Sound baths in nature
Unwind with a restorative sound bath in a unique setting
Immerse yourself in the calming sounds of gongs, singing bowls and gentle percussion for a therapeutic sonic experience in one of London’s most iconic green spaces, Kew Gardens.
Therapeutic sound has been proven to offer a wide range of health benefits, helping to boost your immune system by making you feel more grounded, balanced, and connected.
No previous experience is needed for this expert-led session, making it the perfect opportunity to try a new way of reaching deep meditation and relaxation.
Before your session, why not take a tranquil walk through our Gardens to extend your feeling of vitality and wellbeing?
What happens during the sound bath?
Jez Smith FRSA, a historical musician and qualified sound therapist with over 35 years’ experience, will lead you through the sound bath.
You’ll start the session with breathwork before being “bathed” in soothing and resonant sounds that vibrate through the space. As a hearing-impaired musician, he has developed multi-sensory ways of listening which come through in the sound baths to produce a unique experience, one which allows deep meditation and relaxation.
