Sara Auster, is a world-renowned sound therapist, meditation teacher, and author of SOUND BATH: Meditate, Heal and Connect through Listening.

Sara’s thoughtfully-crafted experiences allow sound to be used as a tool to invite meditative states, support self-inquiry, cultivate deep relaxation, and inspire meaningful transformation.
She continues to innovate, build global community, and expand the reach of sound baths and sound meditation through the development of the PAUSE Method, an original methodology that explores how sound and listening transform space – both physically and psychologically – for the purpose of creating connection and healing.

Recognized as a top meditation expert by Oprah Magazine and The Essential Guide to Meditation, Sara has been featured in the NY Times, Billboard, TIME Magazine, Vogue, and was Named one of 50 Innovators Shaping the Future of Wellness by Sonima. She has collaborated on heart-centered partnerships with global organizations like Google, Microsoft, Audible, Apple, Sonos and Nike, and brought public group sound meditations to cultural institutions like the NY Philharmonic, Palais de Tokyo, Rubin Museum, and MoMA.
