Introducing UR
MI
The Relationship between Sound and our State of Being
About Urmi
Urmi specialise in restorative practices facilitating immersive and
powerful sound experiences. Urmi, meaning wave in Sanskrit, speaks to the philosophy
that underpins our work, harnessing the tide of change from ancient concepts to the
realities of contemporary life.
Urmi seeks to put a frame around sound and all the ways that we are in exchange
with vibration. Whether through language, music, nature or contemplative practice,
sound composes the world in ways unseen. This project hopes to help us better understand the nature of vibration so that we may better understand ourselves.
We work with a range of instruments therapeutically, such as the gong, crystal bowls, percussion, monochord and analog synthesizers to create experimental and vibrant soundscapes designed to guide you into states of deep self-enquiry, clarity and peace.
Inspired by world philosophies, space + place, music, art and ecology.

Our Events
By allowing these rich harmonic tones & therapeutic vibrations to come into resonance with our bodies, we soothe the nervous system, untangle energetic and emotional blocks and guide the self back to its natural state of equilibrium.
These shifts are catalysed by the stimulation of alpha and theta brainwave states, the production of hormones that support our physiological function and regulation of the parasympathetic nervous system.
In other words, this is a safe and supportive practice to visit the inner landscape to reveal what lies beneath and what might need addressing.
Our Work
We work with a range of high-profile clients including Soho House, Estelle Manor, Nobu, New Balance, The 22, 180 Strand, Petersham Nurseries, Lanserhof, Wilderness, The Mandrake Hotel and David Zwirner Gallery.

What to Expect at our Workshops...
Cacao has been revered for it's healing potential by the Maya and Aztecs for millenia, it looks like we are finally catching up to this ancient wisdom.
Known to induce natural states of euphoria and an increased sense of connection to others, ourselves and our creative ability.
We source our Cacao from Guatemala from Keith aka "The Chocolate Shaman", generally recognised to be the best ceremonial grade Cacoa in the world. Cacao Ceremonies can support profound and powerful healing, so we like to begin select sound events in this way.
Urmi's offering synthesises ancient wisdom with modern science to help us navigate the world today. Drawing from World philosophies and contemplative practices, as well as art, design, architecture, ecology and neuroscience, we provide fresh perspectives that make sense of our place in the contemporary world.
Our interdisciplinary programme of expert-led workshops feature specialists across gut health, movement, art and agroecology to offer a contemplative framing to these areas of interest and inspire new ways of being.

What Others are Saying...
Urmi’s classes introduced me to a new dimension of sound that I’ve never experienced before. Their sound baths are meditative, and leave you feeling grounded and lighter, in a state of clarity and calmness. Every session is different, and they create a magical atmosphere that makes you feel whole, safe and relaxed. It transcends you into another world, away from a busy city life.

Urmi's sound sessions are absolutely magical. They bring such a unique and special energy to the experience + you leave feeling transported and renewed. Without a doubt, the most powerful (and beautiful!) sound baths I have been to.

I’ve been to a few Urmi Sound ceremonies and every single one has been the most incredible experience. Each time I got something different from it, depending on my life state at that time. But each was just as incredible as the first.
The boys are so calming and gentle. They feel really comfortable and clear in themselves and their work. So you go into a really safe and trusting space.
I took my mum to a session, she suffers from tinnitus, after the session and for the week after it was the first time since developing it she’d had relief from it!
