Spiritual Gathering with Sound and Silence

At Spirit Connection, the focus is on sound; sound is a powerful tool to bypass the thinking mind and connect with the deeper, all-encompassing consciousness. It reaches beyond just music, it is a form that cannot be easily grasped or explained.

Yet it can shift attention from judgement and the limitations of the senses to a deeper awareness. Thoughts, emotions and the body quiet down, expanding your presence. Your whole being comes into vibration and resonates with the source of inner stillness and peace.

During our various spiritual gatherings/events, we work with sound and pure feeling, guided meditation, breathing exercises, movement and poetry, allowing you to fall back into your deep, natural breathing, resulting in total relaxation. Our retreats are also a warm experience of togetherness in which everything is received and shared with lightness.

About Spirit Connection
and what we stand for

Gwen & Harry:

At some point, a deep yearning for something essential arose in us. The question "Who am I really?" set us on the track of inner reflection and self-examination.

During this journey, we discovered how powerful and healing sound and silence can be. We experienced that sound helps to direct attention away from the personal story, shaped by our bodies, thoughts and emotions, to a state of consciousness free of stories and all-encompassing.

To share these insights with others, we created "Spirit Connection | power of sound".

Over the years, we have deepened our experience and expertise. We discovered that sound is a reliable guide to achieving deep relaxation and letting go of thinking. What then remains is a direct experience of unconditional, conscious presence.

Our spiritual
meetings/events:

Concerts

Our concerts are spiritual gatherings / events where we completely relax together through sound. At our concerts, we use various sound instruments such as; Gongs, various types of singing bowls and other overtone instruments. The resonances of the sounds produced by these sound instruments create a deep relaxation in which the feeling of separation from people and the world around you disappears.

Time and space blur as you get in touch with your deepest essence. Mental, emotional and physical layers of yourself enter a state of heightened flow and restoration. This melts away the ego's habitual resistance and creates a deep relaxation into pure, unconditional existence.

We combine this with professional musicians from the "Hymn to the Silence ensemble" including; Indian flute, violin, soprano, double bass, piano, soundscapes and guests.

Our goal of the Soundchapel concerts is to help you achieve complete relaxation and get in touch with your deepest essence.

Retreats

The aim of our retreats is to help you become better at feeling. During our retreats, we teach you to play gongs in a meditative way for yourself, as well as for others.

We have a 24-hour retreat and a 4-day retreat. Both retreats are for both advanced and beginners and everyone in between who are looking to deepen themselves and immerse themselves in pure awareness through sound.

24-hour gong retreat
(Resonance of being)

During our 24-hour gong retreat "Resonance of being", you will learn to play gongs in a meditative way so that you can always come to complete stillness through sound and do the same for others.

This 24-hour gong retreat focuses on the cycle of the day. The day breaks, a movement outwards, shining and blooming, followed by a gentle return inwards, ending in enveloping silence. With the Gongpuja as the finale.

For more information about our 24-hour gong retreat, you can always contact us by calling us at: +31 6 23 91 52 77 - or using our contact form via the button below.

4-day gong training and retreat

The 4-day gong training and retreat "Wheel of sound" is an intensive gong retreat in which you will practice a lot with the gongs. It includes a number of ceremonies including; Gongpuja with gongs and singing bowls, light Pranayama breathing exercises, Qi-gong exercises and poetry.

The retreat is 3 days followed by one night within a beautiful serene and comfortable location and delicious vegetarian meals by our chef.

Gongpuja

The Gongpuja is a ritual in which we are together for 7.5 hours during the night and the gongs are played non-stop in rotation by participants, next to which you lie down to sleep or meditate.

During gongpuja, the sense of separateness with the world around you disappears. Time and space dissolve into essential being. This causes a complete reset of the body/mind system. A beautifully liberating experience.

Sound Treatments & Healings

This sound treatment works on multiple layers of the human system: the physical, mental and emotional body. Here, sound acts as a vehicle and facilitator, raising the energetic frequency, breaking through blockages and providing support for stress, tension and sleep problems.

It also promotes awareness of deep-seated patterns and structures and helps restore the balance between yin and yang.

Solo

Our solo sound treatments and healings are completely focused on you, this is to help you with stress, tension and insomnia. Gwen starts with a guided meditation to start the journey in silence. You can also bring an intention and adjust your journey accordingly.

In the individual sessions, you lie on a specially made sound bed and afterwards you can enjoy a cup of tea or coffee quietly in our sound chapel and, if you wish, share your experience to interpret your insight. Individual soundtreatments last about 1:45 hours.

Price: €90
