  • Sound Healing – How To Play Gongs - June 22, 2016

Introducing the Gong

The dictionary definition of a gong is simply a resonant metal disk or saucer-shaped bell that emits sound waves when struck by a hammer. But in actual fact, the gong is far more than this concise description encapsulates. It is, in fact, a versatile sound healing instrument capable of producing a wide variety of intricate acoustic tones depending on how it is played.

The combination of striking force, striking sequence, striking rhythm imparted to the gong by the player, coupled with the resultant oscillatory wave motion of the resonating gong, all contribute to the final quality of the generated sound and the transmitted healing effect. In this posted article, I will be taking a brief tour of the foundation steps to explore more about the acoustic characteristics of the gong and how to play it.

Types and Sizes of Gong

Gongs can be classified into two distinct categories : hand-held and stand-mounted. Typically, sound healers tend to concur that the ideal and most comfortable size range for hand-held gongs is between 18-20 inch (45-50 cm) in diameter. Any smaller than 18 inch potentially reduces the quality of tone and thus the resultant range of healing effects may diminish. Conversely, depending on your strength, gongs larger than 20 inch can become quite cumbersome and heavy for carrying around and working off the body of a client. 

Sound Healing Academy endorses three specific types of gong :

First off is the simple Wind Gong –being of a thin, flat shaped, rim-less disk, it is relatively lightweight, easy to hold and manoeuvre, thus ideal for playing around a client. 

Second, and slightly more sophisticated, is the Chow Gong –its rimmed construction enables the capacity for larger sizes beyond that of wind gongs, and so heavier and capable of deeper tones on the limits of hand-held practicality. 

At the top end of the scale is the Symphonic Gong, an imposing presence in any sound healing space – its size and weight makes it unsuitable for hand-held work for any length of time and so are often stand mounted.

The gong’s static position enables it to be raised to the same height as the client so that the client can benefit from the stream of emerging sound waves.

Types of Gong Mallet

The hardness or softness of the striking end of the gong mallet is key to the sound produced. The harder the mallet end, the brighter the sound whilst, a softer ends yield more muted and mellow tones. It recommended to have a variety of cloth-ended mallets available to explore the range of tonal extremes.

In addition, percussion mallets with a small ball head, are ideal for playing the gong’s rim and creating high tones. Also small rubber headed balls –or flumy, can be drawn across the gong’s face to produce whale-like timbres. There is also, of course, the use of our very own finger tips!

Gong Playing Zones

The circular disk of a gong can be classified into three distinct playing zones:

There is the central hub – where the fundamental notes and deepest tones are to be found.

Further out is the outer annulus – towards the edge of the gong is where the overtones evolve and higher pitches will register.

Then at the periphery is the rim – in larger sized gongs, this is the mechanically stiffest part of its construction and so possesses the highest resonant frequencies.

More often than not, the sound healer is seeking either the releasing or harmonising effect of multiple tones that lay beyond the resonance of the fundamental note. Consequently, the gong’s hub is considered inert space and so the gong is generally played off- centre, to the side of the central zone, to benefit from the myriad of overtones in its outer disk.

Setting the Gong

In order for the incident sound waves from the gong to emerge as pristine as possible, without undergoing resistance, or being unduly altered or distorted by reflection from internal surfaces or impinging bodies, it is worth considering the gong’s placement in the surrounding space when it is being played. Multiple reflections, not always heard as distinct echoes, have the effect of prolonging or “colouring” the original sound quality.

Reverberation time of an enclosed space will vary according to room dimensions, the distance between the gong and other surfaces, each surface having a different sound absorption rate. Acoustic screens – such as curtains, carpets, will attenuate high frequencies. Panel and cavity walls will soak up low frequencies. So perhaps experiment to see what sounds best. Placing the gong in a space such that there is equal and unimpeded distance forward and aft of the gong, will help to optimise and preserve the original sound qualities.

