They have been integral to meditation, ceremonies, and rituals for thousands of years. Today, gongs feature in yoga and meditation classes, sound therapy sessions, group gong baths, and even in palliative and cancer treatment centres to promote health and wellbeing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe secret of the gong lies in its tremendous potential for healing and rejuvenation. Covering the full spectrum of sound, it vibrates at the cellular level—through bones, organs, and tissues. Many people report an influx of energy as its resonance reaches their ears, body, and soul. Acting like a divine engine, the gong influences the body’s meridians, often leaving one with a profound sense of calm, relaxation, and inner peace—a feeling of being healed by the spirit of nature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSound from a gong travels from the outer ear throughout the body via the vagus nerve. This process can impact brain waves, respiratory and heart rates, and help release tension and blocked energies. In this way, the gong’s soundwaves work to rebalance the physical, emotional, and spiritual bodies. The soothing effect of being bathed in an ocean of sound creates deep relaxation and may help reduce stress, a key factor in healthy living.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGong types\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGongs are flat bronze discs that produce little fundamental pitch yet offer a rich tapestry of overtones and a long sustained resonance. Modern gongs are mostly made of electrolytic copper and tin. Traditionally, they are played with a large, soft mallet that produces a distinctive, roaring crash—befitting their namesake. These instruments are carefully lathed on both sides and come in small, medium, and large sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOur Chao Gongs and Wind Gongs, for example, are typically available in a medium size—around 60 centimetres in diameter—which strikes a balance between portability and a powerful, expansive sound. These gongs are popular not only in sound healing sessions but also among rock drummers, especially when played with a nylon-tipped drumstick to evoke a sound reminiscent of old-fashioned coil chimes. All suspended gongs are mounted by a chord threaded through holes near the rim, and for safe transport during sound healing sessions, a gong bag is advisable. We also offer a few gong stands. The smaller table gongs, measuring roughly 16–40 centimetres, produce a more bell-like tone due to their thickness and reduced diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUsing the gong in your practice\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDaily rituals\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBegin and end your day with a gong ritual.

They function as places of energy exchange. In fact, we have hundreds of chakra points spread throughout our subtle energy system. However, the most well-known are the seven main chakras, which are connected in the central energy channel of our body, which runs along our spine. When the chakras function properly, these centres are gateways for vital life energy that enters our body through channels (nadis) and meridians through our subtle body. At the same time, they are also vanishing points for low-frequency energy to flow back to the subtle bodies that are being transformed. Each of the seven major chakras represents a level of consciousness or developmental stage of life, viewed from the perspective of our physical existence. Chakras may function less when they are in a negative state for a long time due to negative habits and accumulated emotions. This makes it difficult for the personality to fully integrate the level of consciousness that each chakra represents. When the chakras are open and in balance, they form an integrated system in which each chakra is dependent on the others for optimal function.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mani Bhadra BV - Phoenix Import","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53366648406359,"sku":"17340","price":940.01,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0872\/8923\/3751\/files\/17340.jpg?v=1776832837"},{"product_id":"nepalese-gong-chenrezig-gravure-60cm-95kg","title":"Nepalese gong Chenrezig engraved","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOrnately carved Nepalese gong with deep, upturned rim.
