About
ONDO was established by Shane Aspegren as a structure to further facilitate his longstanding interests, practices, and training in the healing aspects of sound, meditation, and somatic inquiry.
As a platform for offering Holistic Sound facilitation on an ongoing basis, the ONDO sound sessions have thus-far consisted of group sound baths, individualized (1:1) private Somatic Sound sessions, online pandemic iterations, retreats, workshops, recordings, multi-sensory events, and collaborations with a wide range of holistic & mental wellness organizations & practitioners.
The other primary offering that Shane facilitates for clients is Embodied Coaching. Sessions can be held online (via Zoom) or in person throughout the greater Los Angeles area.
Get in touch for a free 15 minute discovery call or directly book an individual, group, or other session. Keep an eye on IG @ondoholistic for the most up-to-date schedule and travel dates.

Sound Waves / Brain Waves
The use of sound as a meditative and therapeutic tool is nothing new, though we are fortunate to be living in an age when modern science is finally advancing on the innate knowledge to which various cultures have been instinctually responding for hundreds of years. Together with Hong Kong Arts Centre's Cultural Masseur series, we produced these videos to help explain some of the techniques used across the various ONDO practices.
After learning more about brainwave entrainment and binaural beats in this short video, you can listen to a series of recordings, which are created specifically with the intention to help shift the listener’s brainwave states towards Alpha, Theta, and Delta.
Sound & The Bodymind
Sound waves can have a profound effect on physical matter, which can be clearly demonstrated in cymatic patterns created through the vibration of specific frequencies.
In this second video produced with Hong Kong Arts Centre, we take a deeper look into wave science and therapeutic traditions, while discussing the intersection of wellness, art, music and science.
