Healing sound bath with John HoftonEach Thursday throughout 2025, 11.45am – 12.45pm
Join John Hofton for a healing sound bath here at the Monastery, Manchester. For those of you wishing to lie down for the session, please bring a blanket.
*Please note, John Hofton will be away on the 10th & 17th of April and the 8th May, 2025. An alternative healing sound bath will be offered by practitioners, Christian Platts on these dates, using a range of indigenous and traditional instruments.
SOUND HEALING & RELAXATION
Sound healing is recognised as an aid to deep relaxation, increased energy flow and is a way to still the mind and feel more connected to your inner core.
John uses a wide selection of highly resonant sound healing instruments in these sessions: e.g. Tibetan singing bowls, Traditional American Indian drone flute, Gemshorn, Dream Chau gong , Sacred Solfeggio Tuning forks and Tubular Bells and
Quartz singing bowls.
This is a gentle, refined and subtle form of healing which works holistically – on mind, body and spirit.
Feel more relaxed, calmer, happier, more energised and in balance.
