The Weekend Retreat Programme
Friday Evening
The Magic of the Gong Experience
Aidan McInytre
This evening Gong master Aidan McIntyre introduces us to The Gong Experience.
He will teach us about the history of the Gong and there will be the opportunity for hands on experience of playing this beautiful instrument. Aidan’s introduction will be followed by an exquisite Gong Bath.
If you’ve yet to experience the magic of a Gong Bath; then you are in for a very special treat!
Bathing us in waves of beautiful and timeless vibrations; the Gong Bath has been likened to a mini-vacation, in which we become both the bubble and the sea as we experience a sense of disappearing and reappearing, leading us to new beginnings and a fresh place of self-healing and self revelation.
The powerful vibrations of the gong transport us to another level of being; a place where healing naturally occurs and the stresses of every day life are gently washed away.
Enjoy feeling immersed in an unlimited, infinite sound space, bathed by fluid, ever-changing melodies and harmonies blended with grace and lightness. Allow the sounds and vibrations to deepen your feelings of connection to Source.
Begin this special weekend in a perfect state of joy and bliss with a sense of increased vitality, calmness, balanced emotions and feelings of self-empowerment

Connecting with the Elements
A Sacred Journey of Cosmic Sound

We can hear the ocean’s song in the sea shell and hear echoes from the green wood in the flute; just two of the instruments transporting us to wonderful places in this special concert tonight as we travel the ancient earth over the hot empty deserts of Arizona, or walk through the New Zealand Rain forests to hear the dawn chorus.
Tim, Katie and Aidan will create a powerful elementary journey, combining their voices and the sacred instruments which have traveled many miles with them over the years.
The healing sounds will activate and balance each element, heightening our awareness of their dance and movement – within – and without.
