SOUND HEALING

Transpersonal Therapies offers monthly sound baths, using crystal bowls and other percussion. Each sound bath includes an opening meditation to help you relax and finishes with a period of silence, refreshments and an opportunity to share your experience with others if you wish.

Please see below for further information and the groups/events page to book onto any of these experiences.

Edward, trained by and registered with the College of Sound Healing, also takes a small number of clients for individual sound healing treatments.

About Sound Healing:

What happens during a sound bath?

Participants are literally bathed in waves of sound, helping many people desist from ruminative thinking. A sound bath can help shift brainwaves from the Beta mode of everyday wakefulness to one of the following states:
  • Alpha, where the brain is relaxed and receptive 
  • Theta, associated with deep meditation, dreaming, visions and possible moments of insight. 
  • Delta , as experienced during deep sleep and bringing the benefits of profound rest.

Sound bath practicalities

  • The sound bath and meditation are both experienced laying on the floor so please bring something comfortable (e.g. yoga mat, quilt, pillow) to rest upon and keep you warm.
  • Mobile phones/tablets need to be switched off.
  • Please refrain from using any substances, including alcohol, whilst attending a sound bath and drink plenty of water afterwards.
  • Sorry, no late admission once a sound bath has started. 

Possible benefits

The combination of meditation and sound healing can have a range of effects, including:
  • deep relaxation
  • clarity of mind
  • inner contemplation
  • symptom relief, and 
  • emotional healing

Contraindications

For most people there are no contraindications that would prevent you from benefiting from a sound bath . However, if you do suffer from tinnitus or any form of sound related epilepsy, migraines, bipolar, ASD, are pregnant, or have been undergoing treatment / receiving medication for any form of psychological disorder within the last 6 months, then please contact us before booking an experience.
