WEEKLY SUNDAY GONG BATHS ARE BACK!
7pm-8pm
Percussion instruments, shruti and crystal bowls are at the start followed by 45 mins of gongs and ending with further instruments and guitar.
As we enter autumn and the days become shorter, a gong bath is a special time to end the weekend and prepare for the week ahead. Lying down in a warm room, lit only by candles with an hour just for yourself can help the body to enter a state of relaxation and stillness and lead to a sense of calmness and peace.
It is important to find time to just lie down, close your eyes and listen whilst doing nothing! A gong bath can help stress levels by removing oneself from the outside world and being present only to oneself and in so doing, it can often reduce the heart rate and slow breathing down and encourage a sense of surrender as the body sinks deeper into relaxation.
We are constantly assailed by outside stimuli - social media, phone calls, demand on our time, things to do etc. During a gong bath you have only the vibrations of the gongs - it maybe the only time in the week that you really have time for YOU.

WISHING YOU ALL
A HAPPY, HEALTHY AND PEACEFUL
CHRISTMAS

Thank you for all the support you have given the Studio over this year. We had a wonderful All-Night Gong Puja on 20th/21st and for some of you it was your eighth and ninth! It marked the turning of the year and the last few events at the Studio. We had breakfast for 20 on the morning of 21st and lots of communication and sharing.

The aim of Studio Britford is to build community and this is critical to our overall wellbeing. The decline of our connectedness is coming at the same time mental health issues are on the rise. We need to meet and talk, make new friends do new things - to have shared experiences.

We are social animals and our instinct is to find strength in numbers. When we meet in groups, we make connections and our health and happiness are inextricably linked to this.

I look forward to seeing many of you next year at gong baths, yoga and breathwork plus the other events that we run throughout the year.

May your hearts and hearths be warm and full of both comfort and joy

RESTORATIVE YOGA AND GONG BATH
SUNDAY, 27th October & SUNDAY, 24th November
6.30pm -8.15pm
This will be in candlelight and is an opportunity to sink into yourself and surrender into stillness. The clocks go back tonight so it will be dark at 6.30pm.
Through restorative yoga, you allow your body to reach a place of relaxation that brings together recuperation and replenishment. This creates the perfect environment for healing to take place. Our daily lives are often stressful and we can move out of balance. Restorative yoga helps slow us down and allows the body to rest and recharge.

Sunday Gong Bath
7pm-8pm
https://www.studiobritford.com/booking

We have polished the gongs! Over the months they get a little dull with finger prints and flumies (these are friction mallets that can be dragged over the gong. They have a rubber or silicone head). So now they are polished they will reflect the candlelight as the evenings draw in.

“Everything in Life is Vibration” – Albert Einstein
Everything in the Universe is constantly moving and vibrating at one speed or another. Nothing is ever completely at rest. Everything you can observe all around you is vibrating at one frequency or another, including you. However, your frequency is quite different from other people and things in the universe and because of this it seems like you are separated from everything; people, animals, plants, trees, etc. But, in reality, you are not separated; instead you are living in an ocean of energy, as we all are.

After a gong bath you may feel a sense of profound peace and balance. I like to say that you will have a very good night's sleep as most people report this but I cannot promise! We are experience things according to how we feel at a given time but the more relaxed we can be, the more likely it is that we can carry this feeling into the evening.