Priming the Gong

As a prelude to working with the gong within a sound healing session, it is customary to initially “wake-up” the instrument from slumber – to get it resonating! This process is termed “Priming the Gong” and can be achieved by slowly and gently tapping within the outer annulus, either using the fingers or a soft-headed mallet, and letting the sounds quietly and gradually emerge and blossom.

Gong Volume Control

In a typical gong session, the sound is introduced quietly, increasing the volume to reach a crescendo and then allowing that intensity to diminish, even into silence before repeating this sequence over a few minutes. Thus, being able to generate and control the volume of the emerging sound is a key practice to master. 

Sound volume or, more technically, the amplitude of the sound wave, is proportional to how much force is applied to the gong when striking it. Striking the gong perpendicular to the disk –i.e. tapping, will cause a single resultant force in the same direction. But, applying a glancing blow causes two lesser forces to be generated and thus moderates the sound’s volume. So by varying the glancing angle of strike, the intensity of sound can be managed.

The amplitude of sound can also be augmented by increasing the frequency of strikes or tempo –the speed of repetitive strikes. The more strikes in a given time, the higher the volume for the same force. 

In all styles of playing, the volume is kept intentionally low as this serves to be more restful and relaxing for the client. There may be an occasion when a loud “thunderbolt” strike is required to shake things up – but usually the gong’s extensive range of tones are nurtured by a soft and gentle touch and naturally allowed to work their magic.

Simple Gong Playing Techniques

So, for the reasons given, the glancing strike is the most widely used and versatile way of imparting a force to resonate the gong. This skimming movement of the mallet across the gong disk, either as a down-stroke (when below the gong centre) or as an up-stroke (when above gong centre), stems from a flicking motion centred at the player’s wrist. This technique is key to master playing the gong.  The force and effort imparted within the glancing strike can be varied and graded simply as soft, firm and hard –with a 25-50% increase in force delivery between each grade. 

It will be noticed that repeated striking of the gong will actually deaden the sound, inhibiting it to fully resound across its tonal range. The player will recognise that to harvest the full sound spectrum from a single glancing strike, sufficient time must be allowed between consecutive strokes for the sound to blossom to its full potential.

The gong is a percussion instrument. So rhythm and tempo are vital facets of gong playing to allow for that all-important sound emergence. Once again, the speed at which the strokes are imparted can be simply graded as slow, medium and fast –with a 25-50% increase in speed between each grade.  So these basic techniques enables the player to get the gong resonating to achieve the instrument’s full sound potential. In addition, the player needs to be able to attenuate or dampen the emerging sound. Dampening can be achieved in one of two ways : either by placing a hand firmly on the gong rim –diminishing the sound rapidly or, more gradually, by pressing a soft-headed mallet against the disk to deaden the sustain.

Gong Sequences 

Another aspect to gong playing is to establish where to strike the gong disk to achieve the desired sound effect. Systematically, one can imagine the gong’s disk resembling points on a clock face with 12 o’clock at the top. The clock face analogy is very useful when trying to build and later, reproduce a sequence of strokes to create a desired sound and healing effect.

One particular simple 4-stroke sequence is 6-3-12-9 or the cardinal points sequence. The arrows beside each clock position in the sequence is indicative of the direction of glancing stroke for a right-handed player. It is also possible subtly raise or lower the note frequency or pitch at each clock position simply by reversing the direction of the glancing stroke.

So for example, the tonal frequency at the 6 o’clock position can increased by an up-stroke towards the gong centre instead of the conventional down-stroke towards the rim. Conversely, at the 12 o’clock position, the pitch can be lowered by playing the stroke in the reverse direction. 

There are also combinations of 2-stroke diagonal sequences, like 3-9 and 2-8 and their reversals, that offer further potential for different tones and pitches. However, when playing the gong’s diagonals, in particular, it causes the gong to “wobble” out-of-plane producing “wah-wah” and pulsing effects. This adds yet another dimension to gong playing by considering the resultant motions of the resonating gong and how such reactions can be used to generate and propagate wave motion as part of the healing effect.

