Chanting and Gong Bath
June 23, 2018 @ 12:30 - 14:30
For deeper relaxation, we encourage you to combine this session with a yoga class which starts at 11.15am and finishes at 12.15pm – total cost for the full 3 hours is £30 paid by bank transfer or cash on the day, more details in our Meetup group.
Chanting is believed to be very beneficial for helping emotional release. Emotions can “get stuck” in our body, which can result in deterioration of our wellbeing and health. Chanting can help your body release blockages. Chanting can also help the movement of energy in the body, which is believed to help natural healing processes. We hope you will feel wonderfully energised and rejuvenated afterward. These sensations need to be experience to comprehend them!
We will start with the basics of chanting techniques for anyone new to the practice.
During each session, we will focus on chanting sacred Sanskrit mantra’s (don’t worry, we will use straightforward mantras which are easier for Western audiences.) Many believe these mantras have power when recited and, especially, when repeated 108 times with a group. We will hand pick mantras for each session depending on the aim and theme of the week.
Chanting is easy – it doesn’t need any special preparation or any experience in singing. It isn’t about whether you sing to the notes or not – it is about the sounds of Sanskrit mantras, your intention behind it and coming together as a group. Anyone can do it! To start with, you may wish to soak in the atmosphere and observe; that’s fine too!
Gary from Holistic Healing Therapy has been chanting for years in different ancient spiritually significant locations, including the temples and Great Pyramid in Egypt, as well as Peru, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Ireland, Sedona and Mount Shasta in the USA, and ancient sites across England including Stonehenge. People participating or watching Gary report feeling more energy and a feeling of elevation.
Our Gong bath is designed to help you relax, rejuvenate, and get rid of tension. During the gong playing, the gong will “bathe” you in its sound vibrations (hence the names gong or sound bath), which the majority of people find to be a very relaxing, uplifting and pleasant experience.
Please, note that £1 from each ticket will be donated to Surrey Wildlife Trust http://www.surreywildlifetrust.org/ and http://www.wildlifeaid.org.uk/
