A relaxing Gong Bath** with guided meditation led by Becky Rutter.
Using gongs, singing bowls and other instruments to create a deeply meditative experience that aids in stress reduction and encourages deep relaxation through the vibration and frequency of the gongs. Gongs have the power to transform your perspective, taking you on a cosmic journey offering the opportunity for healing and relaxation on all levels and the space to tune in to your core self. Participants are still for the duration of the gong bath (seated or lying) so please bring any items you need for your comfort - yoga mat, cushions/pillows, sunlounger etc.
Tickets £15 and include a free herbal tea to enjoy before or after the session.
**Gong Baths completely immerse, or bathe, you in sound, allowing you to experience a way to let go and take time out from every day life. Each experience of a Gong Bath will be unique and people are often presented with the experience that they need in the moment. Some people fall asleep, some experience visions, some see colour, others have physical sensations. Participants lay on a yoga mat or padded mat for the duration of the Gong Bath. After settling in with some breath work or guided relaxation the gongs will be played alongside a variety of instruments including; shruti box, crystal singing bowls, singing bowls, drums and of course the voice. Following a gong bath people often report increased feelings of wellbeing, contentment and balance, improved sleep quality, reduction in feelings of stress or anxiety alongside other physical benefits.
There are some medical conditions where participating in a gong bath is unsuitable. If you have a medical condition/concerns and are unsure if a gong bath is suitable for you, please contact the gong bath practitioner directly via email [email protected]
*Please note, the Muse Café will be open from 5pm for you to relax and unwind with a herbal tea and enjoy the ambience.
