Angsana Velavaru to Host Sound Journeys with Harriet Emily: A Week-Long Wellness Retreat in the Maldives

16 July, 2026

In an era where constant connectivity often leaves us feeling depleted, the search for genuine disconnection and deep restoration has never been more urgent. Responding to this growing need, Angsana Velavaru, a private-island resort nestled in the South Nilandhe Atoll, has announced an exclusive wellness retreat that promises to be a transformative escape for the soul. From September 17 to 22, 2026, the resort will host Sound Journeys with Harriet Emily, a week-long programme dedicated to the restorative power of sound healing.

The Healing Power of Sound

Leading this immersive experience is Harriet Emily, an internationally recognised Sound Healing Practitioner and Meditation Guide. With over a decade of experience in the wellness industry, Harriet has cultivated a devoted following among travellers seeking profound, transformative wellness experiences. Her unique approach blends the ethereal tones of crystal singing bowls, the gentle melodies of the flute, and her own voice to craft sound journeys that inspire deep relaxation, mindfulness, and inner peace.

Sound healing, the practice at the heart of this retreat, is more than just a relaxation technique. It is a powerful therapeutic modality that uses vibrational frequencies to support mental, emotional, and physical health. As soothing frequencies wash over participants, brainwaves can shift into deeply restorative states, similar to those achieved in deep meditation or sleep, allowing for profound relaxation and stress reduction. Studies have shown that such experiences can lead to substantial reductions in tension, anxiety, and fatigue. Harriet's residency at Angsana Velavaru marks a rare opportunity for guests to experience her renowned practice in one of the world’s most serene natural settings.

A Curated Journey of Sensory Discovery

The programme features a carefully curated schedule, set against the breathtaking backdrop of the resort’s lagoon, pristine beach, and the stunning Kuredhi pool deck. The journey begins with a complimentary Meet the Sound Healing Expert & Sound Bath Taster session on September 17, offering guests a gentle introduction to the week ahead.

The highlights of the week include:

• Sunrise Sound Bath at Kuredhi Pool (September 18 & 22): Begin your day with intention, allowing the first light of dawn and the healing vibrations to set a peaceful tone.

• Stargazing Sound Bath on the Beach (September 18): An enchanting evening experience, where the celestial canopy provides a dramatic setting for deep relaxation and wonder.

• Sunset Sound Bath & Meditation on the Beach (September 19): As the sun dips below the horizon, find tranquillity through guided meditation and the soothing sounds of the sound bath.

• Floating Sound Bath Meditation at Kuredhi Pool (September 20): A truly unique experience that combines the gentle sound vibrations with the sensation of drifting on water, offering a profound sense of weightlessness and peace.

For those seeking an even more personalised experience, private sessions are available. Guests can book one-on-one, couples', or family sound baths. A bespoke Private Wellness Package is also offered, which pairs a private floating sound bath with a floating breakfast for the ultimate in luxurious relaxation.

Wellness at the Heart of the Angsana Velavaru Experience

This exclusive retreat is a natural extension of Angsana Velavaru’s broader commitment to holistic wellness. The resort, renowned for its award-winning Angsana Spa which draws on time-honoured Asian traditions, already offers a range of wellness-focused experiences designed to nurture guests' mental and emotional wellbeing alongside physical relaxation. From guided meditation and breathwork to sunset yoga on the beach, the resort provides a sanctuary where guests can reconnect with themselves and their surroundings.

Harriet Emily perfectly captures the essence of this offering: “Sound has a unique ability to help people slow down and reconnect with themselves, especially in a setting as tranquil as Angsana Velavaru. I’m looking forward to sharing this journey with guests and creating a space where they can truly let go.”
