Gong Journey into Deep Space

Hop into the spacecraft, blast through the atmosphere, and explore a deep space soundscape with your Captain and Soundscape Navigator, Phoenyx! 

After a brief introduction and guided meditation, Phoenyx will offer an intense and fun ~60-minute sound immersion with her two powerful gongs and gentle Koshi chimes. Afterward, there will be an opportunity to journal and/or share reflections with the group.

Gongs create a unique, deeply-moving experience that can drop listeners into spontaneous meditative states (theta) where we have access to creative thinking and brilliant ideas. They also help to clear energetic blocks and re-attune to higher vibrations. Gongs can also bring up big emotions, move stuck energy, and allow for emotional release, which can sometimes feel activating and create feelings of anxiety and overwhelm. Participants are encouraged to come prepared to allow for these feelings to come up and to release. Earplugs will be provided for anyone who might be sensitive to the sound.

Phoenyx Bio:

Founder and Soundscape Navigator at “For the Love of Gong,” Phoenyx is a free-spirited creator, psychonaut, philosopher, beautifier, writer, speaker, consultant, and gong lover — passionately inspired by expanded states of consciousness, alchemy, healthy empowerment, harmonious dynamics, mind-hacking and practical magick, entheogenic exploration and harm-reduction, natural wellness, and community-building.

She has two magnificent gongs: a 32″ traditional bronze Chinese Chau gong; and a 24″ Paiste Brilliant Symphonic gong, made of silver, nickel, and bronze. She completed the Advanced Gong Sound Healing Certification Training through the International Gong Yoga Association in July 2022, under Gong Master Yogi Mehtab Benton. A perpetual student, Phoenyx is always exploring further education to learn how to share the gongs in more therapeutic ways.
