What is The Reset?
You've probably tried therapy, yoga, supplements, specialists — scrolling wellness content at midnight hoping something finally sticks. And you're still stuck.
People come to The Reset from different places — a loss, a burnout, a relationship that shifted, an illness, a transition they can't quite move beyond. The details vary. The feeling is the same: something has been unresolved for a while, and nothing you've tried has reached it.
The Reset isn't a holiday. It isn't a spa weekend. It's a structured four-day experience in the Otways — 90 minutes from Melbourne — that works across the three levels most retreats never touch: your mind, your body, and your energy field. You leave not just relaxed. You leave ready.

"I am stress free, no anxiety, so relaxed, more positive."
— Cam
Does this sound familiar?
You're exhausted but can't properly rest. Your body never fully switches off.
Stress and anxiety sit in your chest like a constant low hum you can't quiet.
You've done therapy, yoga, journaling — yet something deep still feels stuck.
You're high-functioning on the outside but running on fumes on the inside.
You're craving a real break from your environment — not just a holiday, something deeper.
You feel disconnected — from your body, from clarity, from the version of yourself you know is still in there.
Sound of Soma was built for exactly this.
Reserve My SpotWhy The Reset Works
Most Retreats
Work only at the surface — relaxation, breathing, mindfulness
Leave you feeling good for a few days — then the environment recreates the pattern
Address the mind but miss the body — where most stress and trauma actually lives
Send you home with a schedule and a playlist
The Reset
Works across all three levels — mind, body, and energy field — simultaneously
Uses sound frequency and somatic work to reach what talk therapy often can't
Removes you from the environment recreating the pattern — so real change can happen
Sends you home with a lasting shift — not just a good memory
"The sound baths have been life changing for me. I have ADHD and have always struggled to meditate or to really connect with myself. But thanks to Ange's incredible talents, I have finally been able to. 6 months later, it's incredible how different I feel and am as a person."
— Charlotte
Imagine Your Days
You wake to birdsong in the Otways canopy. No alarm. No inbox. Just the slow return to a version of yourself you've almost forgotten.
Morning
Mornings begin slowly with nourishing food prepared fresh on-site, gentle somatic movement, and grounding practices that help the body release tension — no alarms, no rush.
Daytime
Throughout the day we move through a blend of guided sound journeys using crystal singing bowls, somatic sessions, and guided practice sessions — including quantum emotional freedom techniques and intention-setting — held in our dedicated practice space surrounded by lush forest.
In Between
Just as important are the pauses — time to rest on the verandah overlooking the hills, walk the property, journal by the pond, or simply be still. The alpacas occasionally join you.
Evenings
Evenings often include deeper sound experiences, group reflection, and connection around shared meals. On the last night, we gather around the fire circle under the stars.
By the End
By the end of the retreat, most people feel calmer, clearer, and more connected to themselves than they have in a long time. Not just relaxed — genuinely different.
The Healing Framework
Most healing approaches work on one layer. A therapist works on the mind. A physio works on the body. A sound healer works on the energy field. The Reset works on all three — simultaneously — because that's where lasting change actually happens. Most retreats never go this deep.
Subconscious patterns, belief systems, and thought loops keeping you in old ways of being. Shadow work, mindset reprogramming, emotional processing.
Somatic release and fascia work that physically discharges stored stress and trauma held in the tissues — things the mind alone can't reach.
Sound and frequency healing using Tibetan and crystal singing bowls to clear the biofield, regulate the nervous system, and shift cellular resonance.
Education and practices that bring you out of survival states and into genuine rest — so your body can finally do what it's been trying to do all along.
Nature immersion, time away from EMFs and screens, and a completely off-grid setting that gives your system the contrast it needs to reset.
"Your most dominant frequency creates your reality. To truly heal, you have to address the mind, the body, and the energy field — together."
— Ange Monitto, Founder of Sound of Soma
Where We Gather
A private bush property in the Otways — just 90 minutes from Melbourne. No noise except birdsong, wind through the canopy, and the occasional alpaca.
A selection of different rooms, a private lake, an outdoor fire circle, spring-fed ponds, and a wraparound verandah overlooking rolling green hills. Everything you need — nothing you don't.

