Gong Bath Benefits

• Stress Reduction and Relaxation: Immerse yourself in the powerful tones of a gong bath and feel the weight of stress and tension dissolve. The soothing vibrations work to calm the nervous system, promoting deep relaxation and a sense of tranquility.

• Enhanced Meditation and Mindfulness: The resonant sounds of the gong act as a gateway to deeper states of meditation and mindfulness. As the mind becomes entrained to the gong’s frequencies, it becomes easier to access a state of inner stillness, heightened awareness, and expanded consciousness.

• Emotional Release and Healing: The vibrational qualities of the gong have the ability to penetrate deep within the energetic and emotional layers of our being. A gong bath can facilitate the release of stagnant emotions, allowing for catharsis, inner healing, and a renewed sense of emotional well-being.

• Renewed Energy and Vitality: The dynamic interplay of sound during a gong bath can help restore the natural flow of energy within the body. As the gong’s vibrations gently stimulate and realign the body’s energy centers, a sense of revitalization and balance can be experienced.

• Personal Growth and Transformation: The transformative nature of gong baths invites profound personal growth and self-discovery. Through the practice of surrendering to the sounds of the gong, one can explore hidden aspects of the self, gain clarity, and open the door to new possibilities.

The science behind

There is a growing body of research that points to the benefits of gong baths. A 2015 study pertaining to gong baths found that participants perceived the sound vibrations to have a relaxing effect. Meanwhile, more studies linking music therapy to health benefits are beginning to stack up.

Other Traditional Sound Healing Techniques: Didgeridoo and Gong

The gong is a potentially powerful vibrational instrument that has captivated many globally.71 In fact, the Chinese traditional Five Elements philosophy was applied quite recently to music by Hao et al to examine the physiological effects of the gong, as well as other instruments on rats. It was discovered that when the gong was played for rats, this powerful instrument increased levels of the excitatory and motivational neurotransmitter glutamic acid and decreased the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA).

Biography

Geraldine Emmanuelle comes from a contemporary art background. She is a performer, a curator, a musician and a reviewer with two MAs in Fine Art. She has been using sounds in her artistic career for 30 years. After numerous exhibitions in the UK and abroad, she began a healing journey, merging her previous art and intellectual knowledge with her healing skills.

She is a Reiki Master and Teacher. She came across sound healing ten years ago, becoming a Gong/Sound Healer practitioner with three gong/sound healing diplomas from Baba Don Conreaux lineage.

Chanting and using her voice is fundamental in her everyday equilibrium. She creates her own song and mantras, and loves bringing the ancient ones to balance and smooth group sessions.

She is a certified Animal Healer and a member of Elizabeth Whiter’s ‘Healing Animals Organisation’ in West Sussex. She is also a seated acupressure massage practitioner.

Since her childhood she was immersed in a family using plants and herbal medicines. Indeed, her ancestors were the first ones to introduce homoeopathy texts and books in France.

Reiki Usui is part of her lifestyle and she integrates it perfectly in her daily routine, to offer treatments to her loved ones, to animals and to all in need. She cherishes this soft and gentle healing practice with the ethics and wisdom that goes with it. Geraldine continues to learn different healing methodologies to enrich herself and to gain more skills to offer the best treatment to her patients and patients to be. She works with gems, essentials oils, medicinal plants, flower remedies, and has created her own range of vibrational holistic products.

Geraldine practises self care regularly to elevate herself spiritually, energetically and mentally. She has collaborated with numerous holistic practitioners, and is now involved with Yin yoga teachers to include sessions with the vibrations of the gongs and her intuitive sound healing.

She has been doing her own Gong Bath and Sound Healing Circles in London for a number of years now.
