What is a gong bath?

A gong bath (also known as gong meditation or gong sound healing) is a deeply relaxing form of sound therapy. Participants simply lie down comfortably on mats or blankets, often with eye pillows, while a facilitator plays large gongs using a mallet. The rich, resonant tones and powerful vibrations wash over the body like waves, creating an immersive "bath" of sound rather than water.

This ancient-inspired practice helps induce a meditative state, reduce stress, release tension, and promote emotional balance. The shifting frequencies and harmonics from the gongs are believed to entrain brainwaves, leading to profound relaxation, inner calm, and sometimes even physical sensations of healing. No prior experience is needed — it's accessible to everyone seeking a soothing, restorative experience.

The next Gong Bath for Lisa Hands Yoga is currently scheduled for 1st May 2026.
