SELF CARE WITH A SOUND BATH @ ANTHROBEE WELLNESS #REVIEW…
Posted by Devenia Besant on 26 Nov 2024
What is a Sound Bath?
A sound bath is a meditative experience where you are “bathed” in sound waves, where vibrations ripple through the body, dissolving tension and stress. The vibration sounds weave through the mind to unravel anxiety and bring balance and calm into our being.
Sound Baths @ Anthrobee Wellness
With a busy life of being here there and everywhere (like most!) I literally jumped at the opportunity of an hour of calm and tranquility in my life at Anthrobee Wellness for a sound bath session. Having experienced a sound bath before I knew this is just what I needed and I took along my husband for his very first experience. When we arrived at Antonia’s studio we felt an immediate sense of calm, Antonia has a beautiful friendly caring aura that puts you at ease straight away. The session is scheduled for 1 hour however Antonio uses this as a guide only and reads the room – sometimes it may be longer if people need more time to get into a relaxed state, her focus is on you and not the minutes!
The studio has a gorgeous smell of essential oils and after offering us a herbal tea, Antonia explained how the session would work. She explained that you may or may not fall asleep but just to relax and allow yourself to go. Antonia also said at any point during the session that if you wanted to sit up or visit the bathroom that was absolutely fine.
The small group that attended were encouraged to make themselves comfortable on a mat and Antonio offered each of us to choose an Oracle card – each card holding a message which we may relate to or feel a connection. This affirmation almost sets off your rest with a positive focus in mind. This was followed by choosing an essential oil to rub into the palm of your hands and inhale, Anthony chose Bergamot and I chose Neroli.
To add to the calming environment the studio walls are adorned with spiritual art work and messaging. The lighting was low and the ceiling peacefully decorated with star effects – it was really just totally peaceful and tranquil.
Provided for you at the session is:
– A cosy blanket
– A Mat
– A Eye Mask / Cushion
– Leg Rest
You are encouraged to bring an extra blanket and pillow for extra comfort.
Antonia talks you firstly into relaxation by giving you breathing exercises and then the sound bath starts and the vibrations and sounds really do put you into a heavy relaxed state. There was no sitting up for us we just really took the time out to completely switch off and lose ourselves in the session, a break from every day thoughts. I cannot recommend this highly enough – not only will you end the session feeling energised, you will have a much clearer and peaceful mind and a more positive one too.
Self Care Tips
With the busy Christmas period coming up I asked Antonia for some daily self care tips to help us along the way, here’s what she says:
Wellness isn’t a luxury—it’s a routine.
Simple, daily habits can transform your well-being:
✨ Stay hydrated to fuel your energy.
✨ Move your body in ways you enjoy.
✨ Prioritize sleep for rest and renewal.
✨ Practice mindful breathing to find calm.
✨ Nourish yourself with vibrant, wholesome foods.
✨ Limit screen time to give your mind a break.
✨ Connect with nature to ground yourself.
✨The energy you surround yourself with has a huge influence on how you feel.
✨Practice gratitude
And here’s one more: make time for stillness. A sound bath is the perfect way to reset your mind and body, using calming vibrations to help you truly relax and recharge.
