AKI Sound Studio is dedicated to reconnecting people with their inner resonance — the frequency of their truest, most aligned self. Rooted in the ancient wisdom of sound healing, AKI houses one of the world’s most extensive collections of 99.99% Alchemy Crystal Singing Bowls and is the largest European distributor of Crystal Tones® Alchemy Crystal Bowls based in Brussels, Belgium.
Each bowl carries its own intelligence, tone, and healing capacity. When played together, they create multidimensional soundscapes that reach the deepest layers of the physical, emotional, and subtle body.
Our purpose is simple: to make the medicine of alchemy crystal sound accessible to everyone. Not everyone can own a bowl or sit in a live sound bath — but everyone deserves access to the healing, clarity, and transformation that sound offers.
AKI is guided by the work of master sound practitioners and teachers Shannon van Staden and Lama Brian Hilliard, whose decades of combined practice inform the teachings, meditations, and explorations you’ll find across all our platforms, trainings and in studio offerings.
Sound Tribe is your on-demand home for sound healing — a place to experience the power of alchemy crystal sound in your own time, in your own space.
Every session is recorded live in our studio in Brussels, Belgium — a space designed with state-of-the-art soundproofing so the pure resonance of the bowls can move through the sound waves untouched. The bowls respond uniquely to each moment, shaping fully original soundscapes that meet you exactly where you are.
Meditation Sessions: Pure alchemy crystal sound - no words. Express, Easy, and Deep Dive journeys to meet your day, your nervous system, and your needs.
Contemplation Sessions: Guided meditations, inspirations, essence instructions, and poetry woven with sound — helping you understand your inner experience as it unfolds.
Insights on Sound: Bite-size teachings on the physics, theory, and spiritual principles of sound healing — so you can grow your practice with confidence.
Sound Tribe also includes The Nine Stages of Training the Mind, a bonus meditation course taught by Lama Brian, and monthly live transmissions where we practise together as a community.
For around the cost of a single in-studio sound bath, Sound Tribe gives you:
a growing on-demand library
monthly live sessions
early access to shop AKI collections
exclusive member offers
and our new app launching next year
And because healing expands through connection, you’ll receive an extra month on your subscription for every friend who joins through your referral link.
This is more than a platform. It’s a space designed for you — your healing, your rhythm, your return to yourself. A place to build ritual. A place to remember. A place to tune back into the frequency of you.
With love and gratitude,
Shannon & Lama Brian
