Overview
About this session
Club Chi is about connecting to your inner peace and wellbeing. Tai Chi Qigong, Gong Baths and Wellness Workshops.
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.
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 minutes
Contraindications: As with any therapy, a Gong Bath Meditation may be unsuitable for some people. For example: 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 via We Offer Wellness.

What to expect
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.

I joined Club Chi a few months ago and was attending in person prior to the lock down. I was really pleased Lorraine was able to set up access online once we werent able to actually attend the sessions, as I missed the opportunity. 2019 was a very difficult year for me and I felt I needed something to help me re-establish myself. The idea of Tai Chi had always appealed to me, but I had never had the opportunity before, so I was pleased when I found this class. The sessions provide me with the one hour during a week where I just focus on how I feel and the here and now. It provides calm to concentrate on me and helps relieve the tension of the day to day. After the session I feel relaxed and calm which helps me to refocus on what is important. I am really pleased I found this class and hope to continue to experience its benefits for some time to come. I would highly recommend anyone to give it a go. Its all inclusive for any age and fitness level. Keep up the good work Club Chi

Ive been doing one of the online club chi classes weekly for a couple of months now and its become an integral part of my week. I’d never done tai chi before but was made to feel welcome and Ian made it easy to pick up the moves and link them together over time. In the current crazy world especially, I love the relaxed inward focus of the class and I always feel both physically and mentally refreshed afterwards. Keep up the good work guys!

I just spent the day with Club Chi at their Virtual Vitality Day. The day was a wonderful experience. There was lots of content and things to learn but best of all was the end result. By the end of the day, I felt thoroughly relaxed and chilled both physically and emotionally. Make this day part of your self-care and it will be totally worth your while. Thank you guys x
