Group Sound Healing Therapy: Collective Harmony and Sonic Well-being

It is an immersive sound experience designed to promote relaxation, meditation, and healing. During a sound bath, participants lie comfortably while a facilitator (such as a Sound Healing guide) creates a sound "bath" using a variety of instruments such as Tibetan singing bowls, crystal bowls, gongs, bells, and other percussion instruments. These instruments produce tones and vibrations that can influence the mind and body, leading to a deep state of relaxation and meditation.
