Candlelight Meditation and Sound Journey Lincoln (Brant Broughton)

The intention of this experience is to offer a safe space for you to enjoy some well deserved “me time”. A chance to slow down and unwind at the weekend.

What to expect

A sound bath is a deeply relaxing, meditative experience where you are immersed in therapeutic sound vibrations using instruments designed to calm the nervous system by letting your body absorb the harmonious frequencies. Participants simply lay on a yoga or padded mat, or sit in a comfortable chair listening as the sounds guide you into a state of deep rest and renewal.

When you arrive, there will be the chance to set an intention for the journey and the week ahead. I will provide intentions cards if you wish to do this.

I’ll also be providing complimentary but optional heated eye masks to use during the sound journey.

Once you are laying or sitting comfotably, we will begin with a brief introduction and then I will guide you through a 15 minute grounding meditation to relax the body and mind.

Next, you’ll be immersed in soothing vibrations from crystal bowls, koshi chimes, wind gong, swing chime, handpan drum, vocal toning and ocean drum. We will then finish with a short meditation and/or poem.

There is nothing you need to do-simply arrive, rest and receive.

What to wear

Loose comfortable clothing is reccommended. Wearing layers can be helpful so you can adjust your temperature and help you relax.

What to bring

• An open heart and mind
• A yoga mat or something soft that you will be comfortable to lie down on for the 75 mins. If you prefer to sit, you are welcome to bring a comfortable chair.
• A cushion or pillow
• Blankets or duvet to keep warm
• A water bottle to keep hydrated
• Anything else that would help make you as feel as comfortable as possible (an eye mask can be a good idea, some people also like to use a knee cushion)

Important

Please arrive at 18:50 to allow time to settle in and get comfortable before we begin. The doors will be closed at 19:00 for a prompt start. Due to the nature of the event, late arrivals will not be admitted. Unfortunately I am not able to offer refunds for late arrivals or non-attendees.

Sound baths are generally safe and are suitable for most. They promote deep relaxation which calms the nervous system, lowering cortisol and can induce states similar to deep sleep. It helps to quiet the mind and reduce feelings of stress and anxiety leading to inner peace and a sense of rejuvenation. They may not be suitable for you if you’re pregnant or have sound sensitivities, tinnitus, sound induced epilepsy, or other medical conditions, certain sounds could cause discomfort or trigger symptoms. While they’re usually harmless, please exercise your own judgement or consult your doctor if you have any concerns.
