HEALING
What is sound healing?
Sound is vibration — waves moving through air, water, and the tissues of your body. When those vibrations are offered with intention, rhythm, and care, they can help your nervous system remember what it feels like to soften and rest.
Sound healing uses instruments like crystal singing bowls, chimes, drums, and voice to create a cocoon of resonance around you. As your brainwaves slow and your body relaxes, your system can shift out of “fight or flight” and into a state of deep restoration and self-healing.
Meet your sound healer in the DMV
I’m Johanna Olivas, the heart behind Luna Serenity and the Luna Sound Lounge in Bethesda, Maryland. I am a 500-hour Registered Yoga Teacher, certified meditation teacher, sound healer, and energy worker who has guided thousands of people through sound baths, meditation, and rest practices across Washington, DC, Maryland, and Virginia and virtually online.
As a first-generation Latina, mother, and space holder, my work is anchored in ancestral wisdom, trauma-aware care, and a deep commitment to creating inclusive, welcoming spaces — especially for BIPOC communities and those who are often left out of traditional wellness rooms.
From intimate one-on-one sessions in the Luna Sound Lounge to large-scale experiences at museums, nonprofits, yoga studios, and retreats, I’m here to help you Experience a Vibrational Shift and come home to yourself.
What to expect in a sound bath
In a typical sound bath, you’ll arrive, settle onto a cozy mat with blankets and props, and be guided through a brief grounding meditation. Then, I’ll begin to play a curated blend of crystal singing bowls, chimes, drum, and other instruments designed to support relaxation and energetic balance.
You’ll spend most of the session lying down or sitting comfortably with your eyes closed, allowing the sound to gently wash over you.
Many people describe feeling:
-
Deeply relaxed and “lighter” in their bodies
-
More grounded and present
-
Clearer and more spacious in their minds
-
Reconnected to their intuition and inner wisdom
Sound healing experiences are always invitational — you’re encouraged to listen to your body, rest, and receive exactly what you need that day.

BENEFITS OF SOUND HEALING
While sound healing is not a replacement for medical or mental health care, many people find it to be a powerful complement to therapy, bodywork, and other healing practices.
Sound baths and sound healing sessions may support you in:
-
Easing stress and everyday overwhelm
-
Soothing anxiety and calming a busy mind
-
Supporting deeper, more restful sleep
-
Releasing physical tension and feeling more at ease in your body
-
Gently processing emotions and life transitions
-
Feeling more grounded, present, and connected to yourself
-
Creating regular pockets of rest in a fast-paced life
You might leave a session feeling like you’ve just woken up from the best nap of your life — clear, nourished, and ready to re-enter the world at your own pace.
