What is a Sound Bath?A Sound Bath is a meditative experience which a group of people lie down and listen to resonate sounds, using gongs, singing bowls and other percussion.
Sounds have been used as a form of healing dating back to ancient cultures. Records of using gongs are know from as early as ancient Egyptian, Greek and Roman times.
It’s a way of releasing anxiety, soothes the nervous system, and blocks the ideas and thoughts from your conscious as you connect to your body. It shuts off your body’s fight or flight reflex. It allows the brain to relax into alpha -dominant or theta-dominant brainwave states
