Sound baths & gong baths in London
A sound bath is an hour lying on the floor while someone plays gongs, singing bowls, chimes and voice around the room. There is nothing to do: the sound is long and overlapping, and most people drift between waking and sleep.
London's sound baths run in yoga studios, churches and railway arches, often in the early evening. Bring warm socks — you cool down quickly lying still — and expect to leave slightly dazed.

Common questions
- What is a sound bath?
- A group session where you lie down and listen to sustained acoustic sound — usually gongs and crystal or Tibetan bowls — for forty-five to sixty minutes. 'Bath' refers to being surrounded by sound, not to water; nothing is asked of you beyond lying still.
- What should I bring to a sound bath?
- Warm layers and socks, and a blanket if the listing doesn't say one is provided. Most venues supply mats, bolsters and eye masks. Arrive early enough to settle, as latecomers are often held at the door once the gongs start.
- Is a gong bath the same as a sound bath?
- A gong bath is a sound bath led mainly by gongs, which are louder and more physical than bowls — you feel them in your chest. Sessions billed as sound healing or sound journeys use a wider mix of instruments and often voice.
