My name is Mauri Kieft. I work as a Sound Therapist and Yoga Nidra teacher in Amsterdam. My love for nature is reflected in the location of the practice, which is situated in a beautiful, quiet park in Amsterdam.

My journey with sound therapy began in 2019, when I first encountered Himalayan singing bowls during a group sound bath. The experience left me with a profound sense of peace and presence, encouraging my interest in sound healing. I have always been drawn to music and its way of touching our hearts and souls. Though, until that day, I never had such a deep experience with solely sound vibration, so nothing musical, no rhythm, no words, just pure sound as a portal to connect within.

That day I wrote in my note book: “ I do not know anything about this, yet I do know that it’s more than listening to beautiful sounds, I feel like it connects me to the natural word, to the trees, the wind, mother earth, and therefore guides me to who I am. I am nature, not a place I visit. It is home.

Shortly after, I set off on a travel to Thailand to complete my first training in Sound Healing Fundamentals. Alongside my love for sound healing, I also fell in love with the beauty of Thailand. I purchased my first two bowls—a heart bowl and a root bowl—and began leading sound meditations in Amsterdam, at the studio where I also teach Yoga Nidra.

A few months later, my partner and I followed our hearts: we packed our belongings and returned to our beloved Thailand for an extended stay of 8 months. There, I undertook an intensive training with my mentor in Integrative Vibrational Therapy (Sound Therapy ), where I learned to work one-on-one with specific health situations and needs through sound and vibration.

Today, I lovingly guide one-on-one and duo sessions, while also offering group sound baths for special occasions.

At the heart of my work lies my mission to help people experience deep rest to promote their mental, emotional, spiritual health. I deeply believe in the power of sound and respect its way of showing us how we are nature itself.
