About this session
- Eases emotional weight
- Calms the mind
- Supports quiet focus
- Winds down evenings
Letting Go is an eight minute binaural soundscape by Gabriel Loynaz. There is no voice and nothing to follow. You put on headphones, lower the lights and let a steady layered tone surround you while your attention softens and your breathing slows on its own.
It suits the end of a long day, when your mind is still carrying conversations and worries. Play it before sleep, during a quiet pause when a heavy feeling needs room to pass, or as a gentle backdrop for calm, unhurried focus.

Questions people ask
Still unsure? Ask your assistant anything about this session.
What am I actually hearing in this soundscape?
It is a binaural soundscape, which means steady layered tones designed to be heard through headphones. There are no words, no instructions and nothing to follow. You simply let the sound stay in the background of your attention.
Why do I need headphones for Letting Go?
Binaural sound relies on slightly different tones reaching each ear, so it is meant to be heard through headphones. Through speakers, the effect is much less noticeable. Keep the volume low and comfortable.
How can a sound with no voice help me let go?
With no words to follow, your mind has nothing to analyse, so it can drift away from the day's stories. The steady sound gives your attention a soft place to rest while heavy feelings pass in their own time.
Is this for sleep or for focus?
Its best time is night, and it works well as an unwinding step before sleep. It is also tagged for focus, so you can use it in a quiet moment when you want calm, undistracted attention. Choose it by how you want to feel: settled and soft, rather than energised.
Should I do anything while it plays?
You don't need to. Turn the lights low, get comfortable and let the sound carry on. If a feeling or thought comes up, let it be there without chasing it, and return to the sound whenever you notice.
