SOUND HEALING
WHAT IS SOUND HEALING?
Sound healing, or sound therapy, is a powerful practice where we are offered the opportunity to heal, gain balance & achieve harmony through the sound & vibration of powerful healing instruments. The sense of relaxation that is often achieved by sound healing is as a result of activating the parasympathetic nervous system. In addition to our heart rate and brain waves slowing down, we may also expand our consciousness to a higher level. This can help us to release trapped emotions, trauma and stale energy, promoting healing & creating a sense of equanimity & balance. Ultimately, sound healing can assist us in connecting with our 'soul self' – the all-knowing, grounded, instinctive part of ourselves that so many of us may struggle to access in the busy, fast-paced world we live in.​​
WHAT IS OUR APPROACH?
Lau has trained with one of the world's leading Gong Practitioners, Sheila Whittaker, & is a qualified Sound Therapist registered with The College of Sound Healing. Our sound healing sessions focus mostly on the gongs specifically, all of which have their own unique frequency & healing abilities. Throughout our sessions, the gongs are also surrounded by a supporting cast of sacred instruments including the hand-pan, singing bowls, bells, chimes, the shruti box and drums.
In addition, Lau is also an Arts Psychotherapist (HCPC registered) & as a result, all our sessions provide a safe, inclusive healing space that is always trauma-informed, person-centred & therapeutic in nature.

Autumn Equinox Mini Retreat Day: Sound Medicine & Transformative Breathwork
(Hosted in collaboration with Georgina Rose from Reconnect Breathwork)
Dartmoor Reach Alpaca Farm, Bovey Tracey
10am-2pm
£66 per person
This half day retreat is a chance to reconnect with what feels important to you. We will spend the day cocooned by the glorious setting of Dartmoor Reach Alpaca and Glamping Farm. Yes, you read that right – Alpaca’s will be our hosts for the day! This half day retreat will be set within the stunning yoga barn on site & will be intuitively led, as Lau and Georgie work closely together to ensure the energy throughout our time together matches people’s needs as much as possible. Opening and grounding down with a hot cup of cacao we will set our intentions for the day, which will then be followed by a heart opening session with Georgie. During this time, Georgie will guide us in connecting with our authentic selves through Somatic movement and a transformational breathwork journey. There will then be a deep restorative sound healing session led by Lau, who will primarily use gongs supported by a vibrant cast of other grounding instruments to nourish and calm the soul. The aim of our time together is to connect, nourish and take time out of our busy lives as we begin to journey in to Autumn. We will close the space together by sharing with one another our experiences and by connecting with the beautiful natural environment around us.
Dartmoor Reach Alpaca & Glamping Farm is located on the edge of Dartmoor near to Bovey Tracey and is easily accessible from Exeter and the surrounding areas.

"Leaning into the energies of early Winter, this day will lovingly walk you into the energy of reclamation. As we meet the darkness in the year's cycle, you will bring forwards and reclaim the parts of you that have been pushed into the shadows. In the place where darkness and light meet is where we will gather.
This will be the most potent of the REWILD series, as we conclude the 2024 spirals.
Move, Breathe, Connect with yourself and other beautiful souls
