A gong bath is an immersive sound experience. During a gong bath, you sit or lie in front of a gong and listen to the unique tones as sound waves wash over you, 'bathing' you in sound. The soothing sound will effortlessly lull your mind into a meditative state, while the vibrations revitalize your body and help to release tension.

The session starts out with a brief introduction and a short guided meditation to help you settle into the experience. The gong will then play as you sit or lie comfortably and listen to the various sounds and feel any sensations that may come up. The session will conclude with a short silence followed by a few words to guide you back.

The sonic energy produced by a gong affects you at the mental and physical level. At the mental level, it can help to induce a meditative state by lowering brainwave frequencies and helping you ease into a space where the mind can rest and reset. Sound is also a force that can affect you physically. Water is an effective conductor of sound, and therefore our bodies are sound resonators. In addition, gong meditation activate the parasympathetic nervous system (known as the "rest and digest" system) and help brings about a profound state of relaxation

Group gong baths are managed by the self centre and are bookable through the website: https://www.the-self-centre.co.uk/workshops/ Please click on the above link for details of current and future group gong baths

Virtual sound baths are generally enjoyable for most people. However, if you have epilepsy or suffer from seizures, please talk to your doctor first. The sound can also induce a deep meditative experience that can bring up and/or release emotions. Anyone with a mental health concern should also speak with a doctor. In person gong baths are not suitable for anyone with a pacemaker, anyone who suffers from fits (epileptics), or anyone who is extremely sensitive to sound. They are also not recommended for women in the first trimester of pregnancy due to the unstable nature of pregnancy during that time. If you wear a hearing aid, your device should be turned off during the session. If you have any concerns, please speak with your doctor in advance. Please also let your instructor know at the start of the session if you have any concerns.

Reiki is a traditional form of hands on healing used to balance and relax the mind, body and spirit. This is a deeply healing and realxing experience.

An initial consultation will be taken, going through the information you have provided via the client questionnaire. You will then be invited to lie down on a therpy couch where the reiki healing will begin. Every session is different and individual as are we. High vibrational energy gets passed through the practitioner into the client, who then receives this energy. The energy flows to where it needs to go into the body, healing what needs to be healed first. Please note; Reiki will not always heal what the person believes needs to be healed first, it heals what is needed and works through the layers of the body.