3 Degrees of Gong Motion

A resonating hand-held gong can be set into three types of motion activating unique healing effects.

One technique is fanning the resonating gong axially forward and aft along its axis –towards and away from the client to introduce pulsating waves. The sound healer’s body position is vital; a relaxed centre-grounded stance will allow for ease of playing and it is essential to create a sense of balance in sync with the gong’s motion. The gong is held out to one side of the healer so that the emitted sound waves are not distorted by the healer’s own body. 

Another technique is swinging the vibrating gong, moving it laterally in-plane as if it were a clock pendulum. This motion is particularly useful when wanting to move around the client. Whereas the fanning motion is only suitable when the sound healer is static. 

The third technique is spinning the pulsating gong about its suspension axis. An added variation to this motion is allowing the spinning gong to vertically rise and fall towards and away from the client. This method is often employed over the client’s head to synchronise the two hemispheres –the logical left side and the intuitive right side, of the brain.  It is easier to play and manoeuvre the gong over a client when they are lying down on the floor as opposed to on a therapy couch. Consequently, the gong session can last longer thus improving the healing effectiveness. When working above the body it is essential to ensure that you have sufficient height and strength in order to fan, swing or spin the gong over the client.

I really enjoyed this class.  I learned a lot and now have a sound healing practice that is incredibly powerful and healing to share with my clients and friends.

How did you find the online learning portal?  Was it easy to navigate and find what you wanted?  Did you like the look and feel of it?  Any other comments?

The online portal was simple to use and was laid out well, no complaints, one of the best online trainings I have taken!

How have you found the exercises, video tutorials, audio recording, handbook, and support provided? 

I found all of the course materials extremely helpful and educational.  The handbook is well put together and informative.  It was wonderful to connect with Janice my Sound Healing Tutor!   

What if anything would you recommend we change to improve the Class?

I honestly can’t think of anything I would change.  I loved this course, I learned a lot and hope to continue to the next phase when it is offered.

What are your honest feelings and feedback about this Class?

Loved it!  This class was very practical and straightforward, with a lot of solid, useful information. I’m by no means a beginner to sound healing so much of the material in this course I already knew pretty well.  But there were plenty of things I didn’t.  And new and different techniques for playing.  It’s a perfect introduction course.  

Was it easy to navigate and find what you wanted?  Yes very easy to navigate.

Did you like the look and feel of it?  Yes it looked very nice and up to date.  But the light and color in the videos themselves are what's really great.  I wish I had an awesome sunroom to play sound in all day!

How have you found the exercises, video tutorials, audio recording, handbook, and support provided?  I love to read about interesting stuff like this, so I think the handbook could be a little longer maybe and pack a little more information in there.  That would be my only suggestion. But everything looked/sounded great.  

What if anything would you recommend we change to improve the Class?  I wouldn’t change anything! It’s a perfect intro. 

Josh Workman, USA


What are your honest feelings and feedback about this Class?  

I thought this course was very easy to follow and the two webinars were well put together. I realize how difficult it must be to coordinate the webinars so that most people can watch live and I appreciated that this could happen.The videos of working with the sound instruments were great and the option for comments at the end was also a great feature. Also appreciated were the prompt and helpful replies.

I have loved this course from start to finish. I have found everyone concerned with making this course happen to be very helpful and obliging, both Tony and Jane, and I have recently had the pleasure of meeting Anne, the Australian arm of the Sound Healing Academy. I found her warmth and enthusiasm inspiring and I hope to be able to take part in one of her courses in the near future.

Thank you

What are your honest feelings and feedback about this course?  

Fantastic! This course was everything that I had hoped it to be and far more! I feel as though I have a great foundation and understanding of the world of therapeutic sound of which I am now ready to build upon. 

