Gongs of Joy Offer Healing Sounds<br />
Joy Quinn Blum will host gong bath meditations<br />
on October 5, 14 and 26, in <strong>Providence</strong>, North<br />
Kingstown and East <strong>Providence</strong>. Blum plays the<br />
gongs, Tibetan singing bowls, rattles, drums and<br />
other vibrational healing instruments to help bring<br />
people to a state of relaxation, harmony, and peace.<br />
After a gong bath meditation, individuals often report<br />
feeling a sense of renewed energy and vitality.<br />
Blum believes that the resonant vibrations of<br />
the gongs and bowls create a harmonic attunement<br />
for physical, emotional and spiritual well-being.<br />
The sound experience allows participants to move<br />
into a dream-like state while waves of gong tones<br />
wash over them and gently restores and harmonizes<br />
body, mind and spirit. These vibrational overtones offer emotional stress release,<br />
chakra alignment, clearing of energy blocks and spontaneous healing.<br />
Gongmaster Joy studied the gongs with Grand Gongmaster Don Conreaux,<br />
and played for about six years with an ensemble called Resonant Voices of the<br />
Spheres. She has been playing solo for the past three years at various yoga studios,<br />
dojos, healing centers and holistic health expos around Rhode Island, Connecticut<br />
and Massachusetts. She is an energy healer, holistic psychotherapist and health<br />
coach/nutritional counselor practicing in the central Rhode Island area.<br />
