Cathedral Vault

A vast, empty stone cathedral at twilight. Stained glass, distant organ, towering quiet.

Cathedral Vault takes you into a vast stone building at twilight, where the light from stained glass changes slowly on the floor. A distant organ plays low notes and the quiet is very high and very still.

You simply sit in that space and listen to the echoes.

Twilight light comes through stained glass and falls across a vast stone floor. There is a distant organ note that hangs in the air and a towering quiet that makes everything feel very still.

You are small in here and nothing is asked of you.

What’s in it

A vast, empty stone cathedral at twilight, stained glass, distant organ, towering quiet.

Why do it

The quiet and grandeur of the cathedral provide a vivid space for the mind to explore and relax within.

Why going here does anything

The mind can only be in one place at a time, and a vast stone space is difficult to ignore. When a distant organ note takes up all the room there is no space left for anything else to make a noise.

This is what the session spends its time on.

Hypnosis is not for everyone. If you have epilepsy, a psychotic illness, or you are under psychiatric care, talk to your clinician before using this — here or anywhere.
