Join us at The Vale to celebrate the joys of Springtime and sample some Carnival activities for all the family!

Gong Bath, 9am-10am
You are invited to a relaxation sound healing journey that offers a fantastic way to leave behind the stresses of modern life. Come to regain sense of inner peace and tranquillity, feeling relaxed, refreshed and restored.

The Gongs are played gently along with Himalayan Bowls, Frame Drum, Hand Pan, Koshi and percussion instruments. Created sound is aimed to lull you into an Altered State of Consciousness (similar to deep meditation) inducing a deep, restorative relaxation. Relaxing the body in this way, reduces tension and allows vital energy to flow unhindered, bringing balance and harmony to your physical body, mind and soul. Supporting your body’s natural healing processes as your brainwaves slow down.
