Well-being Events

To take part in any Sound Healing event, you must fill in a ‘participation form’ below.

Attending a Sound bath affects the many layers of our being. The vibrations of sound penetrate deep into our tissues. Sound healing is highly effective in triggering our relaxation response and helps improve sleep, reduce anxiety and stress.

Sound baths are NOT suitable for those who have sound induced epilepsy, severe mental illness, recent trauma or in their 1st trimester. Please contact me to discuss.

We may work with the breath, practicing simple breathing exercises to cleanse the mind. Other times we will practice humming and toning to open our energy wheels & clear our head.

After a short pause, we will then lie down and get ready to receive the healing sounds from Tibetan singing bowls,crystal singing bowls, drumming, wind-gongs, kochi chimes & more. Facilitated by Best Essential Sounds.

Replenish your self with a day devoted to YOU. Meet some lovely, like-minded people and make some new friends.

We start the day with a 2 hr dynamic yoga class held in a village hall or Cowdray Hall. We focus on a group of related postures and improve our knowledge of them.

Lunch is either somewhere local or I supply a light vegetarian meal.

We then go on a little walk through some beautiful woods and countryside.

On return, we lie down and enjoy just under an hour of healing sounds created by Tibetan bowls, drums, gongs & chimes.
