Nature-based sound therapy in Huntsville, Alabama.

Meet Shaleesa

Shaleesa Bynum is a Certified Sound Healer and the creator of r e s t: Resonant Earth Sound Therapy.

My personal sound healing journey began in 2020 as a response to my own struggles with C-PTSD, insomnia, anxiety, and panic attacks—conditions that traditional medicine failed to heal. After just a few months of 1:1 sound therapy sessions, I was off all eight of my prescriptions drugs with the guidance of my medical providers. Five years later, I remain medication free, clinically cleared from C-PTSD, and the panic attacks and sleepless nights that once shaped my daily life cease to exist.

While I can't make promises about your own journey, mine revealed that sound healing is a forgotten treasure—a timeless practice that can profoundly support healing and transformation when offered by trained professionals. Alongside living in alignment with Nature, sound therapy became an integral part of my own healing journey and ignited a deep passion for helping others cultivate their own physical, emotional, and energetic breakthroughs.

With deep reverence for nature-focused practices, I craft a unique sonic journey that connects participants to the cosmic vibrations of quartz crystal sound bowls while rooting you deeply into the natural intelligence of the Earth. My transformative approach blends sound healing, music theory, aromatherapy, plant medicine, and indigenous ecological wisdom—integrating instruments like Native American Flutes, Charcapas (leaf rattles), seed chimes, and other ancestral instruments inspired by traditions that have honored sound as medicine for centuries. Together, these elements invite us to soften, restore balance, and reattune to our authentic nature through the living voice of the Earth.

If you’re ready to slow down and gently reconnect with yourself and Mother Earth, make some time tor e s t with me” at my next sound bath!

  • "I worked with Shaleesa on several occasions to combine our talents for classes and her sound baths are next level! Her flute was such an added surprise and great bonus to bring us back down to Earth after the sound bowl journey. Her voice is so soothing and her words to honor and recognize the former inhabitants of our land were such a great added touch. Highly recommend!"
