Newcastle Crystal Reiki Gong Bath at Gosforth Newcastle
What To Expect
Come and join Micheal at the Quaker Meeting house, where you can expect a warm welcome, and an abundance of soothing, calming healing energies. This is a Gong bath with a difference. As a Gong and Reiki Master Micheal provides a triune of three vibrational energies, Crystal, Reiki and Sound, all blended together with Spiritual Intent, as well as the combined connected energy from the larger group of people, guides and spirits attending, to provide you with a Psycho-acoustic experience like no other.
If you have not experienced a Gong Bath before don’t worry there is no clothes to remove, or ‘getting wet’. The term ‘bath’ relates to you being ‘bathed’ in sound waves, and is a very unique experience where it can feel different each time, and also different for everyone present.
The Venue
Micheal has been hosting Gong baths at the Quaker House for over three years. This wonderful building which is situated right in the heart of Gosforth offers us a calm, peaceful and spiritual space. Just a short walk from the high street you will find us in the large airy upstairs room. Although it is heated and carpeted throughout, warm loose fitting clothes are still recommended, especially in winter months. Public transport via the metro and buses is within easy walking distance, and there is on street car parking available, and the House has its own car park at the rear of the building for several vehicles, as well as several other car parks nearby. There is a lift and toilets on each floor, and there is a staff member to guide you in. Try to avoid large meals and alcohol prior to your Gong Bath. If you have your own please feel free to bring your Yoga mat, or sleeping bag, a cushion for your head, a blanket to keep you warm and toasty and eye shades are all recommended. Micheal has several Yoga mats, blankets and cushions available on a first come basis, and if you prefer to sit the venue has several comfortable high backed chairs which you can use. Bottled water is available for all guests.
Many guests bring their own Yoga mat, sleeping bag and / or an inflatable mattress, together with a head cushion and blanket. Micheal will have several of each available to use if you don't have your own. The Quaker house also has some high backed chairs if you prefer to sit.

Chase Farm Venue.
My Gong Studio at Chase Farm near Bebside can accommodate up to 4 guests for the Sunday Morning Gong bath and for all other events at my studio it is 3 guests. Located on Chase Farm, close to the large Asda Superstore, and the new Bebside Railway Station. Our full postal address will be on your ticket, and there is car parking available on the drive and in front of our house. Guests can choose the cosy Chaise Longue Sofa, or a traditional Yoga Mat (three available). The Studio is warm and energised with constant daily Reiki and Sound energy filling every space of the room. Micheal uses coloured lighting to enhance each event's Intention, and each event has different Crystals to hold and place around your body to match the outcome required. Filtered Reikied water is available and on some events herbal teas are available afterwards. Should you wish to do so Guests can share their experiences and stories, ask questions as well as try their hand with my Gongs, and Drums.
Unlike larger venues, where the instruments may seem distant or unreachable, my dedicated Studio brings these up close and personal, and creates an environment where my guests can truly witness the passion and dedication poured into every tone and overtone produced from my amazing Gongs and Drums. And being up close to the instruments, offers a more cozy, intimate atmosphere which helps to create a sense of oneness, with other guests, the Earth, as well as the Universe itself.
Above. Micheal's Studio set up for 4 guests. Chaise Longue Sofa, 2 Yoga Mats & Reclined Chair
Micheal has three Gong Baths available. One in Newcastle and two at Chase Farm.
All events include Breathwork and inner Chi Kung meditations. While all three Gong Baths are similar the number and types of Gong bring different pallets of sound textures creating different soundscapes.
As well as Micheal’s Gong Baths, he also has five different Sound Baths available at Chase Farm. Each uses a number of different instruments. Gongs are used with some, but not all the events. Some of the events draw on Micheal’s skills with Native American instruments such as Shamanic Rattles, Drums, and Flutes. Micheal also incorporates his Ocean or Surf Drum, African Drum, Himalayan Singing Bowls, several Koshi Chimes, Tibetan Bells and Didgeridoo. Most of these Sound Baths feature a Guided meditation, and some include Chanting, Affirmations.

Where The Beat Goes Gong
Sound therapy is a very special and unique experience, where attendees traditionally lay down on a yoga mat with their heads facing the Gong, or in a warm cosy sleeping bag. For those who prefer to sit upright rather than being horizontal Micheal's relaxing reclined chair is a nice alternative. The sound and vibrations will flow through and saturate your body energetically, emotionally, mentally and physically. Sound therapy is a very powerful tool, allowing us to unplug ourselves from the hectic grid, and activate, and modify our states of consciousness in a positive way, to readjust the bodies natural rhythms, release tension and energy blockages, and bring inner calm and stillness, where deep healing can then occur.

And once you have been Gonged the benefits dont stop there. Micheal will send everyone a Free Distant Reiki session for 7 evenings between 8 and 10 pm for a week starting from the following day, to help maintain your higher Vibrations.
Micheal blends Crystal, Reiki and Sound Energy together on all of his events using Spiritual Intent.
How Does Reiki and Distance Reiki Work?
Answering this question requires us to embrace aspects of Quantum Physics, and Eastern Medicine.
For hundreds of years Qigong Masters and more recently Reiki Masters have known and taught their students that everything in the universe,including us, is connected. Quantum Physics caught up years ago, through with the discovery of Quantum Entanglement, which suggests that everything in the universe is indeed connected. It is this connection with everything that makes energy healing including Reiki and Distant Reiki possible. This enables the spiritual energy of the universe to be accessed by the practitioner's intention which directs the healing energy to the recipient. This intention is a conscious choice made by the practitioner to direct their energy towards the recipient, or recipient's with the intention of healing them, regardless of the physical distance between them.

