Somatic Breathwork & Gong Bath Meditation
May

Somatic Breathwork & Gong Bath Meditation

This unique offering will be about letting go and surrendering to the things that no longer serve you, and creating room for love and self expression.  Be sure to come with an intention on what you want to create or wish to release.

The event will begin by priming the body through breathwork led by Bryce Gubler. We will explore the complex relationship between oxygenating our cells, the rhythm of the breath and the immediate and profound impact it has on our body. Ultimately, creating the perfect conditions to release any trapped emotions or stagnant energy that no longer serves you.

We will then transition into a cosmic sound journey using eight Planet Gongs, all masterfully played by Wayne Marto. This powerful combination of breath and gong work will allow you to consciously relax and receive in profound ways, bringing all levels of the body, mind, and spirit into harmony. 

What to Bring: The Gong Meditation is best experienced lying down on your back or in a similar comfortable position. Wear comfortable clothes and bring whatever you need to be relaxed for the meditation - yoga mat, blanket, bolster, pillow, water, eye mask, etc. It's suggested to not eat for at least a few hours before breathwork.

Gong Meditation: Promotes relaxation and stress relief - Restores vibrational balance and mind-body harmony - Stimulates immune system and glandular functioning - Encourages the movement of life force energy - Can clear habitual negative thought patterns - Supports deep, spontaneous meditation- Can improve creativity, will-power and confidence - Advances spiritual exploration and self-discovery .

About your hosts: Wayne Marto is the Founding Director of Beneficial Sound, a 501(c)3 nonprofit committed to bringing wellness to the mind, body and soul through sound and vibration. He is a life-long musician who has played studied the gong extensively for over eight years and has played more than 600 Gong Bath Meditations since 2015, developing an authentic style of playing, infused with passion and intention, that promotes deep relaxation and transformation.
