Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Sound baths: How they can benefit your health
Caption: If you are looking for a new way to relax and heal yourself, then a sound bath could be just what you are looking for. A sound bath is a full-body listening and meditative experience where you are "bathed" in sound waves. Simon Gudgeon, qualified sound healing practitioner, sculptor, and owner at Sculpture by the Lakes, has shared his expertise on the therapeutic experience. What is sound healing and how do sound baths work? Sound baths have been used as a form of therapy for many years as they can help calm your mind and body. "Sound healing is a therapeutic experience which has been used for thousands of years to evoke feelings of calm and revival," Simon explains. "Sound baths are dedicated sessions which 'bathe' attendees in ambient sounds made through a variety of instruments including Himalayan bowls, gongs, crystal bowls, Koshi chimes, shamanic drums.". The expert adds that the instruments have a "unique ability to relax and calm the nervous system" and help the mind to rest. What are the benefits of sound healing? Sound baths can help you feel calm and restored by releasing feel-good chemicals in your body. "Sound healing is a natural means of helping your body release feel-good chemicals like endorphins, serotonin, and dopamine," the practitioner states. "My Sound Bath attendees have said the experience has helped reduce stress, enhanced their energy levels, uplifted their mood, and given their minds more focus.". Why is sound healing so popular? Sound baths are a good option for people who struggle to meditate. "Meditation can be difficult for many people, as they find it hard to switch off. Sound healing offers a prominent focus point, as your body and mind really tune into the different noises created by each instrument," he says.
