Gong Ho<br />

With an increasing number of people touting the benefits<br />

of sound bathing we decided to try for ourselves<br />

Sound bathing<br />

The USP Meditation without the aggravation of moving.<br />

The playing of instruments such as gongs and crystal<br />

bowls produces powerful vibrations that help you block<br />

out the outside world and induce a restful, meditative<br />

state. Think of it as a digital detox.<br />

What happens? You are placed in a lying position on a<br />

yoga mat and covered with a blanket whilst wearing an<br />

eye mask. After a short meditative exercise the gong<br />

begins and lasts for around 30 minutes. At the end of this<br />

bells bring you back into the room.<br />

What does it feel like? The sound cocoons you from the<br />

outside world; being close to the gong means you feel<br />

the vibrations, something physical as well as audible. The<br />

vibrations can be super intense, so there is definitely a<br />

physical sensation. The vibrations are also meant to lower<br />

body temperatures, hence the slowing down of heart<br />

rates and the possible need for a nice comfy blanket. The<br />

end result is a definite change of mindset.<br />

Does it work? You’ll be energised with clarity of thought.<br />

You’re left with a feeling of positivity and euphoria.<br />
