A sound bath is a therapeutic experience where participants are immersed in various sound frequencies produced by instruments like singing bowls and gongs, promoting relaxation and inner healing. During a session, participants lie down comfortably while the sound vibrations help induce a meditative state, reducing stress and promoting overall well-being.

During a sound bath, your body undergoes several physiological changes influenced by the vibrations of sound. As the soothing sounds permeate the space, your nervous system begins to relax, leading to a decrease in heart rate, blood pressure, and cortisol levels, which are associated with stress. Simultaneously, your brain enters a state of deep relaxation, characterized by increased alpha and theta brainwave activity, promoting a sense of calm and inner peace. These effects facilitate the release of tension stored within the body, allowing for a profound experience of physical and emotional well-being.

It’s great for anyone seeking stress relief, relaxation, or a deeper connection to themselves.

Be sure to read class descriptions for instructions on what to bring. Depending on the space, you’ll want a yoga mat, any items to stay comfortable (extra blanket or pillow), or water. Some participants like to have a moment of reflection at the end and bring a journal.

The experience shouldn't cause any pain or discomfort; rather, it aims to create a soothing environment conducive to relaxation. Participants may feel deep relaxation, heightened awareness, and emotional release as sounds envelop them. Vibrations from instruments like singing bowls and gongs resonate throughout the body, creating tingling sensations and promoting clarity and insight. Sensations vary, but commonly contribute to a profound sense of relaxation, rejuvenation, and inner exploration.

Individuals with sensory sensitivity or other medical conditions that may be adversely affected by sound and meditation practices are not recommended and should approach with caution.

These sessions are not intended to diagnose, treat, or cure any medical conditions. For any questions, please consult with your healthcare provider before participating.

Great! Falling asleep during a sound bath is common and generally encouraged, as it indicates a deep state of relaxation.

Etiquette simply involves being mindful of others' experiences. Arrive early to settle in the space and refrain from talking or making disruptive noises during the session.

Sound baths are safe for children, but are encouraged to attend family or children focused sound sessions. Sound baths are generally for 14 years old and up and while children can participate, it’s essential to consider their ability to remain quiet and still during the meditation for the benefit of the others.