What Awaits You
Immersive daily sound bath sessions using Tibetan and crystal singing bowls to quiet the nervous system, clear the energy field, and invite deep rest. Both individual and group sessions throughout the retreat.
Gentle, body-led movement practices and fascia work that help you reconnect with physical sensation and consciously release tension held deep in the tissues — releasing what the mind alone cannot reach.
A symbolic and embodied release ritual. Let go of old identities, emotional burdens, and subconscious agreements that no longer serve you. One of the most powerful evenings of the retreat.
Three wholesome, plant-rich meals daily prepared by a private chef using seasonal, locally-sourced ingredients. Dietary needs accommodated. You don't have to think about a single thing.
4 nights in the Otways. Private, shared, or twin room options. Warm, cosy, and completely off-grid from your normal life.
This isn't a temporary escape. You'll leave with practical, repeatable tools that support emotional regulation and sustainable energy — so the shifts you create here continue long after you return home.
A Day in The Reset
Each day holds a gentle rhythm — enough structure to anchor you, enough spaciousness to let you wander. There is nowhere you need to be except here.
Day One — Thursday · Arrival
Arrive at your own pace. Step out of the car and feel the shift in the air. The first evening is gentle — grounding, a soft sound immersion, an opening circle. Your nervous system starts to settle for the first time in a long time.
Days Two & Three — Friday · Deepening
Once you're settled, we start moving what's been stuck. Somatic practices, deep sound healing, and pattern rewiring that goes somewhere real. Things that have been held in the body start to release.
Day Three — Saturday · Integration
The day where everything changes. Immersive healing, integration practices, movement, and time in nature. This is the day most people say something in them finally released — something they'd been carrying for years.
Day Four — Sunday · Closing
Integration. Reflection. A closing ceremony. You leave not just rested but genuinely changed — with clarity, calm, and a set of tools to carry with you. The work doesn't stop when the retreat ends.

Your Facilitators
You are in qualified hands. Every session is designed by practitioners with formal training, hundreds of client hours, and lived experience of the exact patterns they help you release.
Ange Monitto
I'm Ange Monitto — a Melbourne-based sound healing practitioner with a Diploma in Sound Therapy and training in Tibetan singing bowls from India. Over the past several years I have worked with 200+ clients in private practice and group settings, specialising in stress, burnout, chronic fatigue, nervous system dysregulation, and emotional overwhelm.
My methodology comes from both rigorous training and lived experience. In my late 20s I collapsed into survival mode — severe fatigue, anxiety, heart palpitations, brain fog, and months of debilitating exhaustion that every medical test failed to explain. What I eventually understood was that stress and emotional suppression had embedded themselves physically into my body and nervous system. Standard medicine couldn't reach it. Sound healing did.
That recovery became the foundation of everything I teach. I earned my Diploma in Sound Therapy, trained with masters in India, and spent years building a practice grounded in what actually moves the needle — not surface-level relaxation, but deep, structured reset at the level of the nervous system, the body, and the energy field. This retreat is built on that body of work. You are in safe, highly qualified hands.
Jack Lawton
I'm Jack Lawton — a somatic facilitator and movement specialist with a Bachelor of Science in Physiology and Psychology. My academic background in how stress physiologically reshapes the body underpins everything I bring to The Reset: an evidence-informed, body-first approach to regulation and release.
I hold certifications in Human Garage Fascial Maneuvers (a cutting-edge approach to releasing deeply held tension patterns in connective tissue), Les Mills Group Fitness Instruction, Singing Athlete Vocal Coaching, and Reiki Master. I am trained specifically in the somatic and physical dimensions of stored stress — the places most people have never been guided into, and the places where lasting change actually happens.
At The Reset, I lead the physical layers of the work: somatic movement, fascia release, and body-based practices designed to discharge what the mind alone cannot reach. My role is to help you rebuild trust in your body — gently, safely, and with genuine expertise behind every session.

