What is a Group Sound Bath

In a Group Sound Bath settings, group usually consists of a minimum of 5 people.  The group may consist of office colleagues, friends, relatives or family members. This is a collective healing for all members of the group at the same time. Group Sound Bath can be arranged weekly/ on festivals or holidays/ special occasions like birthdays, kitty party etc,.

​

Group sound session can also be group specific with specific healing requirements, collective meditation.  It is effective and it is also fun to share healing experiences within the group. It is possible to have a family session in the evening after dinner and relax, and it is cheaper compared to individual sound session.  However, Individual sessions are focused on one person and is more specific in approach and results.

                                        How can sound help in a group session?

The sound frequencies from singing bowls help translate our fluctuating brain waves into Theta rhythm and synchronize providing a stable frequency. Using harmony and vibration, we can entrain our brain waves, and then it becomes possible to reduce our normal beta (awake) state to alpha (relaxed consciousness) and even reach theta (meditative state) and delta (deep sleep; when internal healing takes place). The same concept is used in meditation through the regulation of the breath, but in the case of sound, it is the frequency that is the factor that influences the change of breathing rhythm and brain wave frequencies.  This kind of sound meditative experience is very effective in case of family members or colleagues with misunderstandings, and other negative emotions or negative thoughts. 

​

How should I prepare for group sound bath session?

I recommend to attend group sound sessions without any metals/ plastics/ keys/ magnetic cards/ monetary coins on your body. The preferred dress is breathable white colored or any light colored cotton dress without any tight fittings. Participants are supposed to bring their own yoga mats or blankets/ bed-sheets to lay down on floor depending on the day's temperature and individual comfort levels. 

Please avoid alcohol, smoking and non-vegetarian food on the day of group sound bath session as Tamasic intakes or addictions poisons your energy body.

Have light, warm, freshly cooked vegetarian food and drink plenty of warm water.
