About

May Nogoy in collaboration with experienced practicioners offer healing modalities in support of personal well being and deeper relation to others and nature.

Sound is held as a subtle practice. Through vibration and frequency, it supports parasympathetic response, emotional regulation, and mental clarity allowing the system to settle into coherence.

Tea is approached as a disciplined path of service and simplicity, held with respect for living tea as medicine for a meditative mind.

Alongside community offerings include private sessions, retreats, in-residence service, and collaborations integrated with care, discretion, and long-term consideration.

Sessions are held within Pacific Place Apartments in partnership with The Upper House, as well as through off-site retreats and collaborations.

At our core is a simple understanding: when attention is steady, the body settles; when the body settles, clarity returns.

Thank you, although those two words are not enough to convey how much meaning you’ve given me in my practice and my life thruough yoga, and through your gong/sound sessions, and quite profoundly through tea.

I have had the privelege of knowing May for many years, and her presence has always felt like a gentle invitation to slow down, reconnect, and rise above the noise of daily life. She has a truly special touch one that goes beyond technique. Whether it is going through meditation, sound baths, tea ceremony, or creating sacred spaces she holds for women, she offers a rare kind of nourishment that is both grounding and elevating. She is the heart of the women’s community, a quiet leader who brings people together in the most meaningful ways. Her voice, her energy, even her silence have frequency shifting quality. It is something you feel the moment you step into a space she helps hold for you…
