Full Moon Group Gong Bath Meditation

In every community, there is work to be done. In every nation, there are wounds to heal. In every heart, there is the power to do it Full Moon Gong Bath Meditation The gong is a supportive tool for the manifestation of our harmonious physical, mental, and emotional being. The OM tone of a gong creates total silence within. The sustained tone of a gong creates timelessness. The building of its tone combinations create a sense of levitation or lightness. It is the unique quality of a gong’s resonance that integrates diverse elements into a power of synergy, or functional harmony. We also call the tone produced by the gong a “feeling tone,” because we feel it in our body, as well as hear it. In my mindfulness meditation workshop, awareness of sound is not used as a therapy, but rather as an anchor for the mind to come back to. Just like being mindful of breath, being mindful of sound requires finding a happy balance between vigilance and relaxation. Gong meditation is a unique type of sound practice that involves using therapeutic gong sounds and vibrations to bring about healing. Most people who participate in gong bath meditation are lying down on meditation mats. Add a pillow and a light blanket and all you’ll need to do is rest in a comfortable position, relax and close your eyes. During the gong bath meditation, the gong sound is changed frequently to avoid producing a fixed, monotonous rhythm. The auditory stimuli of the gong bath process lead to entrainment, a form of beneficially modified brainwave frequencies. The first brainwave state to be reached is alpha, which is associated with creativity and feelings of relaxation. In this state, people experience daydreams, associative thinking and an animated imagination. This state is quickly followed by an influx of theta brainwaves, which lead the participant to a deep meditative state. The personal ego is then able to attain a state of non-judgment or neutrality. This is the state of total body and mind harmony. Refund Policies Refund can be arranged 7 days prior to the events. Non refundable processing fee from Eventbrite will be deducted from the fee.
