A restful hour immersed in sound surrounded by the forest yet cosy within the beautifully warm Oak Lodge building, nestled amongst the trees.
An immersive live sound scape creating a supportive space within which you may rest, sleep, dream, meditate, renew and rebalance. Come as you are, take what is needed.
The sound bath begins with a nature inspired guided meditation to honour our place in the lunar cycle, offering you the opportunity to create intention for your practice, flowing into the sounds as you lay or sit comfortably on your mat, simply allowing the sounds to wash over you as you rest.
Instruments played can include gongs, drum, chimes, voice, monochord and singing bowls.
What this experience offers:
A live, immersive and intuitively created soundscape.
Space to rest away from distractions of every day life and technology.
A chance to turn inwards and focus on yourself.
Potential benefits for you:
Restore balance to your nervous system.
Experience a deep state of rest / relaxation.
Harmonise your emotional state.
Release of stress and tension or stuck emotions.
Enhance creativity and intuition.
Considerations - A sound meditation is relaxing and restful for many guests; however, sound is powerful and has the potential to evoke memories and stir emotions. With this in mind, coming to a sound bath may not be suitable for you if you experience any of the following: sound induced epilepsy, have an implanted medical device including pacemaker, cochlear implant, or deep brain stimulator, acute/severe mental health concerns, are in crisis currently or experiencing active addiction, Meniere's disease, sound hypersensitivity or any health condition triggered by sound, or if you are in the first trimester of pregnancy.
It is also common to drift to sleep at times in a sound bath, so if you suffer from sleep apnoea a group session is likely not the best way to experience sound – in this instance please get in touch with the facilitator for a confidential discussion before you book.
Please do not attend if you have a contagious illness, thank you.

HIGH LODGE
This site is in the middle of the forest making it a magical location - however this does mean that on occasions when there are high winds, the site sometimes make the decision to close for safety. In the unlikely event that this should happen on the date of our session I will reach out to let you know as soon as I have this information. Sound and Ground reserves the right in such instances to relocate this session to an alternative venue for safety within a 10 mile radius of High Lodge.
