Rosie Newmark writes: “After talking with students who were grappling with mental health challenges, Katie Donahoe wanted to do something to help. Donahoe, teen librarian at Mt. Lebanon Public Library in Pittsburgh, began hosting sound bath sessions twice a month. These sessions typically involve participants lying down while an instructor uses musical instruments like singing bowls and gongs to create sound waves that calm participants’ central nervous systems. Proponents say this leads to relaxation and healing throughout the body.”
