Reawaken began in 2020, during the height of uncertainty, as a weekly Zoom gathering. A space where we could come together to journal, connect, and be held in community. What started as virtual circles quickly became something deeper. These early gatherings offered reflection, connection and a shared sacred space during a time when many were feeling disconnected from themselves and from one another. It came from a genuine desire to create space for presence, honesty, and healing.

As Reawaken grew, Reanna wanted to create something tangible to carry the practice beyond the screen. That ping led to the creation of two journals — both of which sold out, including a collaborative edition with artist and friend Miriam Gutierrez. These journals became tools for self-inquiry, ritual, and daily remembrance, extending the spirit of Reawaken into people’s homes and personal lives.

Along the way, sound healing naturally emerged as a central pillar. What began as quiet reflection evolved into embodied experiences weaving together sound, journaling, and movement. Reawaken moved from online gatherings into physical spaces, offering immersive sound baths and community events throughout Los Angeles and beyond.

Since then, Reawaken has held sold-out sound baths and events across diverse communities from dancers and creatives to sober-curious spaces and everyday humans seeking grounding. The work has expanded into a Tmilly Guided Meditation series for Artists, corporate wellness events, school settings with elementary students and high school teachers, women’s rehabilitation programs, veteran spaces, and creative communities, each experience shaped by the people in the room.

Today, Reawaken is a living community that weaves together sound healing, journaling, and movement — guided by all of Reanna Shay’s artistic offerings. Each gathering is an invitation to slow down, soften the nervous system, and reconnect with what’s already within.

Reawaken is not about perfection or performance. It is about presence. It is about remembering. And it is about creating spaces where people feel safe to arrive exactly as they are. Enjoy 6 years of a recap here!
