Discover the Power of an Overnight Gong Puja: Deep Rest for Leaders and Coaches
In today’s high-demand workplaces, HR practitioners, coaches, and leaders often carry significant emotional and cognitive load. Deep rest is no longer a luxury it is a necessity for clarity, resilience and sustainable performance. Traditional approaches that we offer such as meditation or short retreats are helpful, but what if you could experience a profound overnight reset designed to recalibrate both mind and body?
What is a Gong Puja?
A Gong Puja is a sacred overnight ceremony where gongs are played continuously for eight hours. Unlike a performance or a typical sound bath, it is a container of sound that supports complete nervous system rest. Participants arrive, create their own resting space, and surrender to the unfolding frequencies. Through the night, the uninterrupted vibration facilitates emotional release, deeper awareness, and a level of restorative sleep rarely achieved in daily life.
At dawn, we enter a period called Shunyata, 30-minutes of shared silence that allows the body and mind to integrate the frequencies, followed by a light communal breakfast. This structured, immersive experience provides both immediate calm and longer-lasting neurophysiological benefits.
Led by Experienced Practitioners
This overnight experience is facilitated by three Gong Tutors from the College of Sound Healing, including Danielle North author, leadership coach and sound practitioner known for integrating voice, vibration, and ritual into grounded, restorative work. Together with Aleka Powell and Annette Shaw, the team holds a consistent, expertly crafted field of sound throughout the night to support deep rest and inner recalibration.
Why It Matters for HR and Coaching Professionals
For those guiding others through stress, burnout or organisational transformation, personal experience of deep systemic rest is invaluable. The Gong Puja allows leaders and coaches and practitioners to:
- Experience profound parasympathetic activation and nervous system reset.
- Enhance emotional regulation and resilience.
- Develop first-hand understanding of immersive, non-cognitive modalities that can support wellbeing initiatives. Many participants describe the experience as “dreaming inside sound,” unexpectedly emotional and gently transformative. It’s the perfect space for professionals who want to embody presence and calm while supporting others.
