A SOUND LIFE

A SOUND LIFE Helping people in need build the resilience to cope with adversity through music, yoga and meditation

A Sound Life helps people in need build the resilience required to cope with adversity and stress. We do this by using music, yoga and meditation to reinstate harmony between their hearts and minds. The most vulnerable people in our communities often have the least access to the tools for transformation, resilience, connection and empowerment. We are committed to changing that and to helping them confidently surf the waves of life and realise they can experience complete joy within their lives. Since 2014, we’ve serviced over 50 facilities, positively impacting over 30,000 people in our community who need it the most. We have over 350 committed ASL volunteers who have delivered over 2,500 free music, yoga and meditation sessions to date. These numbers are a testament to who we are as an organisation, the culture we have created, our ambition and dedication, what we’ve achieved and the way we serve. Our compassionate and committed team of skilled volunteers include musicians, yoga and meditation teachers. These volunteers deliver regular programs to people in health care facilities such as hospitals and disability centres, while also delivering programs to underserved communities such as youth at risk and women's shelters. We’ve witnessed the joy and resilience our tools can deliver time and time again, which is why we are so sure they can make a difference to all lives and why we're energised to do just that.

🧘‍♀️ “Yoga makes me relax.”

🧘‍♀️ “Smiling all the time.”

These words from two of our amazing participants at Cerebral Palsy Alliance say it all. At A Sound Life, we’re honoured to offer regular therapeutic yoga sessions that bring calm, confidence and joy to people living with disability.

We’ve seen firsthand how yoga — when delivered with presence and care — can help reduce anxiety, ease tension, support mobility and lift the spirit. It’s more than a practice… it’s a moment of connection, self-expression and empowerment.

We’re deeply grateful to our wonderful volunteers and our friends at @‌cerebralpalsyalliance for helping us share the healing power of yoga where it’s needed most.

❤️ Here’s to more relaxation, more confidence, and more smiles — for everyone, exactly as they are.

❤️ MEET GUS ❤️

We’re so excited to introduce Gus, our new Music Program Manager at A Sound Life!

Originally from Brazil, Gus has been part of the ASL family for over six years, volunteering as a musician and bringing his beautiful energy, warmth and music into hospitals and community spaces across Sydney.

He’s a talented guitarist and songwriter (check out his latest Album 🎶), and now he’s bringing that same passion to lead our music program — supporting volunteers, building new partnerships and helping us reach even more people in need.

✨ Swipe to see Gus at one of his very first ASL sessions — sharing his gift with so much heart.

We’re so lucky to have you on the team, Gus. Obrigado for everything you do ❤️

🎶 Sound Mentoring Community Vibes ❤️

We had such a beautiful gathering at Auburn Youth Centre Inc. to celebrate our Sound Mentoring Program and the creativity, growth and connection it’s inspired this year.

It was a chance for our mentors, mentees and wider community to come together, share stories, reflect on wins and get inspired for what’s ahead.

Special thanks to Lucas for leading an empowering marketing workshop that gave our young artists new tools to share their work with confidence and heart.

To every mentor, mentee and supporter — thank you for showing up and making this space so special. We’re proud of what we’re building together, one beat at a time 🎧

Gallup ’s 2025 report shows daily worry and stress remain elevated worldwide, while respect, laughter and enjoyment are surprisingly steady.

Peace and wellbeing move together, and women and young people carry the heaviest loads. The fix is not theory. Connection protects, and community programs work.

We translate these insights into action in hospitals, schools and community centres across Australia. Partner with us to help more people, faster. ❤️

🎶 Drumming, Singing & Smiles in Bankstown ❤️

We had such a joyful time facilitating another music workshop at the Recreation, Sports & Social Disability Services Club in Bankstown this week!

Families and their young ones joined us for an uplifting hour of body percussion, singing and drumming together on djembes — creating rhythm, connection and lots of laughter in the circle.

A huge thank you to Uma and the wonderful team at Inclusive and Diverse Communities for welcoming us back for another special session. It’s always an honour to share music in such a vibrant, inclusive space.

Here’s to more rhythm, joy and togetherness 💫

🌞 A huge thank you to Mission Australia for inviting A Sound Life to be part of your Spring Barbecue!

We were so grateful to share live music and therapeutic yoga with your beautiful community. It was a joy to see people relax, connect and light up through sound and movement — right there in the heart of the day.

