So my friend Les, the godess of health and wellness, is always one step ahead of everyone I know in regards to anything to do with wellness, self-care and health. She invited me one night to a sound bath experience. At first I was like what is a sound bath?! But knowing Les, I knew I'd love it so I said yes without having any idea what I was about to experience.
So one night we met up in this studio filled with a bunch of singing bowls of different sizes, a huge gong, chimes and many other instruments I can't name you and there were these folding sitting chairs with a bunch of blankets. So we each took a seat, covered ourselves with the blankets, the lights were dimmed and we were encouraged to say a little something about ourselves, mention why we were there and what we expected from our experience. After everyone mentioned a little something about themselves, we were asked to lie down comfortably and then the magic begun.
I felt like there were 7 people playing different instruments, when it was only the wonderful Sarah and her singing bowls, chimes, gong, nature sounds etc. transporting you to what felt like a different dimension. It was basically meditation with sounds, vibrations, music and chants. I felt pure peace, serenity, wellbeing, relaxation and stress free.
It was one of the coolests things I've ever experienced!
