My name is Mauri Kieft, and I work as a Sound Therapist and Yoga Nidra teacher in Amsterdam. My love for nature is reflected in the location of The Sound Healing Practice, nestled in the peaceful Amstelpark, surrounded by trees, birds, and stillness.

My journey with sound began in 2019, when I first experienced the deep, transformative effect of Himalayan singing bowls. That moment awakened something within me, a sense of connection, not only to myself but to the natural world around me.

To deepen my understanding, I have traveled to Thailand several times, studying sound healing under the guidance of my mentor, an experience that continues to inspire my work today.

What started as a personal exploration has now grown into The Sound Healing Practice, which I lovingly founded one and a half years ago. I began offering sessions from home, and now I welcome clients into this beautiful, quiet space in nature, a place where people can truly arrive, exhale, and rest.

Today, I offer one-on-one, duo, child & parent, pregnancy, and corporate sessions, as well as group sound baths for special occasions. Since recently, children have been finding their way to the practice, accompanied by a parent or caregiver. It’s truly beautiful to witness their openness and curiosity as they explore sound and develop their own connection to it.

What makes this work so powerful is that feeling happens in the body. The sound vibrations naturally guide attention from the mind to the body and to the heart. In today’s fast-paced world, this journey is more important than ever, creating the space to fully feel emotions, honor the body’s innate wisdom, and trust in it, allowing clarity to emerge.

At the heart of my work lies my wish to help people experience deep rest, and to support their mental, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing through sound and stillness. I feel deeply grateful for all the beautiful encounters, inspiration, and mentors who have come into my life through this work.

I hope to continue this meaningful journey for many years to come, guiding people from all walks of life, and in 2026, I dream of also bringing sound healing to elderly communities, offering moments of softness, presence, and connection.
