DAILY GROUNDING MEDITATION - 3 DAY GONG BATH
This sound immersion can be used in two ways, as a daily practice, using the first thrity minutes of the immersion and finshing before the gong bath. Or as a three-day practice, immerssing fully in the sound every three days. Or you might want to use as a daily practice going into the full immersion every 3 days. Either way, this is a weekly practice to help keep you grounded during these times - sound can be very good at transmuting our energy, dissipating anxiety and stress, bringing a more balanced state of mind. It can also allow shifts to happen in our energy body and so bring about changes in behaviours, allowing movement and positive change.
SOUND BATH CARE
It important to know that there is no right or wrong way to receive a sound bath. Some of you may find the sound activating, for others it may draw you into deep state of relaxation. The sound will give you what you need with the frequencies working on all the subtle energy bodies. If at any point you feel discomfort the best thing you can do is breathe into that space and allow the tension to release.
BEFORE AND AFTER YOUR MEDITATION
These Sound Immersions will work best if you are listening through headphones or good audio speakers, whatever is comfortable for you. It is important to allow yourself time before and after your meditation. Give yourself 15 mins to prepare your space. Light a candle, find a quiet, calm place where you can focus and feel comforable. Make yourself comfortable, have a blanket, mat, pillow ready so you can fully relax. Have water to hand as the sound can produce powerful clearing, shifting energy and moving toxins. The water allows us to flush through the toxins during and after the process.
After the meditation give yourself time to come round. If you need additional grounding get yourself outside and your feet on the ground. Drink plenty of water, it can take up to three days for the sound the fully integrate.
Observe and honour your body after your experience. The sound can produce strong emotions, as blockages are removed so they must first come to the surface. Sit with what comes, be kind to yourself, allow. Let those you live with know what you are working through so they know what to expect.
