At Jubilee Hall, Batcombe, BA4 6HE
Gong and Singing bowl Sound baths envelope you in the warmth of their full spectrum frequencies which have been embodied within their

enable the mind to free itself of thoughts, the body free itself of tensions, the recipients can go on a journey as the waves of sound
support transformation and stuck energy and can bring us to potential balance and alignment.
You will have an opportunity to prepare to relax the body with a Yoga Nidra and a little bit of Qigong movement beforehand.
