Sometimes we can experience feelings of anxiety, fear and sadness in a gong bath. This can be off-putting for some people, and yet at the same time it's important to remember that we all carry such emotions, and it's part of the human experience to have them! The very nature of such feelings means that we often push them away and they can lie buried deep within our unconscious, sometimes emerging as unconscious patterns, unhealthy habits, co-dependent relationships and even dis-ease.

I think its helpful to see a gong bath like a physical massage; just as stress and tension can get stuck in the body we can benefit from the physical manipulation to ease out the knots and move the energy on. It's the same with the gongs except the frequencies of the gongs goes deeper to massage the physical, mental, spiritual and emotional bodies - releasing trapped energy on all levels. Sometimes this may include past trauma, an old injury, unresolved grief etc.

If we can get past any temporary discomfort (for everything is in a constant state of flux and movement), we can benefit from the relief, lightness and clarity after a gong bath without having to revisit or even remember it.

“A  fantastic, immersive experience which left me feeling cleansed, nourished and restored. Immediately afterwards I felt tranquil and extremely relaxed and headed for bed. Followed by eight hours of deep sleep, the next day I was aware of a feeling of euphoria, together with a sense of being re-energised “ (Simon)
