Our gong baths offer a powerful opportunity to enjoy a deep meditative state while your energy is brought back into resonance.
I offer gong baths and sound therapy in scheduled public group sessions, as well as privately to individuals, couples, groups, companies, and events.Reaching you on the deepest level
A gong bath, or gong meditation, is a totally immersive mind and body experience. You can think of it as an induced meditation, but it offers so much more…
A masterfully crafted gong can be an incredibly powerful tool: a uniquely resonant instrument that produces long rolling waves of vibrations with layer upon layer of rich harmonic undertones and overtones. The sound isn’t only received by your ears, but the frequencies resonate through your whole being. In this way, the music of the gong induces meditation while facilitating balancing and healing on a mental, emotional, physical, and energetic level.
Attending a gong bath is a deeply relaxing, restorative, and healing experience. They are easy for anybody to access, as all that is required of you is to lie or sit comfortably, covered, wrapped, or supported in whatever way you choose.
“As a former professional musician, and practicing music educator, I have a great appreciation for sound. Music is the organisation of vibrations. It is my belief that music is the innate language of the universe. It is our experience of life way before any other sense develops. So music reaches us on the deepest possible level. It’s my great honour to be able to offer these beautiful, healing vibrations to you.”
Gong Meditation
Joining a ReShape gong bath will make available to you a deeply relaxed, meditative state. Many people find it difficult to meditate, but in the course of this gong bath, the process of the evening and the sound of the gong will take you there.
Your brainwaves will drop into Theta frequency (4-7.5Hz) – this is the realm of your subconscious mind. These waves are present during deep meditation and light sleep, including the REM dream state. They offer a sense of deep spiritual connection and oneness with the Universe.
You may then drop deeper into Delta frequency (0.5-4Hz) – the realm of your unconscious mind. These are the slowest brain waves and are present in deep, dreamless sleep and in very deep meditation where awareness is completely detached. Delta is associated with deep healing and regeneration.
So without any effort on your behalf (other than presence and willingness) and before you know it, you will have spent an extended period in deep meditation. There are countless benefits to be sought from having spent time in this state – to summarise in short, a better functioning body and mind.
Sound/Vibrational Therapy
There is nothing solid in the universe, just tiny pockets of vibrating energy – atoms. Vibration is the substance of creation. When all of the molocules that comprise our body vibrate freely at their optimum frequencies, our body is in harmony and energy flows. We flow. When vibrational energy is disrupted – due to stress, illness, inflammation, electro-magnetic radiation or other factors – energy blockages arise and things become much harder for us physically and mentally. Entrainment is the process by which a frequency will cause another to gradually to fall into synchrony with it. By setting the right conditions and working with vibrations – the sound of the gong – we can bring your body back into resonance and harmony. Anyone interested in “energy” will appreciate the gong as a powerful instrument of multidimensional change.
Sound Journeying
Having your attention drawn to sound for an extended period of time declutters the mind, clears emotional blockages, and helps alleviate physical aches and pains. But there is more to the sound journey than that. We have a deeply intimate experience with sound – it is the first sense we experience, long before the others, in our mother’s womb. The comforting low beating of the heart, and the soothing vibrations from murmering voices. So the third way in which our gong baths create connection, grounding, and movement in you is through the rich and focused sound experience itself.