I am so pleased that I have pursued this course as I feel that I have been able to learn in a way that has really worked for me. The mix of practical and written exercises, along with the videos and course book, and the online and telephone support has proved to be a great learning experience.  

How did you find the online learning portal?  

I found the online learning portal excellent! As someone who trained in design for 4 years and then over the years studied in various therapeutic fields, all of which were attendance only learning, I had honestly never considered using online training. My previous misconception that attendance only training was really the only way to go has now been completely turned around by your online training course!

Far from feeling that I have missed out by not attending a course, I feel very much that I have got more out of it by following the online route, in that I can repeat videos over and over. Something of which we can’t do in a ‘live’ class! I think the fact that you offer an attendance course which has the same access to all of the online content of videos too is the perfect combination. Knowing that I can attend a course in person and still have the same access to all of the supporting videos that I would if I were purely doing it online, is great! 

Was it easy to navigate and find what you wanted?  

Yes I found it really easy and very clear to navigate and find what I wanted.

Did you like the look and feel of it?  

I particularly liked the way in which everything was set out. First impressions were that this was very professionally presented and had a really positive and vibrant feel about it, which in my mind creates a great environment of which to learn. Intentional or not, I have to say too that I loved the background sound of the birds and the possible rooster I could hear? This along with the background setting of the branches of the trees gently moving in the wind all added to the lovely natural feel of the online presentations. 

Any other comments?

In my own line of work, delivering various creative and mind body connection workshops, I have had people say to me that “you’re your work” and that first and foremost it’s about me engaging with people. If people are connected to me, then in turn I will be able to work with more people.

My passion has always been to support people, of all ages, in one way or another and because it is a passion, I get an awful lot out of it and really enjoy connecting with people, which I felt from watching your videos is very true for you Tony.

On initially Googling sound therapy courses, it led me to find some of your presentations on YouTube. For me what immediately jumped out was your own individual personality. I feel that the likeability factor is a big part of people’s decision making process and I think first and foremost there has to be a connection. It’s very difficult to learn from someone that you’re not connecting with!

Your clear and engaging style of presenting, along with a great passion and depth of knowledge for this subject area really comes across. I have also watched a video where Jane has co-presented too and again the same is true for Jane. So I feel very much that the saying “you’re your work” is very true for you. I think the videos that you send out to show what’s included in your courses are great because not only do they give people a great insight into the course content, but importantly allows people to connect with their potential tutor and that’s a real plus point in marketing your courses and along with my first impression of your YouTube videos, was also what I based my decision to study with you upon.          

How have you found the exercises, video tutorials, audio recording, handbook, and support provided?  

To be able to go back and watch something several times over is of great value, unlike training that is attendance only. Being able to repeat a section really enriches the learning experience and has completely changed my views of online training.  Having seen some of the online videos on YouTube, I particularly liked the way in which the information was presented; hence I was expecting great things! I have to say that this course has really exceeded my expectations. It has been a wonderful learning journey and I am really impressed with the standard of the content and the way in which it has all been put together and presented. Extremely high quality learning which was supported by having the ongoing help along the way through being able to ask questions as and when they came up.     

What if anything would you recommend we change to improve the course?

I have to be truly honest here when I say that there is genuinely nothing that I can suggest to improve upon the course. If something already works as perfectly as this clearly does, then I would say, keep it as it is! 

The course content is absolutely fantastic! Thank you for such a great learning experience!

Dawn McKelvie, UK 


What are your honest feelings and feedback about this course?  

I truly enjoyed the course. Besides learning of the physical properties of sound, the emotional content and intention is important, taking this experience beyond the “ evidence based” world of science and physics of sound. I enjoyed the variety of sounds that was introduced, and because of the truly positive experience I will consider doing the diploma when financially appropriate.

How did you find the online learning portal?  The online portal was easy to navigate.

