What is a Gong Bath

A Gong Bath Meditation is a form of sound therapy and can be effective in achieving a deep state of relaxation.  The sound of the gongs and other instruments work not only on an auditory level, but a vibrational one too.  This vibrational energy may help remove energy blockages in the body.

What you may experience during a Gong Bath Meditation

 Participants often report a feeling of complete bliss and relaxation; a feeling of connection and surrendering to the sounds and vibrations of the gongs.

Some have spiritual experiences and feel deeply connected to the Universal Energy, or receive guidance in a dream-like vision.  You may see colours, or experience different sensations in your body. 

For some, there may be a release of emotions or energy and, whilst this may initially feel unsettling, you're in a completely safe space to allow your body to let go of what it is ready to release.

And others feel themselves go into a deep sleep/state of relaxation until they are gently brought back at the end of the journey.

Everyone's experience is unique - not only within the group, but every time you experience a Gong Bath Meditation.  Everything is energy and our personal energy, as well as that of the gongs, will be different each and every time.

All we ask is to trust you will receive from the session exactly what you need at the time. 

Benefits of a Gong Bath Meditation

Gong Bath Meditations are beneficial for those who find traditional meditation difficult, as it enables our conscious mind to focus on the sounds and vibrations of the gongs. 

Sound Therapy has been shown to help treat conditions such as depression, high blood pressure and pain.

Additional positive effects may include:

• Reducing stress and anxiety
• Reduction of chronic pain
• Improved sleep
• Improved energy levels and reduction of fatigue and lethargy
• Improved cognitive function

 Duration: 60 min

• first trimester of pregnancy;
• people with pacemakers or metal plates/joints;
• those suffering from serious heart conditions;
• acute or serious mental health issues; or
• those who may suffer from sound-induced epilepsy.

It's always better to be safe than sorry so, if in any doubt, please contact us before booking.
