Sound Bath Circle – Gong-Led Yogic Rest

Inspired by yogic rest and the inward turning of pratyahara, this experience invites you into a deeply relaxed, aware state where the body softens and attention gently turns inward.

We begin with a guided somatic meditation, including intention setting (sankalpa) and a gentle rotation of consciousness. This prepares the body and mind to settle, creating the conditions for true rest without losing awareness.

The second half unfolds into a boundless gong immersion, where layered resonance supports the body in releasing effort while the mind remains quietly present.

This practice offers a space to:

– rest deeply while staying aware

– disengage from habitual patterns of identification

– experience awareness without content

It is the space between wakefulness and sleep, where doing fades, yet awareness remains.

We close in stillness, allowing the experience to integrate naturally.
