About Sound Healing

The Gong and Kundalini Yoga

Kundalini Yoga has long been known to help individuals reach a calmer and more relaxed state of mind, alleviate pain and more.

But the lesser-known Gong Therapy has been used with success in treating schizophrenia, autism and physical pain such as neck pain, headaches and cramping in the chest and upper respiratory systems.

The Gong magnifies and focuses the power of the yoga practice.

The combination of Kundalini Yoga, Pranayama (breath-work), and Yoga Nidra (deep relaxation) creates a receptive mind-body condition to allow the gong to facilitate the movement of healing energy (prana) throughout the body.

The Gong helps the listener detach from the pressure and content of the mind through an induced meditative state. The vibrations induced by the Gong stay with you for days!

The Gong works on all levels to heal and transform.

From the purely physical, to the emotional and spiritual, the sound of the gong can promote a positive change in the listener. Much like a massage, the vibrations produce effects on corresponding organs and other areas of the body.

The Sound of the Gong creates deep relaxation, releasing us from the torrents of thoughts our mind releases, and it stimulates the glandular system to a higher form of functioning.

The Gong is very simple, an inter-vibratory system that is the sound of creativity itself. The Gong impacts the body and its meridians, releasing energetic and emotional blocks.

The Gong’s many benefits include:

• Reducing stress and tension
• Stimulating circulation
• Re-adjusting the nervous system
• Creating a state of deep, relaxed meditation
