 t is a sound bath?A sound bath is an immersive sonic experience\, most oft
 en accompanied by acoustic instruments\, light percussion and singing\, an
 d other ambient sounds. Attendees usually either sit or lie down\, close t
 heir eyes\, and allow their thoughts to slow down as the sound of the inst
 ruments helps to create a gentle\, meditative space for the mind to explor
 e. Attendees sometimes report feeling as if they are in a dreamlike state\
 , and some even begin to enter the dreaming world while still maintaining 
 a level of present-moment consciousness.\n\n\n\nPhysiologically\, the soun
 d of the instruments promotes a physical and mental state where the sympat
 hetic nervous system (responsible for stress responses and defense\, a.k.a
 . "fight-or-flight") can relax and let the parasympathetic nervous system 
 (responsible for relaxation\, resting states\, digestion and repair to tis
 sues and organs\, a.k.a. "rest-and-digest") take over. Small\, initial sci
 entific studies of sound healing have shown a reduction in stress hormones
 \, chronic pain\, and anxious thoughts and feelings.
