Wellness Center

The 90- minute event includes a discussion on the healing attributes of the Gong, a 62-minute Gong Meditation, followed by sweets & community. Join us on a transformative journey of healing and deep relaxation, as we bathe every cell of the body in therapeutic sound and vibration. The Gong acoustically elevates us, creating a deep, spontaneous meditative state that restores harmony and vitality to the mind, body and soul. The pure, penetrating sound waves of the Gong will leave you feeling tuned, refreshed and connected with your intuitive personal power.
