolded in classrooms, ashrams, festivals, and sacred sites across the globe. Along the way, I’ve accumulated over 3,000 hours of training in yoga, sound healing, expressive arts, music, and meditation, learning from master teachers and immersing myself in rich, diverse traditions.

This journey includes advanced yoga teacher certifications in Hatha, Vinyasa, Kriya, Restorative, Yin, Pre/Postnatal, and Sanskrit Mantra practices, alongside 800+ hours of sound healing mastery. I’ve also explored the transformative power of expressive arts and meditation techniques, weaving these disciplines into a unique and holistic approach.

From singing with my dad and family as a child to studying theater in school, from joyful piano and flute lessons growing up to leading sound baths in sacred spaces, every chapter of my life has been a song of connection and creativity. Whether in the stillness of Vipassana retreats, the vibrant colors of the Holi Festival in India, or the energetic flow of a sound bath in Colombia, each experience has deepened my understanding of how sound, movement, and connection transform lives.

These experiences have allowed me to bridge the sacred with the playful, creating practices that are as effective as they are creative. The photos below capture the heart of this journey—from the sacred rivers of India to creative classrooms in Canada, from the mountains of Colombia to festivals that pulse with life. Each moment represents more than just a certification or training—it’s a story of growth, connection, and transformation.

I invite you to explore just a few of these moments and the vibrant, cultural tapestry that inspires my work today. These photos represent more than just trainings—they tell the story of how I’ve come to see sound as a bridge between the sacred and the playful, the personal and the universal. From the reverberations of a gong at a festival to the serene tones of a singing bowl in Colombia, every moment has shaped the way I approach sound healing today.

My journey is ongoing, and I’m grateful for the teachers, traditions, and travels that continue to inspire my work. As you explore these images, I hope you’ll feel the same resonance that I do—one that reminds us of the beauty of sound, connection, and the infinite possibilities of growth.

Let’s tune in and resonate wide,
