    Creating Joy with Rachel Nelson of Conscious Soundscapes in Alberta, Canada

    In the "Creating Joy with Conscious Soundscapes" feature on the We Play Well Together blog, we dive into how thoughtfully crafted sound environments can be a source of joy and wellness in our lives.

    A carefully chosen soundscape can have on transformative experience in our personal spaces and create relaxation and creativity.

    Instruments like the Koshi Chimes and Monolina Monochords are spotlighted for their ability to create these immersive, soothing auditory experiences.

    The article is packed with expert insights and actionable advice, guiding us on how to weave our own soundscapes filled with mindfulness and positive vibes. It really brings home the idea that sound has a profound ability to enrich our daily experiences, echoing the site's dedication to fostering a sense of harmony and well-being through music.

  • What happens when Women Handpan in the Wild?

    What happens when Women Handpan in the Wild?

    Last May, we were thrilled to participate in the inaugural US-based Women's Handpan Gathering, Super Bloom, nestled in New York's Catskill Mountains. Celebrating this unique assembly, we crafted a 9-minute highlight reel showcasing the joy and connections formed at this empowering event.

    Super Bloom welcomes all who identify as women, offering a space for learning, rejuvenation, and music-making, with a special invitation for others to witness this unity through our video.

    This year, we're excited to return, offering amazing prizes and an array of We Play Well Together instruments for participants to explore. Super Bloom stands as a testament to the strength and creativity of women united by music, set against a backdrop of nature, with a program designed for relaxation, exploration, and shared musical experiences.
