What's on in Amwell End

Hertfordshire, England

Amwell End sits quietly in Hertfordshire with a knack for turning ordinary evenings into proper nights out. The Ware Arts Centre has been hosting plays and gigs since before most of us were born, while the library keeps things lively with storytimes that make toddlers giggle uncontrollably. It is not about how loud it gets, but what you can actually do without driving three hours to find it. Local history comes alive at the Ware Museum where you can wander through exhibits and feel like you've stepped back in time. There are usually craft fairs popping up near the town centre if you fancy a browse with your morning coffee. We keep track of everything from open mic nights to family days so you do not have to waste Sunday evening scrolling endlessly.

Gong Bath

Gong Bath. An evening with Stillness – Meditation & Gongs The Power of the Gong Bath What is it? Gongs have been used as a form of sound healing since around 4,000 B.C. Records of using gongs have surfaced from as early as ancient Egyptian, Greek, and Roman times. A gong bath offers a deep form of relaxation, where you “bathe” in the soothing vibrations of sound. It can: • Quieten a busy mind, naturally relaxing brainwaves to a slower frequency. • Calm emotional upset, helping the body to come back into balance. • Create deep physical relaxation, reducing stress levels and lowering blood pressure. • Promote a sense of well-being by easing pain, stress, anxiety or depression. • Support deeper sleep, helping the brain to settle more easily. When sound waves travel through the body, they promote circulation, energy flow, and rejuvenation. The frequency of the sound synchronizes with the brainwaves and activates destress responses in the body. The result is you feeling calmer and more relaxed. What you have to do? You will be lying on the floor so you need to bring a yoga mat or something comfortable to lie on (people use sun lounger covers/bean bags etc), a pillow to support your head and enough blankets to keep you warm (sometimes the body temperature drops as we relax). Bring whatever will keep you warm and comfortable for the evening. What happens? The gongs produce different tones, patterns and vibrations which then work on the mind-body connection.
