Welcome to a unique, immersive experience that promises to reharmonize your body, mind and soul: the Bain de Gongs.
What is a Gong Bath?
A gong bath is a deep relaxation session in which participants are bathed in the powerful, enveloping vibrations of gongs. These ancient instruments, used for millennia for meditation and relaxation, produce a complex range of sounds that resonate throughout the body, promoting a state of deep relaxation and well-being.
The Benefits of Gong Bathing
● Stress Reduction: The vibrations of the gongs help to release physical and mental tension, enabling deep relaxation.
● Energetic Balance: The sounds harmonize the chakras and meridians, restoring the body’s energetic balance.
● Improved Sleep: A gong bath session can improve sleep quality by promoting a state of calm and serenity.
● Stimulation of Creativity: Sound waves can stimulate imagination and creativity, opening up new perspectives.
● Strengthening the Immune System: The deep relaxation induced by gong bathing can strengthen the immune system by reducing levels of cortisol, the stress hormone.
How does a session work?
During a gong bath session, you are invited to lie comfortably on a mat or blanket, with your eyes closed. The practitioner plays the gongs intuitively, creating a symphony of sound that envelops you completely. Each session is unique and adapted to the energy of the moment.

32 variations of Sirsasana and Sarvangasana

Logical steps will lead you to explore these variations in a gradual approach.
In a book written by A.G. Mohan, he recalls that T. Krishanamachaya (85 years old at the time) demonstrated 32 variations of the headstand to him.
It’s important to note that all inverted postures are performed with a strong trunk, enabling the practitioner to lift the legs and move in different directions. It’s the flexibility of the muscles that keeps the posture in place. It is therefore essential to work on developing physical strength and muscle flexibility to derive maximum benefit from Sirsasana/headstand or Sarvangasana/candlestand.
Yoga cannot be practised without attention. With coordinated breathing, as in vinyasa krama, the practice of inverted postures aims to achieve and maintain good breath quality.
These inversions and their variations contribute to the flexibility and strength of the spine. It’s said that you’re only as old as the state of your spine. In addition, because of the relaxation of the lower limbs, Sarvangasana/candle posture is a good posture to help overcome insomnia. Both postures are very good for

The Inner Journey
Yin Yang and Yoga Nidra
WORKSHOP INSTRUCTED BY ABI FONJALLAZ
SUNDAY JUNE 22, 2025 | 15:00-18:00
Yang, Yin Yoga and Yoga Nidra; 3 distinct practices built on the same intention of connection to oneself. Come and experience the different states of consciousness of yoga through its physical, mental, emotional and spiritual benefits.
The first Yang part will be dynamic, strengthening the body and balance. The second part, Yin, is calm and deep, with asanas held for several minutes, allowing the mind to concentrate fully on sensations and breathing. The third part, Yoga Nidra, is an exploration of “yogic dreaming” or “lucid sleep”, opening the way to a more creative and intuitive part of ourselves.
You’ll emerge refreshed, serene and closer to your aspirations.
Price: CHF 60 until Saturday June 14, CHF 70 from June 15, 2025.
Participants: Experience of regular yoga practice. Places are limited.