Was it easy to navigate and find what you wanted?  Yes and encouraging advice along the way was very helpful.

Did you like the look and feel of it?  Yes, this was very user friendly

How have you found the exercises, video tutorials, audio recording, handbook, and support provided?  

I think it was a good mix between videos, reading and audios and I felt the practical component was well explained to make it the best learning process. Thank you for motivational comments along the way. I think the “comments” was a good way to reflect onto yourself how you are doing.

What are your honest feelings and feedback about this Class?  

I have absolutely loved this course.  The content online, through the teaching instruction videos, the audio downloads and the webinars was exceptional.  A lot of information with a nice balanced amount of spiritual and scientific information. 

How did you find the online learning portal?  Was it easy to navigate and find what you wanted?  Did you like the look and feel of it?  Any other comments?

The online portal was very easy to navigate and I was able to find what I wanted easily.

How have you found the exercises, video tutorials, audio recording, handbook, and support provided?  

Everything that is provided in this online course, is clear, easy to understand, full of stimulating information, if this is your interest.  The ability to ask questions and to receive an answer so promptly is a very supportive element, especially as you are able to see questions by other students, as if in a real class setting.

What if anything would you recommend we change to improve the Class?

Not a thing.  Thankyou Tony & Jane and my Australian Tutor Anne Ridgeway. I have resonated with this form of healing very deeply, and I have experienced first hand the powerful effects of sound. ;

Trina Norham

What are your honest feelings and feedback about this Class? 

I really enjoyed this training. It was the perfect balance of videos, handouts, workbook and information that I needed in order to enhance the training that I already had in sound therapy.  The videos were bright, cheerful and clear. Tony and Jane bring a calm sense of humour and awareness. I felt like I was getting exactly what I needed and I like that the videos were all between 5 and 10mins for the instruments.  I could return to them if I needed review and was able to practice between the lessons. I would definitely like to go to Bath for the full practitioner training program at some point in the near future.

How did you find the online learning portal? Was it easy to navigate and find what you wanted? Did you like the look and feel of it?  Any other comments?

It was excellent. As a graphic artist I was very impressed with the interface and design. I like the length of videos and the layout was easy to navigate. I like that I knew which ones I had viewed by the “Completed” buttons and I like that each one had little downloads of tracks and/or charts of reference. 

 How have you found the exercises, video tutorials, audio recording, handbook, and support provided?

All of the elements of the training were excellent (see above comments). I have done some sound training in my Spiritual Director training as well as in my yoga training but this foundation was amazing!  It was just what I needed to have a deeper foundation and the workbook was helpful to keep my practice going and tune-in to new methods of using the instruments that I had never used before. The videos are an excellent resource for me to compare and learn from visuals instead of reading books or filling my mind with lots of intellectual and factual things that I couldn’t relate to.  This online training made me feel like I was in the room with Tony and Jane. 

 What if anything would you recommend we change to improve the Class?

I quite liked the layout of the class work and wouldn’t change anything.  I like that there were mini sections on each instrument and then ones that pulled it all together. There was a nice balance of workbook, hands-on exploration and videos.  

Chris Johnstone, Canada

No complaints. Everything was awesome. Thank you for putting on this online course I really had fun!!

Saida Jusic, Canada 


What are your honest feelings and feedback about this Class? 

I feel this course is very informative and well taught.  I was most worried about the vocal toning and even procrastinated watching the videos.  But, once I watched this series of videos and actually tried it, I was surprised by how well it worked for me.  

How did you find the online learning portal? 

The online portal is the only way I was able to learn this.  I think it is a wonderful way to reach out to those who are interested.

Was it easy to navigate and find what you wanted?

The videos and web site are very organized and well put together.  Navigation was easy.  I liked the check mark feature on all the videos.  It was an easy way for me to pick up where I had left off.  The online portal is uncomplicated- making time for learning the course rather than how the website works.  The handbook was also well put together.  I printed it out for a hard copy.  I liked the short videos and audits.  I liked that I only had to watch a short video and could get right into trying it.    

