A sound bath is a lying-down relaxation practice: you rest on a padded mat while brass bowls and chimes are played around you, and most people simply feel heavier, warmer and very still.
People often arrive at their first sound bath expecting something strange. What they find is a warm room, a thick mat, a blanket and an eye pillow. The only job is to lie down.
The first ten minutes
I start with a few slow breaths together, then play the largest bowl once and let it fade completely. That long fade is where most people first notice their shoulders dropping.
- You can keep your eyes open or closed.
- Moving, shifting or leaving early is always fine.
- Drifting off is common and nothing to apologise for.

Why it feels so settling
Long, even tones give a busy mind something simple to follow. We offer sound baths purely for relaxation; they are not a treatment for any condition, and we are careful never to promise more than a calm hour.
The bowls do not do anything to you. They just make it easier to stop doing everything else.
Trying one for yourself
Our small group sessions are the gentlest way in. Wear soft clothes, skip the big meal beforehand and arrive ten minutes early to settle.
Questions readers ask
Is a sound bath loud?
Rarely. Most of the session is soft, and the louder moments are brief and warm rather than sharp.
Can I come if I am new to meditation?
Yes. There is nothing to learn beforehand and nothing to get right.
