Gong and sound baths can help with ADHD | London Gong Baths – Sound Bath and Gong Bath Meditation in London and Glastonbury

I just last week blogged about an experience I had during a corporate gong bath session whereby a participant, a young guy shared with me that he had ADHD Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. He had just fully experienced total relaxation and release from his very busy head space. A first for him! Rather than repeat myself now, you can read about that experience at Corporate Gong and Sound baths in London

I was so moved that I mentioned that I may look at ways to reach out to people with ADHD to come along and try a gong and sound bath.

I guess the universe has heard my call. On Saturday I had 3 lovely ladies come to my session. After the session I mentioned that gong can be beneficial to people with ADHD and 3 ladies shared with me that they too had ADHD.

I have received a lovely review from Jess, one of the ladies and one of the other ladies, Ayo, has been on TikTok talking about her experience.

I would love more people who find it really hard to relax, to let go, to focus, to sleep, to come and give this form of meditation a go.

We all know meditation is amazing for us and in meditation we learn techniques to help us to choose what we focus on (and it is often the breath, sometimes it may be a guided visualisation , a mantra ++) and in moving our focus to what we choose, it frees us from all the chatter and allows us to let go and relax deeply. We can then experience all the amazing benefits of meditation when we come away from our busy chattery heads however for some people that may feel like an impossible task and this is where the gong bath comes in to play. I am discovering that people with ADHD in particular can struggle to meditation. With the gong bath practice YOU DO NOT NEED TO DO ANYTHING, You do not need to know HOW, you can be a complete beginner to meditation and VOILA just like magic! the sounds can do all the hard work for you. Like a complete system reset. This is really extremely powerful!!

I aim to delve deeper in to working with sound healing for people with ADHD to see how I can help more. I know some people may be sound sensitive in which case it would need to be a more gentle type of session so maybe not my usual public sessions where participants like and expect the crescendos. The sounds of the gongs can get quite loud at times and most people go deeper in to relaxation as the volume goes up. For those of you who are sensitive to louder sounds you may find a singing bowl sound bath more suitable for you.

You can experience a gong and sound bath with Odette in London and St Leonards East Sussex.

I absolutely love Odette’s gong baths and grateful to have found her ‘coincidentally’ a while back now. It’s a magical experience every time I go, and I can honestly say that this is one for the Soul. Healing and wonderful.Thank you Odette.

I came across London Gong Meditation on Instagram last year and I’ve been attending Gong baths in Camden ever since. I absolutely LOVE the sessions and how I feel after them. It’s the most relaxing practice that I’ve found - a truly blissful 75 minutes that I’ve struggled to get anywhere else ☺️ I always feel at peace, in tune with myself and ready to face the weeks ahead after a gong bath and I always have a wonderful nights sleep.You’re made to feel welcome, at home, and like you’re surrounded by friends from the moment you arrive at the studio. Everyone is always so friendly and each time I’ve attended, I’ve met lovely people downstairs whilst waiting to be let into the studio. My first Gong bath, I convinced a friend to come with me as I didn’t feel confident enough to go alone - I had a fear that I might have to do something that I didn’t know how to do and would look a fool - How wrong I was! The beauty of this practice is that you don’t have to do anything except relax and enjoy it! After my first session I knew I’d be able to attend my next session alone - and I haven’t looked back since. Odette is amazing and plays all of the instruments beautifully - Anyone thinking of giving Gong bath meditation a go, absolutely should 🙏🏼

I bought the gong sleep meditation just before Christmas and have played it a few times over the holidays. I have found it really works as I have slept very well each time. It also feels deeply healing and the recording is a good length.

Really great experience - relaxing, meditative and healing. I also experienced an un-blocking of creativity afterwards and felt very inspired. Other positive effects have been improved sleep, reduced pain & good dreams!

It is a very enjoyable experience, relaxing and definitely healing! I have a back injury that requires seeing my Osteopath regularly, she has been unwell in the last couple of months and turns out my now regular Gong baths are helping immensely! Thank you Odette Lightland

Recently received a gong and sound bath by Odette. Being surrounded by these vibrations made my body feel kind of realigned afterwards. Very relaxing experience. I also enjoyed the variety of sounds throughout. Can only recommend the experience ☺️

This was my first gong bath experience and I really enjoyed it. Odette created an ambient space to lay and let the beautiful sound wash over you - so relaxing! I slept deeply afterwards and felt great the following day. Eye masks and mats were provided which really helped with getting into meditation during the session. I'll definitely be attending one of Odette's slightly longer events soon!