For the Partner, Husband, Wife, or Friend Reading This
We know how this works. Someone fills out the form, gets excited, then mentions it at home — and suddenly there are questions. Is it safe? Is it legit? Will it actually help? Is it really worth the money?
Here's the honest answer: the people who come to The Reset are dealing with real things. Stress that isn't going away. Exhaustion that sleep doesn't fix. A quiet sense of being disconnected from themselves that they haven't been able to shake. These things affect relationships, families, and quality of life for everyone around them — not just the person experiencing them.
This retreat is four days. It's run by a qualified, highly-reviewed practitioner with hundreds of clients in Melbourne. The location is safe, the group is small, and the experience is structured. People leave changed. That's not marketing language — it's what actually happens.
The most loving thing you can do is support them in going.
If you have questions, reach out. Ange is happy to speak with you directly — just register interest below and mention it in the form.

No Pressure, No Obligation
The retreat is a big step. If you want to experience Ange's work before deciding, here are four ways to get started — all free or low-commitment.
Experience Ange's work in person at a regular Sound Bath session in Windsor, Melbourne.
Healing With Frequency — Ange's free Skool community. Resources, practices, and a community on the same path.
Ange goes deep on nervous system healing, frequency, and what it actually looks like to reset from the inside.
Behind the scenes, client stories, practices, and a real look at the work.
Common Questions
Everything. All accommodation at the Otways retreat centre, all meals from morning to night, every session and practice throughout the 4 days, integration resources to take home, and ongoing support. You arrive with a bag — everything else is sorted.
This is the most common thing we hear. The four days you invest in this will give back to your work performance, focus, and energy far more than the four days you'd have spent grinding. Many people frame it as sick leave, annual leave, or a professional development investment — because that's genuinely what it is. If you'd like to talk through the logistics, reach out and we'll problem-solve it with you.
Completely okay. Most people who come to The Reset have little to no prior experience — and that often works in their favour. There's no background required. Ange meets everyone exactly where they are.
No. The work is grounded in the science of the nervous system, somatic psychology, and the measurable effects of sound frequency on the body. You don't need to believe in anything. You just need to be willing to feel. People from all backgrounds — including those who are deeply sceptical — come and have profound experiences. Your scepticism is welcome.
Yes. The retreat is designed with spaciousness in mind. Alongside the guided sessions, there will be time to rest, reflect, explore the surrounding nature, or simply enjoy quiet time for yourself.
Yes. We offer payment plans split across 2–3 instalments. Just mention it when you register interest and we'll work out something that makes it accessible. We'd rather find a way to get you there than have the investment be the thing that stops you.
Most people come alone — and they consistently say it was the best decision. You don't need to know anyone. The group is small, the environment is warm, and something about going through a shared experience together creates a kind of connection that's hard to find anywhere else.
If you're exhausted, overwhelmed, or feeling stuck in patterns you can't shift — yes, this is for you. You don't need any prior experience with healing, spirituality, or retreats. Most guests come having never done anything like this before. Ange creates a safe, grounded environment where you can move at your own pace. The only requirement is a willingness to show up.
Every person's experience is different. What past clients consistently describe: a significant reduction in stress and anxiety, a feeling of physical lightness and ease in the body, greater emotional clarity, improved sleep, and a sense of finally being able to breathe again. Some describe it as years of progress in four days. The most common phrase Ange hears afterward is: "I wish I'd done this sooner."
Yes — we offer two flexible options. A $700 deposit with the balance split into three instalments, or a 3-month payment plan (a small $200 plan fee applies). See the payment options section for full details. We'd rather find a way to get you there than have the cost be the reason you don't come.

Do you wake up tired before the day even starts?
Overstimulated. On edge. Already bracing for what’s ahead?

