THIS ALLOWS TIME TO CHANGE THE MATS AND WIPE DOWN ALL SURFACES AND CLEAN THE FLOOR ETC. BLANKETS, CUSHIONS, EYE MASKS AND BOLSTERS WILL NOT BE PROVIDED FOR THE MOMENT BUT MATS WILL AND THESE WILL BE CHANGED AFTER EACH SESSION SO PLEASE BRING WHAT YOU NEED TO BE COMFORTABLE. NUMBES ARE RESTRICTED SO BOOKING IS ESSENTIAL. THERE IS NO DROP IN AND PREPAYMENT IS REQUIRED.

There is information on the previous gong baths with each entry. As many of you know who come regulary, all you have to do is lie on a mat so you are comfortable, close your eyes and relax. The gongs are played in different ways so there is no fixed rythmn and this means that the brain in unable to follow something predictable and entrainment takes place. Entrainment is the changing of brainwave frequencies.

Alpha brainwave state is achieved very quickly and is followed by the Theta brainwave state. Alpha waves are between 8 and 12 Hz. and include activity such as daydreaming and  imagination and these waves are present in states of relaxation.

Theta waves are brainwave frequencies between 4 and 7 Hz. and occur when we are in dreamingsleep - or REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, and they also occur during meditation. 

Theta brainwave frequencies are often where the gongs will take you as you enter a very relaxed meditative state and this is a wonderful state of conciousness to be in for healing to occur.

BOOKING ESSENTIAL. £15/SESSION

Refreshments afterwards if the weather is fine and we can go outside- herb teas, chocolate, fruit, dates and minerl water. Please bring your own water bottle if you would like to take this into the studio.
