TUNING IN with Maranda

Music. Scent. Psychology. A live sensory experience.

About the Series

Tuning In with Maranda is an immersive event where music, fragrance, and psychology converge. Each session focuses on a single brain wave state — GAMMA, BETA, ALPHA, THETA, or DELTA — inviting you to notice how that frequency feels in your body and mind.

Through curated music, guided reflections, and psychoeducational insights, you’ll explore both the science and the felt experience of that state, using scent as an anchor to deepen the exploration. With your ticket, you’ll also receive a Halsonus Brain Wave candle matched to the theme. We’ll begin with a shared lighting ritual, and you’ll continue enjoying the aromatherapy well beyond our time together.

What to Expect

• A welcoming, thoughtfully designed setting

• An introduction to new music selected to embody the chosen brain wave state

• Guided reflections and psychoeducation led by licensed psychotherapist and Halsonus founder, Maranda Barskey

• A sensory ritual that blends art, science, and daily practice

• Your own Brain Wave candle, included with your ticket

Led by Maranda

Licensed psychotherapist Maranda Barskey brings together her clinical expertise, artistic background, and passion for sensory design in each event. Before founding Halsonus, she spent more than a decade in West Hollywood working as a holistic health counselor, yoga and meditation teacher, and fitness professional — guiding experiences that ranged from community studio classes to touring with Childish Gambino and hosting wellness events for companies including Genesis (luxury cars), Paul Smith (fashion), Josie Maran Cosmetics (beauty), Friends at Work (entertainment management), The Bay Club (fitness), and Whalerock Industries (tech). She also trained in acting at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts and maintains an active studio art practice.

Many Angelenos may remember her earlier project, Lyrically Induced Conversations, which had residencies at The Standard Hotel in West Hollywood and other cultural venues around Los Angeles. Tuning In is the evolution of that idea: still music-driven, still reflective, but now layered with the therapeutic design and functional fragrances of Halsonus.
