Therapeutic Sound & ASMR-Informed Sessions
Sessions built around live or curated sound, gentle ASMR-style elements, and focused attention to help regulate the nervous system and access emotional content.
These offerings can support sleep, stress reduction, emotional processing, and spiritual exploration.
Coming SoonPersonaWave: Personalized Therapeutic Soundscape Technology
Supporting Therapeutic Sound & ASMR-Informed Sessions at Authentic P.A.S.T.
PersonaWave is a proprietary, specialized soundscape generation system designed to create deeply personalized audio experiences for therapeutic use. Through a comprehensive intake questionnaire, each client's unique preferences, sensitivities, and therapeutic goals are captured and transformed into custom soundscape sessions that support nervous system regulation and emotional processing.
How It Works
Before your first session, you'll complete a detailed intake questionnaire covering:
- Therapeutic Goals — Whether you're seeking support for trauma stabilization, anxiety reduction, sleep improvement, emotional regulation, or enhanced focus
- Sound Preferences — Your affinity for different musical styles (ambient piano, gentle strings, drones, nature-integrated compositions) and nature sounds (rain, ocean waves, forest ambience, crackling fire)
- ASMR Responsiveness — Your experience with and openness to gentle ASMR-style elements such as soft tapping, page turning, fabric rustling, or rain on a window
- Sound Sensitivities — Any triggers to avoid, hearing considerations, or sounds that feel uncomfortable
- Pacing Preferences — How you prefer sessions to unfold—gradual descent into relaxation, wave-like patterns, or deep immersion followed by gentle uplift
What Makes Each Session Unique
PersonaWave uses your responses to select and arrange multiple therapeutic elements:
- Layered Soundscapes — Ambient music, nature sounds, and textural elements are carefully combined with attention to complexity limits, ensuring the experience never becomes overwhelming
- ASMR Integration — When appropriate and welcomed, subtle ASMR-style sounds are woven into the session to enhance relaxation response
- Brainwave Support — Optional binaural beats or isochronic tones gently guide the nervous system toward targeted states (alpha for calm alertness, theta for deep relaxation, delta for sleep threshold)
- Spoken Affirmations — Short, carefully selected affirmations rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) principles, matching your preferred themes (safety, self-compassion, grounding, resilience) and delivery style, placed at therapeutic moments throughout the session. For a deeper sense of personal connection, you may opt to have these affirmations delivered in your own voice through secure voice cloning technology — hearing words of acceptance and encouragement in a voice you already trust
- Phase-Based Structure — Each session follows a therapeutic roadmap with distinct phases—arrival and grounding, deep regulation, resourcing or integration, and gentle return
Voice Cloning for Affirmations
One of PersonaWave's most distinctive features is the option to hear spoken affirmations in your own cloned voice. Using a brief voice sample you provide during intake, PersonaWave securely creates a voice profile that delivers ACT-informed affirmations — around acceptance, present-moment awareness, values-based action, and self-compassion — in a voice that feels intimately familiar. Voice cloning is entirely optional, and your voice data can be deleted at any time upon request.
Your Experience
Each personalized soundscape is rendered as a high-quality audio file that can be used during in-session therapeutic work or independently at home. The session adapts to your specified duration, whether a brief 10-minute grounding practice or an extended multi-hour journey.
The technology ensures smooth transitions between phases, careful attention to layering (avoiding sensory overload), and fade-in/fade-out curves that feel natural and safe. Anchor sounds—like a soft chime or singing bowl—mark the beginning and end of each session, providing a consistent auditory container for your experience.
Psychedelic Preparation Sessions
Collaborative sessions to clarify intentions, address expectations and fears, and establish practical and emotional safety plans around psychedelic experiences.
This includes education about set and setting, nervous-system tools, and aligning your journey with your values.
Psychedelic Integration Sessions
Post-journey sessions focused on processing insights, integrating challenging material, and translating visionary experiences into meaningful changes in daily life.
Techniques may include guided reflection, mindfulness, body-based awareness, and sound-supported exploration of specific memories or themes.
