Our Focus, Our Purpose
We offer private and group Gong Meditations in four key areas of focus: Cancer Wellness, Stress Reduction, Community Outreach and Workplace Wellness
As a small 501(c)(3) nonprofit, Beneficial Sound relies on the generosity of individuals to help fund our operations and keep our offerings accessible — especially to those who need them most: wounded warriors, cancer patients, caregivers, and more.

cancer wellness program
Cancer Wellness is focused on providing free events for patients, survivors and caregivers.
We perform regular Gong Meditations in the greater Seattle and Portland areas. We partner with Cancer Lifeline, a large non-profit in Seattle helping thousands of cancer patients build strength through their support groups and classes.
We also provide our Gong Mediations at leading cancer centers including Overlake Medical Center, EvergreenHealth & Halvorsen Cancer Center, Legacy Good Samaritan Health and the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance (UW, Fred Hutchinson and Children’s Hospital).
We are honored to provide safe, supportive sound healing experiences that bring comfort, connection, and calm to those navigating the cancer journey.

Our Stress Reduction Program (SRP) is designed to support individuals affected by stress, anxiety, and trauma. We offer free and donation-based Gong Meditation events to create space for healing, release, and restoration.
The program is led by:

We offer events at yoga studios throughout Seattle and Portland, open to the general public.
Additionally, we’re honored to work with the U.S. Army, providing ongoing Gong Meditations for soldiers in the Warrior Transition Battalion at Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) in Tacoma, WA. Partnering closely with JBLM’s occupational therapists, we are developing sound healing strategies that offer the greatest impact for our soldiers and veterans.
