Gong Bath

What is a gong bath?

A gong bath is a form of sound healing meditation growing in popularity as a modern healing technique. It is referred to as a bath due to participants being immersed in the vibrations of the instruments during a session. These vibrations or sound waves are produced using instruments such as singing bowls, percussion, gongs, and chimes.

What are the benefits of a gong bath?

Gong baths are often described as having transformational effects on body, mind, and spirit.

Among the benefits are relaxation, an increased sense of wellbeing, expanded awareness and a rebalancing of energies. More specifically, when something within us is out of tune it can cause dis-ease to arise in our bodies. Factors such as stress, anger, or trauma in our daily lives can manifest on a physical, emotional, mental and spiritual level. The vibrations produced in a sound/gong bath help to “retune” your body and therefore aid in restoring harmony and resonance throughout.

What should I expect during a gong bath?

Each person’s experience is, of course, unique but it’s possible for gong bathers to have a range of experiences from deep relaxation to visions, epiphanies, to creative solutions, and even psychedelic-like journeys. The best way to understand is to experience it.
