Question 1

What do I need to bring with me?

Accepted Answer

Please bring a water bottle and wear warm, comfortable clothing. You may like to bring your own yoga mat, blanket, small pillow or cushion, and eye mask/pillow, however these will also be provided.

Question 2

Is there parking at The Wellness Barn?

Accepted Answer

Yes there is free parking in the car park. Please don't park in the reserved spaces directly in front of The Wellness Barn.

Question 3

Do I need to lie on a yoga mat for the session?

Accepted Answer

Yoga mats are provided at the studio but I am also able to offer two recliner chairs to anyone who would prefer not to lie on a yoga mat on the floor. Please email me elspeth@pausetobe.co.uk to reserve a chair.

Question 4

Are there WC's at the venue?

Accepted Answer

Yes there is an accessible toilet at the venue.

Question 5

Is this suitable for everyone?

Accepted Answer

This event is not suitable for anyone in their first trimester of pregnancy, or those with sound induced epilepsy, unmanaged bipolar or psychosis. Participants should not attend if they are under the influence of alcohol or recreational drugs.

Question 6

I had surgery recently - can I still attend?

Accepted Answer

We advise that you wait for at least 6 weeks post surgery and that any wounds are fully healed before you participate in a soundbath. If in any doubt, please contact your healthcare professional to check.

Question 7

Are there any health conditions you need to be aware of?

Accepted Answer

Please advise me if you have any of the following: stent, shunt, pacemaker, metal implant or nerve damage, so that I can ensure you aren't too close to the sound (guidance is 20cm).

Question 8

What happens if I don't feel relaxed or comfortable?

Accepted Answer

I advise everyone to let go of achieving any particular outcome. Sound can affect each of us in different ways, so your mind may still be busy while the person next to you is fast asleep! I ask everyone at the beginning of the session to give me a little wave if they feel uncomfortable at any point.

Question 9

What if I fall asleep?

Accepted Answer

This is very normal and a good sign that you've entered a state of deep relaxation. If you fall asleep you'll still absorb the vibrations of the sound and receive the benefits.
