The SonicTrance Gong Bath produces a transportive experience of sonic trance. Gongs are ancient instruments, and their vibrant timbres and full-spectrum harmonics produce powerful, mysterious, and captivating sounds. Gongs help to release, clear, and rebalance your subtle body and nervous system, and the experiences they inspire can catalyze transformation and healing.
Your journey will begin with a brief guided form of relaxation called Yoga Nidra (yogic sleep). This will help you to relax, shift your attention inward and open yourself to the vibrational frequencies, the sonic textures, tonal qualities, and harmonic richness offered by Loriel's beautiful eight gong ensemble (with additional sonic delights)!
The SonicTrance Gong Bath showcases the gong’s unique voice in the realm of sound healing and sound meditation. If you like gongs you’ll love this event! And if you are new to the sound of the gong, or just beginning to explore sound baths, tonight will offer a wonderful opportunity to dive into the deep end of the pool of vibrational healing.