Why do we do what we do? Because it works.
🎵 Music has been shown to reduce stress, improve mood and create powerful moments of connection — especially in community settings.
🧘‍♀️ Yoga helps calm the nervous system, ease anxiety, and reconnect people with their breath and bodies.

Together, they’re not just feel-good activities — they’re proven tools for resilience, healing and wellbeing.

To everyone who joined us, shared a smile, or stretched out on the mat — thank you. These small moments really do make a big difference ❤️

🎶 Celebrating New Mentors in Sound Mentoring! ❤️

We’re thrilled to share that 17 incredible new mentors joined our Sound Mentoring Training this week — a huge milestone for our growing program!

To mark the occasion, we’re shining a light on Iris and Samaneh, who’ve been having their music sessions at Auburn Youth Centre this year. From songwriting to connection, their weekly meetups are a beautiful reflection of what Sound Mentoring is all about — building confidence, creativity and trust through music.

To every new mentor who showed up with an open heart and a willingness to give back, thank you. Your time, talent and presence will mean the world to a young person.

Here’s to the next chapter of music, mentorship and meaningful connection 💫

🎹 A Gift That Keeps on Giving ❤️

Over the past year, we’ve had the joy of working with Kari Australia through our Sound Mentoring Program. Recently, one of their incredible team members decided to pay it forward — donating two keyboards to support more music-making and healing.

Those keyboards have now found their new home at Royal North Shore Hospital, where our A Sound Life volunteers will use them to bring calm, connection and creativity to patients across the wards.

Thank you KARI Australia for your generosity, and to Northern Sydney Local Health District for welcoming these instruments into your space.

It’s amazing what can happen when community, music and care come together 🎶

We’re overjoyed to share a moment that beautifully captured the heart of who we are: a participant—usually tense and on edge—turned to us at the end of our first yoga session at Kensington Mission Australia and said, “I don’t remember the last time I felt this relaxed.”

At A Sound Life, our essence is simple yet profound: we empower people in need to become more resilient through the healing power of interactive music, therapeutic yoga, and mindfulness meditation, delivered with love and kindness.

This moment in Kensington is a gentle reminder that when mind and heart find harmony, transformation happens—not just in a session, but in the lives we touch.

✨ Thank you to our volunteers who bring compassion and light to every space. Here’s to many more shared breaths, songs, and moments of peace. ✨

✨ Connecting for Community Wellbeing

The A Sound Life team had the pleasure of meeting with The Hon. Jihad Dib, NSW Minister for Youth and Minister for Customer Service & Digital Government.

We’re so grateful for the opportunity to share the heart of what we do — delivering free music, yoga and meditation programs to support the wellbeing of children, youth and vulnerable communities.

It was inspiring to explore ways A Sound Life can contribute to positive change. A heartfelt thank you to Minister Dib and his team for your support and openness. We look forward to walking this path together and creating more opportunities for connection, care and resilience in our communities.

Our Story

We're facing a global health and well-being crisis around the world. - 3,000 Australian's died in 2017 due to su***de - 300 Million people globally live with a mental illness. In Australia, it's 1 in 5 people - 1 Billion people globally live with a disability - $20B spent in corporate absenteeism in Australia each year due to mental health concerns The state of our planet is growing ever-more precarious. We’re on a mission to change that.

A Sound Life is Australia's first well-being charity inspiring people in need to improve their health and well-being with free yoga, music and mediation programs. We service health care facilities (hospitals, aged care, disabilities, mental health) and underserved communities including youth at risk, women's shelters and refugees. Through community and corporate support, more than 200 volunteers have delivered 1,500 programs across 40 facilities serving 22,500 people since 2015. But there's still many more people to serve. Our goal is to inspire the lives of 50,000 through yoga, music and meditation programs by 2020 and we need your help.

In February 2019 we’ll be launching The Sound Life Dome, Sydney’s first for-purpose venue consciously offering an event space for making a difference. A place which makes you feel fiercely creative and wholesome, just by nature of its sacred geometry and thoughtful design.

The dome is a multi-function venue to be utilised by A Sound Life, other charities, community groups, educational institutions and the corporate sector. A venue to host events, conferences, concerts, workshops, private functions, exhibitions, screenings and more. Every event held in the dome will help us deliver more free music, yoga and meditation programs to people in need.
