The powerful Gong serves as a facilitator to break up emotional, physiological and spiritual blockages. The “Sun Gong” specifically tuned to the vibrational frequency of the Sun and is associated with the OM tone. It has been revered by Hindus since ancient times that the sun is a manifestation of the OM which gives life and vibrates its healing and life giving frequency. Paired with the “Atlantis Gong” they both carry deep full bodied sounds that can conjure up emotional depth, creating sensations with deep body effects followed by sweet harmonic overtones that echo through the nervous system like waves. This ringing feels like a gentle vibration washing through your body. The Atlantis Gong vibrates healing frequency that stimulates: emotional balance, clear energetic blockages and heightens intuitive connection. Be present in this tantalizing sound bath, wash away negative blockages, transform through the intensity and be reborn through the journey.
