Sound-Based Mindfulness Program

Culture of Calm delivered an eight-week sound-based mindfulness pilot at the Ontario Correctional Institute, introducing participants to practical sound-based techniques for stress management and self-regulation.

Designed for a correctional setting, the program combined guided listening and accessible sound instruments to help participants build awareness of stress and explore strategies for managing moments of overwhelm. Pre- and post-program feedback indicated improved perceived ability to calm themselves when overwhelmed, with all 17 post-program respondents rating the experience positively or very positively.
