Floating Sound Bath vs. Janzu: Same Water Magic, Different Journey

Both a floating sound bath and Janzu use water as the healing medium, but they create very different experiences.

Floating Sound Bath 🌊

Think of this as a stillness practice in water. You float on the surface — fully supported by floats, noodles, or loungers — while sound vibrations from crystal bowls, gongs, and chimes move through the air and the water. The sound is the “guide,” leading your mind and body into deep relaxation. There’s no movement from a practitioner — your body stays gently still, and the sound does the work. It’s deeply meditative and grounding.

Best for: Stress relief, nervous system reset, mental clarity, and a feeling of spaciousness.

Janzu 🤲

Janzu (sometimes called “water rebirthing”) is more like a moving meditation in water. A trained practitioner gently guides and supports your body through slow, flowing movements — often underwater — to release physical tension and emotional blocks. The focus is on surrender, trust, and letting the water carry you. It can feel like a deeply nurturing, womb-like experience, with moments of profound emotional release.

Best for: Releasing stored emotions, enhancing body trust, deep energetic clearing, and transformational self-discovery.

In Short

Floating Sound Bath: You stay still, the sound moves through you. Perfect for busy women who need a peaceful pause without intense emotional processing.

Janzu: Your body is moved through the water, which can take you into deeper emotional and energetic work.

The Didi Difference

Our retreats are about:

Relaxation without effort — moments where your body and mind can truly rest.

Sisterhood — genuine connection, shared laughter, and uplifting conversation.

Nourishment — chef-prepared, soul-fueling meals made with care and intention.
