About this session
- Eases tension
- Deepens stillness
- Invites oneness
- Softens bedtime
Surrendering Into Aum is a 28-minute sound with no voice and no instructions, made by Daniel Schotsborg. Layers of natural texture drift slowly around the deep resonance of Aum, so there is nothing to follow or get right. You simply listen and let the sound do the work.
It suits the edges of your day: early morning before the world asks things of you, or late at night when you want to put the day down. Use it whenever you want quiet company and a feeling of being part of something larger.

Questions people ask
Still unsure? Ask your assistant anything about this session.
What am I actually hearing in this soundscape?
You hear natural textures blended with the sound of Aum, with no spoken voice. It is meant to be heard rather than followed, so there are no cues or steps. The details are best discovered by listening.
What does Aum mean here?
Aum is an ancient syllable often chanted in meditation and associated with a sense of unity. In this track it acts as the anchor beneath the natural sounds. You don't need to chant or know its meaning to benefit from it.
What does surrendering mean when there is nothing to do?
It means giving up the effort of managing your thoughts. With no voice asking anything of you, you can let attention rest on the sound and let it wander and return. If your mind drifts, nothing needs correcting.
Why is it suggested for early morning and late night?
These are the moments when you are least occupied by tasks. In the morning it can set a quiet tone before the day fills up. At night it offers a gentle way to release the day before sleep.
How is this different from a guided meditation?
A guided meditation uses a voice to lead your attention. This sound leaves that space open, so you set your own pace. It suits you if you prefer to sit, lie down or rest with the sound alone.
