Deep Relaxation Soundbath at Cowdray Hall, Midhurst

Sound and well-being Its important to make time for ourselves, and to look after our wellbeing. These sessions use a range of large gongs, played in a gentle and sensitive manner to help achieve a deep sense of relaxation and meditation which can help to restore the mind and body back to equilibrium. What to expect You will rest comfortably on the floor and listen to the sounds. You are not expected to do anything physically active. The session is aimed at relaxation and rest. Participants normally stay awake but reach a deep dreamlike state which can be extremely therapeutic for both the mind and body. No previous experience is needed, and all will be explained before the session. What to bring Please bring a mat (yoga mat/camping mat etc), one or two blankets, a pillow, eye covering and a bottle of water. I do have spare mats available if requested in advance. How to prepare The sound therapy session is a 2 way process, a connection made between you and the sound. Please arrive 15 minutes early to get settled in advance. When you arrive take the time to rest quietly in the gong space, slow down your breathing, clear the mind and relax. The more prepared you are the greater the benefit you will feel. Please enjoy the quiet space when you arrive and respect others around you who will be preparing too. Contact me in advance if you are unsure of directions to the venue. Arrival Please arrive 15 minutes early to ensure you are ready for the sound session to begin on time. Due to the nature of the sound meditation, late arrivals cannot be admitted.