What should I Expect During a Session?
The benefits of sound healing are well documented and have been known for many years. Having a Gong Bath can feel different for everyone, and also different every time you have one. My advice is to come with an open mind and heart, and expect the unexpected. Gong Baths are synonymous with journeys. My Gongs will provide the medium for your journey. A journey where your body is re-aligned, re-booted, rebalanced, and cleansed as the vibrations massage every one of your bodies 37 trillion cells, and where the healing qualities are fully absorbed, and depending on the pitch of the Gong some more than others. As the journey continues each of us will experience the transformational abilities of the Gong and Reiki being received and assimilated into our energy system. All the good things coming your way are of a benevolent nature, full of love, healing and positive intentions. The journey Time itself can become strangely distorted, for some time will feel longer while for others it may feel shorter. Eventually the session does come to an end, and we are returned to an intrinsic state of homeostasis, or optimal state of functioning together with the unique feelings you will have.
The Benefits Of Gong and Sound Baths
In the protection and safety of the Gong Space, harmful negative energies seccumb to the more abundant and powerful positive energies being integrated into every single cell of our body. However more sensitive people may recall, and even feel the memory of the issue surrounding the negative energy before it enters into a state of collapse. This applies to other therapies,but more so with combined Sound and Reiki healing. Where this happens it can cause brief moments of anxiety, grief or sadness for some people, before those harmful negative energies fall away and collapse. Micheal will advise you at the start of the session that this can happen, and if it does to restart your deep belly breathing and inner smile which will act to ground you as well as minimising any anxieties.
Micheal incorporates periods of silence known as "Sandhya" between the sounds, in order to help your mind gradually process and release any negative experiences,and feelings. These negative aspects should all be viewed in a positive light as it indicates that the combined energies are working to heal and restore your body and mind. Please dont worry if you dont experience any negative energies, but rest assured that they are being replaced with loving positive healing energy.
During and afterwards many people will experience an abundance of positive Sound and Reiki energies being generated inside the Gong Space, producing feelings of calm, peace, bliss, contentment, happiness, joy, compassion, profound levels of love as well as various levels of pain relief throughout as our body begins resonating at a higher frequency. This is coupled to our brainwaves slowing down and producing layers of altered states of consciousness from the combined exposure to the Gongs, Koshi chimes, Ocean drum, Crystals, Reiki, and even the energy from the universe itself..png?timestamp=1724278322175)
More Benefits
Gong Baths are an ancient type of sound therapy where you'll be bathed in sound waves, which release high vibrations into every part of the body. This works to rebalance our organs, glands, while boosting our immune system. Energy blockages and stress are dissolved and as the brain slows down taking us into Altered states of consciousness, the brain releases several “feel-good hormones.” These happy hormones evoke euphoria & excitement in our minds.These include dopamine, serotonin, endorphins, and oxytocin. Dopamine makes us feel pleasure, the kind we feel listening to music, etc. Meanwhile, serotonin is a natural mood booster that helps us to fight depression. Endorphins act as natural pain relievers, while oxytocin is the love hormone that enhances social bonding and induces feelings of protection, especially between mother and child.
More AboutThe Gongs
The Gongs are played intuitively with a variety of mallets, and styles of play to avoid overly producing monotonous rhythms. The sounds of the gongs can be both magical and haunting, and help connect us to the universe as well as offering a psycho-acoustic gateway to heightened, and altered states of consciousness.
These haunting magical sounds from the gong can quickly entrain our brainwaves to slow down from the normal waking "Beta state" into the lower "Alpha" and "Theta" states and for many the journey will take them even deeper into the "Delta". state. These altered states of consciousness are well researched and shown to trigger the release of several happy hormones and chemicals by the brain to reduce tension and stress, improve blood pressure, elevate our moods, calming our minds, whilst promoting healing and wellbeing. Coupled with our increased vibrational rate help connect us to our higher selves and even the universe.
The sound frequencies surpass our intellectual part of the brain, then travel to the core of our cellular system, where the healing qualities can be fully absorbed and assimilated. With Crystal, Reiki,and Sound plus Internal Chi Kung energy added this greatly increases the vibrational rate of the energy further, to turbocharge and bring a multitude of additional benefits.
Electrons become highly charged electromagnetically, forming a huge plasma field to be created off and around the Gong
The late theoretical physicist "David Bohm" discovered that when a Gong is played, the metal becomes “excited”, and the electrons become highly charged electromagnetically, forming a huge plasma field to be created off the Gong and both the player and listener becomes part of that field. When the vibrational activity of the Gong ends, the electrons ‘go back’ to their original atoms, and once the Gong comes to rest the energy field collapses. When the Gong is revved up again the Plasma field expands and intensifies. Thus from a scientific point the participants of the event are being electromagnetically charged in a positive, benevolent and holistic fashion. Many walk away with a natural buzz that in some case has lasted for a week. Metal is the only material known where the electrons leave their atoms and join other atoms.
Gong and Sound Baths can take us on a Journey into the Universe, where we can feel, see or sense our own higher self, our Guides and even for some the Creator of all things. These sometimes brief experiences can be different for everybody and every time. Most of the images you will find on my site and Eventbrite are what I have seen myself during my meditations and what attendees have described to me after their own Gong or Sound Bath (with their permission)
