Gong Meditation

Gong meditations are considered one of the most healing and restorative meditations possible.

Gong meditations are considered one of the most healing and restorative meditations possible, particularly because of the deep state of relaxation that is attained in response to the sound vibration. It is awesome for all ages and is a great intro into yoga- my seven-year-old Gavin has attended every session and can't wait until the following month.

Sense of Samadhi Yoga Studio offers Gong Meditation every 3rd Friday of the month including this Friday, July 20 at 7:30 p.m. 

It has a specific way of affecting the body, mind and soul on all levels. Let the vibrations, intonations, and overtones wash through your body, bringing balance on the cellular level. Ancient texts describe gongs as providing the sound of the vibrant energy core of the universe that was responsible for the creation of all things living. You can either sit in a chair or lie face up in a restorative pose.  Everyone's experience is different and changes with every meditation. Hope to see you there- Namaste
