When we want to clean our bodies, we use soap and water. A Gong Meditation uses sound and vibration to cleanse us on the inside - emotionally and physiologically. There is no water involved, nor clothes removed. 

Beneficial Sound Gong Meditations start with a brief explanation on the benefits of the gong, followed by a short breath exercise to promote the flow of energy and to create a receptive mind-body state for deep relaxation and meditation.

Participants then get comfortable either lying down (preferred) or a similar comfortable position. The Gongs are then played for 30 to 60 minutes to cleanse the subconscious and awaken the practitioner to a transcendent state of awareness.

During the Gong Meditation, multiple Gongs and mallets are used to bring out the full spectrum of beneficial vibrations and frequencies.

Just as a body massage works out tight and knotted muscles, the "sonic massage" of a Gong Meditation works out emotional issues that we need to release in order to move forward in life.

The listener only has to let go and let the sound of the Gongs do the work. The experience is effortless and the results profound. 

We gently build the sound and intensity of the Gongs while playing and then let the sound decay. The build and release cycles are deeply therapeutic.

Once the Gong playing is complete, there are a few minutes of silence.

This is a time of deep relaxation and expansion, where transformation and healing occur. This quiet time allows the listeners to receive the information that is most beneficial to them.

We conclude with sweets and community. 

Thank you for giving the beautiful gift of holistic healing through your music! I have been to many Gong Meditations but I loved the gentle yet powerful nature of your work. Such beautiful sounds. The experience was truly amazing.” Laura - Seattle, WA

This sample Gong Meditation uses tuned planetary Gongs and chakra realignment tubes to put the listener into a deep meditative state that can help balance and harmonize the mind, body and soul. Get comfortable. Block out distractions, use good headphones or speakers, and just breathe with sound and be the silent observer of what bubbles up and then release it with your exhalation.

A Gong Meditation is a unique and highly personal experience. The gong speaks to each one of us individually, meeting us wherever we are on our life journey. During the meditation, all levels of your Being - physical, energetic, emotional, mental and spiritual - will benefit from the deep, healing resonance of the gongs.

emotional cleansing

For most people, a Gong Meditation is a deeply relaxing and peaceful experience.

The Gongs work to have a clearing effect on emotional issues, breaking up limiting and negative thought patterns, and as a result, is an excellent therapy option for stress related issues, such as depression and anxiety.

Others go more deeply and may have profound healing experiences.

Energetic balancing

Gong Meditation is the practice of "re-tuning" the human being back to ideal frequencies via a universal physical and biological principle known as Sonic Entrainment. 

The human body knows what feels harmonious and tunes into what is needed during the meditation, and via sonic entrainment brings us back into harmonic balance, the peak of physical and emotional well-being.

PHYSICAL Stimulation

The vast range of rich overtones produced by the Gong deeply bathes every cell of the body - muscles, bones, organs, nervous system, etc. - and research* has shown that the sound can progressively destabilize the structure of cancer cells, ultimately leading to their explosion.

“Science is still catching up to understanding how sound heals, but the current research is promising. A review of 400 published scientific articles on music as medicine found strong evidence that music has mental and physical health benefits in improving mood and reducing stress.” Dr. Marilynn Wei - Psychology Today

Gong Meditation has been shown to have myriad additional physical and emotional benefits.

These include: improving flexibility and coordination, increasing endorphin levels, boosting immune and glandular functioning, reducing tension and regulating stress-related hormones, and even improving digestion.