Wondering where your spark went?
Say GOODBYE to Stress & HELLO to Energy, Balance & Safety!
We understand the struggle. Breaking out of stress or survival mode isn’t about trying harder, it's clearing the stored patterns in the body and energy that are creating that.
This retreat is designed as a structured reset to help you release stored stress, reconnect to your body, and rebuild steady, sustainable energy and health.
Some of the Individuals I’ve Helped Transform Their Lives
I found ange by pure luck and what a find! I had a near death experience in Mallorca 5 years ago which then lead into undiagnosed ptsd for over 2 yrs. I saw an EMDR psychologist to treat this which helped me a great deal and get me back on track a lot but just couldn’t get back to feeling 100%.
On top of this a work injury which lead into constant nerve pain for over 12 months in my arm and elbow joint. My body has had so much to deal with, so much pain, stress and anxiety, sleep anxiety, which then lead into insomnia and severe sleeping issues, not to mention the mental toll which is probably the biggest.
I just couldn’t get to be fully recovered from what l have been dealt with for the last 5 years and now after seeing Ange he has turned everything around for me.
After having his treatments l am back to feeling amazing again, I actually didn’t think this was even possible. Finding Ange and having our one on one sessions once a week for the sound healing over the last 6 weeks is like the most amazing thing to happen!
I can’t believe the transformation and what has happened to me in this short time, l am stress free, no anxiety, so relaxed, more positive, have a much better outlook on life and generally more positive outlook on everything, he has switched something in my head. There is nothing worse than being in pain constantly, it’s debilitating and defeats you, no matter how strong you are. It was only after 2 sessions l started feeling like a weight had been lifted and was feeling lighter and much better mentally.
I can’t thank Ange enough, l believe he has been the final piece of my jigsaw puzzle to putting and getting me back to a better, happier, pain free, anxiety free and positive lifestyle.
I will be forever grateful to Ange for this and the treatments he does, l can’t recommend him enough!
Cam
The sound baths have been life changing for me. Looking back at my first bath, I was a nervous wreck. 6 months later, it’s incredible how different I feel and am as a person. The 60mins sessions are great, but the 90mins are really where it’s it! I have adhd and have always struggled to meditate or to really connect with myself. But thanks to Ange’s incredible talents, I have finally been able to.
CHARLOTTE
After working with Ange I have felt physically better with the added benefit of having a strategy to regulate my nervous system which has over a life time of fight or flight existence hung onto trapped energy. If you are at your wits end with pain or perhaps it's something else you are feeling is a bit off give it a go.
MARG
I highly recommend for everyone and especially if you want to take your energy work, self-healing, meditation, inner work, whatever you want to call it to the next level.
Authentic, loving, non-toxic and good/high vibrations always here with Ange’s work.

Add more about the facilities THE LOCATION
Spend your free time forest bathing, add on to the sensory experience of reading this.
Just 90 minutes from Melbourne and only 15 minutes inland from Lorne and the beaches of the Great Ocean Road, this retreat is set within the quiet expanse of the Otways.
Surrounded by 60 acres of rolling farmland, rainforest pockets, lakes and native bushland, the property offers panoramic valley views, long timber verandahs and cosy log fires with no traffic, no city noise, and space to truly exhale.
Kangaroos graze at sunset, parrots move through the trees, and the only sounds at night are frogs on the lake and the occasional owl calling through the valley. A meandering creek runs through the land, and hidden paths lead to quiet corners perfect for reflection or stillness.
It’s countryside immersion with the ocean just minutes away. The perfect balance of forest, farmland and coastline.
A place to step out of the noise and return to yourself.
REMOVE: Hey, I'm Ange... and I've been there too.
I know what it feels like to wake up already EXHAUSTED ANXIOUS & BURTOUT, in a body that doesn't feel like your own, push through the day running on EMPTY, and wonder if this is just how life is supposed to be.
IT’S FRUSTRATING. IT’S LONELY.
And it makes you question if lasting change is even possible.
But here’s what I discovered…
the problem isn’t you
The problem is the endless cycle of short-term solutions that IGNORE the bigger picture of your well-being.
Once I found a balanced, sustainable approach and shifted from chasing quick fixes to understanding my body’s signals, and how to address them everything began to change.
And that’s exactly what the RESET retreat is designed to give you.
A clear path. A balanced approach. Real, lasting results.
Now, I’m here to share this approach to healing with you because I know it can transform your life just like it did mine.

