Welcome To:
The Sound Healing Network - NYC Region
Monthly Sound Circle!

Come join us for an hour of meditative and soothing sound and music. The intention of our circle is to create a safe and relaxing space for you to use your voice and/or instruments to facilitate stress reduction and healing. Bring your own instruments, if desired. Each month we host a different S H N member facilitator who will state the theme and mood for that month's circle. Membership in S H N is a great way to promote your business or practice!

Ben Sheppard is our facilitator this month

Bio: Benyamin Sheppard is a composer, healing musician, harmonic alchemist, and intuitive visionary. Ben comes from a diverse musical background that includes many forms of classical, folk, and shamanic traditions from around the world combined with Jazz/blues, and esoteric electro-acoustic music. Ben is also a certified piano tuner/technician and researcher of the profound mathematic and mystical principals behind sound, vibration, and acoustics.

Ben's early technical training led him to a career in software engineering for about 25 years. In parallel to his technical career, Ben studied music in Boston and holds a Bachelor of music composition from the New England Conservatory.

Ben's metaphysical training includes: TM, Kriya Yoga, Pranayama, Multiphonic Chant, Reiki, and using music and sound for healing, meditation, and transformational work. Today, Ben uses an array of musical instruments from diverse ethnic traditions to compose and perform deeply inspired spiritually guided music.

This will be Ben's last time facilitating the Manhattan Circle, as he is moving out to the West Coast at the end of this month. Please join us for this special Circle as we send our friend Ben off with good vibes and soulful sounds
