Gong Baths | Sound Baths | Wellbeing
Festivals | Events | 1-1 Healing | Education | Business. SOUND IS MY PASSION. GONGS BY JULIA came about through my own personal journey with ill health and lived trauma. I realised that through the use of sound I could be the "Captain of my own ship"; that I could understand the complexity of my emotions and focus on wellbeing and life satisfaction, avoiding negative emotions and symptom relief. It is now my mission to share this simple but life changing tool with others. Sound has no language, gender, race or religious belief; it needs only to be created to be of use and then loved. Through the use of gongs, drums and a variety of other instruments, a platform can be created whereby like minded people of all ages, abilities and beliefs can come together to create a supportive community. Within this safe and nurturing space a person can learn who they truly are, thier strengths and weaknesses, their fears and anxieties and why they make the choices they do and how all this can affect their health and wellbeing. Gaining this priceless and powerful understanding results in a release of anything negative and limiting leading to new beginnings where positive growth is embraced. Confidence grows, along with self-worth and self-belief. Over time a person starts to feel empowered and good about themselves, less fearful and more willing to face new challenges and all that life has to offer. GONGS BY JULIA is about transforming lives, it is a growing community of limitless possibilities where understanding, friendship, support, guidance and connection are guaranteed. I WORK IN MANY SETTINGS - SCHOOLS, CORPORATE EVENTS, FESTIVALS and ONE TO ONE THERAPIES. (Please also see my FB page "Vibrational Alchemy 101")

Wirksworth, a picturesque town in the Peak District was THE place to be on Sunday.
The Old School opened its doors to a whole new adventure with Gongs, and the morning was perfect.
Gongs by Julia brought their Community Gong Bath to this beautiful building, a grade 2 listed 1851 infant school, with the intention of creating something unique and engaging.
The acoustics were perfect.
The resonance moved through the history of the building with delicate ease.
And the guests rested, held within the Gongs.
There was alignment and it will be remembered.🙏
We look forward to seeing you all again in JUNE.☀️
Friendship Yoga and Wellbeing and Gongs by Julia came together for the first time this year at the weekend, to promote what they’re good at - CREATING COMMUNITY ❣️
The reasons for connection are simple yet invisible. We need to belong, to be a part of something greater than ourselves.
And yet we seem more disconnected more now than ever before. 😕
We grow and find purpose when we come together. That belonging reduces the stress and keeps the “grey matter”healthy. We find the joy and stay healthy.
PEOPLE. BELONG. TOGETHER.❤️
A great Gong Bath Session in Nottingham on Saturday, returning regulars with a sprinkling of “newbies”.🙏😃
A Huge Heart felt THANK YOU to all who chose to join us, we look forward to seeing all again in JUNE.☀️☀️☀️
It is essential now to quietly accept the way that things are.
This does not necessarily mean that you endorse or celebrate current circumstances, just that you do not resist them. Feel the feeling but don’t become the emotion.
Acceptance is the most fundamental principle in the philosophy of the Tao Te Ching, ( an ancient tradition of philosophy and religious belief).
It is not passive tolerance, but a courageous and active, spiritual practice that can lead to a more fulfilling and harmonious life. You don’t need to manage every outcome.
Allow the unfolding with graceful surrender and move from a state of powerlessness to empowerment.❣️
To resist events is similar to resisting the turning of the earth-- you only exhaust yourself in vain.❣️
Sit silently.
Sit with the stillness. Breathe.
Allow.
Witness the thoughts passing before you.
Just witness, not interfering not even judging. The moment you judge you lose the pure witness and the Fire Horse has you.
The moment you realise you’ve reacted. Become lost in the seemingly endless chaos, the Horse with its Fire and Mercury Retrograde energy, gallops you away to fear, frustration and possible despair.
You need to be patient.
It takes time to create a gap between the witness and the mind.
But once the gap is there, you are given the knowing that you are more than your mind, you become the witness, the watcher.
Now comes the control…
The Horse and the retrograde become but a reflective moment and “that” mind becomes calm, releasing its control.
The body now takes the lead with guidance from the Soul.❣️
An alchemy of all that is YOU comes into being, you become brave, fearless, unconditioned, sane and free.🙂
💦 Find Your Silence.
💦 Pause Your Mind.
💦 Listen To Your Wisdom.
💦 Trust.
💦 Allow. Flow. 💧

Over the following months ahead , let go of what doesn't resonant with what you feel you are becoming, and begin to embrace a deeper level of honesty and alignment.
Release your attachment to outdated identities and ways of being, and simply allow yourself to be without any need of defining yourself.
Align with the flow of life without being a passive spectator of it.
💦 BE LIKE WATER. .... The Tao Te Ching.
RESISTING CHANGE. 💧
Water is open to change. Depending on the temperature, it can be a liquid, solid or gas. Depending on the medium it's in, it can be a teapot, a cup or a flower vase. In fact, it's water's ability to adapt and change and remain flexible that made it so enduring through the ages, despite all the changes in the environment.
EFFORTLESS HARMONY. 💧
If you think about water flowing towards a rock, it will just flow around it. It doesn't get upset, it doesn't get angry, it doesn't get agitated. In fact, it doesn't feel much at all. When faced with an obstacle, somehow water finds a solution, without force, without conflict.
HUMILITY. 💧
If you think about water flowing in a river, it is always staying low. It helps all the plants grow and keeps all the animals alive. It doesn't actually draw any attention to itself, nor does it need any reward or recognition. It is humble.
But without water's humble
contribution, life as we know it may not exist.
BE LIKE WATER. 💦
💧 Find your silence.
💧 Pause your mind.
💧 Listen to your wisdom.
Hear YOUR truth.
LIVE THE LIFE YOUR SOUL INTENDED. ❤️
Our Gongs by Julia Community Gong Bath for APRIL, held at Baslow Village Hall is proving to be really popular, but there are a few tickets remaining if you feel like trying something truly unique to support your wellbeing this Spring 🪴❣️