Did you like the look and feel of it? 

The look and feel is good.  It is designed to be simple and accessible for the user.  It was.

Any other comments?

I would have liked to hear all the audio combined as well as separate.

How have you found the exercises, video tutorials, audio recording, handbook, and support provided? 

Everything about the online portal is easy and manageable.  The videos and audio are clear and direct.  The handbook is well written and printable.  I think access via email and having a tutor available to help at any time is also very beneficial. I enjoyed the skype call as well.  It helped to bring clarity and confidence and answer some of my questions

Sheri Arsenault, Canada 


What are your honest feelings and feedback about this Class? 

I enjoyed these practices with friends. I feel it’s very useful before I’m going out.

How did you find the online learning portal?  Was it easy to navigate and find what you wanted?  Did you like the look and feel of it?  Any other comments?

I really love this online learning portal. It really suits best for my situation at this moment.  I was not sure if I’d like to go any further studies with sound healing. By taking online course, it gives me a better idea on how far I’d like to go. The portal is easy to navigate. I love the look and feel of it. I really like it and wouldn’t change for anything else. It’s simple and directive. I love the simplicity of it.

How have you found the exercises, video tutorials, audio recording, handbook, and support provided? 

The exercises, video tutorials and support are excellent. It obviously well planned, well thought. The audio recording is quite challenging because I have experienced the life sound vibration of crystal bowls and tuning fork – and it can’t be replaced with life sound vibration. The handbook is useful –at the same time, I’m happy that I have purchased other books that you have suggested. It helps by reading additional book.

What if anything would you recommend we change to improve the Class?

None – I truly appreciate this online learning set up. It gives the flexibility for people who has to work other job.

  • How does Distant Sound Healing Work? Part 1 - December 15, 2016

Since we started sound healing training in 2003, we’ve monitored the effectiveness of the healing process that we teach.

Over the past 13 years we’ve analysed thousands of case studies carried out by our students worldwide and we now know what works and what to avoid.

We’ve focussed what we know into a unique 10 Step Integral Sound Healing process, and we’ve produced a short video about it, which you can view below.

This video is the first part in a series of video tutorials from one Module in our Level 2 Practitioner Diploma in Sound Healing course.

The 10 Steps to Sound Health are:

1. Establish a strong, positive connection with your client, working with healing sounds

2. Set a clear, positive intention, with healing sounds as the carrier of consciousness

3. Make an accurate assessment of the energy fields of your client to identify imbalances – you can use the sounds of instruments or your voice to do this

4. Co-create resonance with your client with healing sounds

5. Trigger the relaxation response with healing sounds

6. Facilitate the release of suppressed emotions with healing sounds

7. Transform resistance with healing sounds

8. Reform new patterns of health and wellness with healing sounds

9. Facilitate reflection, using the sound of silence and other techniques

10. Recommend sound healing exercises for your client to do in-between sessions

This 10 Step Integral Sound Healing process is covered in more depth in our Level 2 Practitioner Diploma courses.

In this video, Tony Nec from the Sound Healing Academy outlines our new on-line course leading to the Level 1 Foundation Certificate in Sound Healing with Tuning Forks.

 

 

This new course will open for registrations on 31st March 2016.



WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?

It’s a great course for people who want to learn how to work with tuning forks to help themselves and their family and friends.

This course is ideal if you want to focus on healing with tuning forks and you’re not so interested in working with other sound healing instruments at this stage in your learning and development.

If you’ve already taken a general multi-instrument sound healing course with us, and you want to dive more deeply into working with tuning forks, this course is also good for you….

It’s the first level in our training to become a professional sound healing practitioner specialising in tuning forks.

So, after you’ve completed the Level 1 course you can move onto our on-line course: Level 2 Practitioner Diploma in Sound Healing With Tuning Forks!