Step Out of Survival Mode.
Step Back Into Yourself.

SOUND HEALING & BIOFIELD TUNING
Through intentional sound healing and frequency work, we gently clear stored emotional charge held in the body and biofield. This helps release subtle stress imprints that keep you looping the same tension patterns and creates space for calm and clarity to return.

SOMATIC RELEASE
Chronic stress lives in the body's connective tissue called the fascia. Through daily guided somatic movement and body-based release, you’ll safely release stored tension and allow your system to soften and heal.

PATTERN REWIRING
Many of your stress responses are unconscious loops shaped by past experiences. Through structured emotional processing and subconscious awareness, you’ll learn how to interrupt these patterns and create healthier responses moving forward.

CONNECTION & COMMUNITY
Healing accelerates in safe, grounded connection. Through held group integration and co-regulated experiences, you’ll feel supported without pressure or performance, rebuilding trust in both yourself and others.

RETURN TO SAFETY
When your body has been in survival mode for too long, calm can feel unfamiliar. This retreat gently guides your system back into steadiness, helping you shift from constant vigilance to grounded presence.

REAL-LIFE INTEGRATION
This isn’t a temporary escape. You’ll leave with practical, repeatable tools that support emotional regulation and sustainable energy so the shifts you create here continue long after you return home.
Meet your facilitators

Ange Monitto
I’m Ange Monitto, a Melbourne-based sound healing practitioner supporting people who are navigating stress, burnout, chronic fatigue and emotional overwhelm. My journey it began during my own collapse into survival mode. In my late 20s, despite a full social life and constant movement, I was battling chronic illness severe fatigue, anxiety, recurring illness and burnout. After a sudden health crash which left me bed-bound with heart palpitations, brain fog and debilitating exhaustion for months countless medical tests returned “normal” results but I knew something deeper was wrong.
What I came to understand was that my body hadn’t failed me it had been overwhelmed for years. Stress, emotional suppression and constant pushing had embedded themselves physically. Treating symptoms wasn’t enough. The root patterns in my nervous system, my body, and my energy field needed to be addressed. Discovering sound healing became a turning point creating a release and calm my body hadn’t felt in years, and opening the door to real recovery.
I went on to earn my Diploma in Sound Therapy, train in Tibetan singing bowls in India, and deepen my understanding of how stored stress and trauma live in the body. Today, I create grounded, structured spaces where people can step out of survival mode and learn how to reset safely and sustainably. This retreat is built from lived experience designed to offer the safety, clarity and depth I once needed myself.

Jack Lawton
I’m Jack Lawton, and my work bridges science, embodiment, and lived experience.
With a Bachelor of Science in Physiology and Psychology, I’ve long been fascinated by how stress shapes the body - from fascia and breath patterns to nervous system regulation and behaviour. That understanding became personal when I realised I had lost access to my own expressive body.
Through years of performance, pressure, and chronic activation, I became disconnected from parts of myself. Rebuilding that connection meant returning to my voice, somatic practice, and play - learning how to feel safe in expression again. I also had to consciously develop emotional processing skills that weren’t modelled for me growing up, seeking out education and training to understand how to regulate, integrate, and work with emotion rather than suppress it.
I’ve trained in Human Garage fascial maneuvers, Les Mills Group Fitness Instruction, and as a Singing Athlete Vocal Coach, and I hold Reiki Master certification. At The Reset, I guide the somatic and physical layers of the work - helping you reconnect with your body, restore regulation, and rebuild trust in yourself from the inside out.
