Embark on a transformative journey with our series of sound baths, each held under the Celtic moon in the beautiful Anglican Chapel at Arnos Vale. Drawing inspiration from ancient Celtic lore and the unique energies of trees, these experiences offer a blend of sound, nature, and tradition.
As the Spring Equinox approaches, nature undergoes a profound transformation. The Alder, flourishing on riverbanks, stands as a symbol of balance, bridging heaven and earth. This period, marked by the awakening of the earth, heralds a time of personal and spiritual growth.
During this time, our ancestors engaged in rituals and embraced the changing season, a period ripe for spiritual decisions and the nurturing of intuitive abilities. The Alder, with its flowers and twigs used in Faerie magic, represents a conduit to these mystical energies.
Gongs, Tibetan singing bowls, crystal singing bowls, drums and other instruments will guide you into a relaxed, meditative state where you can access your theta consciousness. Here, profound insights can occur, and the body's natural healing systems activate.
Includes home-made raw, vegan, organic energy balls made with ceremonial grade cacao, to help bring you back to Earth.

Once again really enjoyed the session. Ruth and Brillo had even more new sounds which took you on your own personal journey.
The raw balls at the end were amazing! Would love the recipe! Deeply intense experience which I wasn't expecting but felt a sense of peace and calm afterwards. Thank you!
A welcoming space where you felt cared for, nourished and at ease. A wonderful experience and one which we will be back for!
An amazing experience thoroughly enjoyed it.
Wonderful unique experience, Ruth and Brillo are brilliant hosts and fabulous musicians. An uplifting, grounding and energising experience.
Bliss for an hour ! Indulge your mind and body 🤩❤️
This was such a wonderful experience: an atmospheric venue, an immersive experience and exactly what I needed to take stock, reflect and switch into more of a 'being' mode. Thank you so much, I'll be back.
A magical evening full of healing and relaxation. A beautiful location and fantastic hosts.
A very immersive experience, invoking a lot of emotion as the sounds changed, it was commented I looked younger when I got home so I guess it was very relaxing. I've avoided too much Screen Time since, not least as because it made me a bit dizzy, so the effects have lasted well. Look forward to doing more when I see them.
Really special
Once again such a wonderful experience. Thank you.
This session we were treated to lots of beautiful new sounds and instruments that I have never heard before which sounded amazing!
I particularly enjoyed hearing the flutes and drums.
Brillos lovely voice is always something I always look forward to. As I find it very comforting and healing. X
Relaxing and enjoyable. The sounds were beautiful.
Another fantastic sound bath from starshine roots! My brain felt thoroughly cleansed!
Another great session. This location has fantastic acoustics.
Beautifully immersive experience. Ruth & Brillo are wonderful hosts, the chapel has perfect acoustics for the cosmic sound journey, there were so many layers of instruments to enjoy
An enlightening journey. Lovely people. I highly recommend
Really lovely experience
This was a deeply-immersive, full-body experience that cleansed and nurtured my mind and body.
Was an amazing experience
Felt welcomed into the space, and found the experience to be relaxing and enjoyable.
Was like nothing I had experienced before! Ruth was a wonderful host that made me feel very welcome, comfortable and relaxed. Everything was explained before it happened :) Would definitely recommend and I’ll be back.
Really what I needed felt the affect for a good few day brilliant
Relaxing, gentle experience. Felt really well cared for. Came away grounded and peaceful.
beautifully hosted.
I booked place for my husband and myself as a shared Valentines gift. We both found the experience left us with an overwhelming feeling of release and wellbeing. To be totally immersed in healing vibrations was a letting go of the stress in our world. We would thoroughly recommend this experience.
Lovely relaxing evening with great hosts
Amazing, thank you.
One of the most beautiful and unique experiences I have had the pleasure to share

A very relaxing experience. Perfect for the end of the week. Thanks!
A positive experience which helped to calm my mind and thoughts. Enjoyed the variety of vocal and instrumental sounds and will definitely be booking this class again.

Powerful, stunning, beautiful, would definitely come again and recommend to others xx
The hosts were so lovely and extremely talented xx
Very immersive experience
First experience of a sound bath and I enjoyed it. Would go again (and take more padding next time!)
The facilitator has such a lovely voice! They seemed experienced and passionate about what they do and made it safe and welcoming. Thank you
A powerful and affecting experience - unlike anything I've ever done but it won't be the last time!
This is the second event I’ve been to with Starshine Roots and I can’t praise them enough. It’s an unbelievably relaxing experience, so well put together and considered. Highly recommended.
This was one of the coolest things I’ve done in Bristol. It was different to anything I’ve experienced before. So relaxing but also creative and intense at times. I really felt like I went on a journey! I didn’t expect to experience much from sound. But I was wrong! My whole body came alive. I would
Definitely recommend to anyone interested.
This was my first sound bath so I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. Ruth and Brillo were so welcoming and open and passionate about what they do. It was an amazing and deep experience and I’ll definitely be going along again.
So relaxing and amazing
I heard whales and elephants and so many other wondrous sounds. It was so easy to empty my mind and open myself up to meditation, thank you.
Such a relaxing and profound experience. Would book again! Thank you
The sounds were imaginative and evocative, with very genuine and welcoming hosts.
Brillo is a songwriter, composer, and teacher.
"I mostly lived on a mountain on my own from my late teens, until my late 20’s. I learned a lot about the principles of life from nature and my deep dives into music and creativity. For a long time, I saw music and songwriting more as a coping mechanism. I didn't realise at the time that I was learning to heal personal trauma. Though healing is an ongoing thing, I now use what I've learned to support others."
Ruth is a qualified sound therapist and writer.
“After suffering from chronic pain for 13 years beforehand, my drum unintentionally became the antidote to my pain. An accidental gong bath, revealed to me that sound was my calling. Drumming, sound and movement have been incredibly healing for me and I love supporting people to delve into their inner worlds; to discover the wisdom that already exists within."
