Group Gong Journey

Welcoming you to a beautiful mid-week evening gong journey, offering you the chance to be transported with the gong into deep rest and meditation.

A 90 minute experience of relaxation and gong meditation with time to gently return to daily life through quiet rest with herbal tea. All set in the most beautiful venue close to Dunwich Beach with floor to ceiling courtyard views.

What will happen?

You are invited to sit or lie in a comfortable position and begin to sink into your body through guided meditation. This is followed by an immersion in the transformative soundscape of gongs, singing bowls and other grounding instruments to bring balance to body, mind and soul.

Gong baths are associated with deep relaxation by activating the parasympathetic nervous system bringing you into a state of rest and digest. Many people experience feelings of deep peace, balance, and calm whilst others feel grounded, focused or energised. Gong meditation is associated with dropping people into theta and delta brainwaves (those associated with sleep) and therefore many people can experience sleepiness, drowsiness and the letting go of anxiety, stress or tension. The restorative benefits of sleep are well-documented and the dropping into these brain states is thought to explain why, for many, the benefits of gong baths are so powerful.

Occasionally, people may feel emotional during or following a gong bath as our vibrations and energies shift and change. This is normal and feelings of discomfort often change and ease with the changing sounds.

The journey with the gong will be channelling the 'highest good' to bring you the sounds which are right for you and all that is required is an openess to receiving these sounds.

What do I need to bring?

You will be sent a full list of what to bring upon booking however, bring whatever you need to be warm and comfortable including, cosy blankets, something padded to lie on, an eye pillow and extra layers. Your temperature drops during deep relaxation so bring more than you think you will need to be warm.

Who is this not suitable for?

Gong meditation is not suitable for pregnancy, people experiencing severe mental health conditions or sound induced epilepsy. Those with metal implants, pace makers, heart conditions, vertigo and sound sensitivities are advised to seek medical advice prior to attending a gong bath. Some people who use hearing aids or devices may find gong sound uncomfortable. Your comfort is key, if you have difficulty lying on the floor for 60-90 minutes, please contact me to discuss alternative options.

Whilst all participants are asked to fill in a risk questionairre, I am not a medical professional and participants attend at their own risk and taking full responsbility for their own health and wellbeing.

Concessions

It is my aim to make gong sessions as inclusive as possible and whilst the fee for the session reflects the quality, length and location of the gong bath, I am aware that in a challenging economic climate, this may be out of reach for some. If you would like to attend but are unable to pay the full cost, I always offer a limited number of partially and fully funded spaces per session. Please contact me to book. No questions asked.
