Sound Bath Relaxation Workshop

You may think the term Sound bath feels a bit intangible. However, these often intense experiences use gongs, singing bowls and nature inspired percussion to envelop your mind in soothing frequencies. It is a great way to relieve stress, find genuine inner connection with yourself and undergo emotional healing. Participants often find they come away feeling more centred, grounded and with a renewed with purpose. If, like many, you find traditional forms of meditation difficult to engage with, sound baths can be a gentler way to step into that headspace and reap the rewards.

Join yoga teacher and sound bath specialist Lee Bloomfield for an hour long sound bath session. You’ll start similarly to a yoga class by focusing on the breath before being bathed in waves of sounds cascading around the room. During this experience your mind might wander to the lesser explored areas of your consciousness, the gongs and bowls guiding you through it. Allow yourself to explore these thoughts with curiosity soundtracked by natural and visceral sonics. Towards the end you’ll be invited and shown how to reground yourself in the present, giving you chance to re-enter your day gracefully and peacefully.

There will be mats, blankets and eye pillows provided by Yoga Hero, however, participants are welcome to bring their own layers. Typically, all the bathers lie down for the duration of the sound bath so it’s advised to bring whatever props, pillows or blankets you need to feel comfortable in that position. Participants are recommended to dress warmly and bring a bottle of water.
