Step into the medicine of total acoustic immersion.
The Concentric Sacred Sounds All-Night Gong Puja is an extraordinary overnight sound sanctuary where participants are bathed continuously in the resonant frequencies of sacred gongs for a full 8-hour sleep cycle. Held in honour of World Gong Puja Day celebrated later in September, in celebration of Concentric’s founder’s birthday, and in conscious anticipation of the approaching Autumn Equinox, this sacred overnight journey invites our community into a field of collective gratitude, balance, and deep energetic alignment.
As night falls, you will be welcomed into a consecrated space designed for ultimate comfort, somatic release, and spiritual realigning. We begin with an intimate, heart-opening ceremonial cacao ritual and grounding practice to set personal and collective intentions. As you settle into your nest for the night, a continuous, seamless wave of gong resonance will envelop you—attuning to the natural ocean tides and brainwave rhythms needed for deep cellular regeneration, subconscious unwinding, and emotional integration.
You will drift between conscious dream states, deep sleep, and expanded awareness while the gong field cleanses the energetic body, quietens the mental chatter, and re-attunes your spirit. We gently close at dawn with a soft wake-up sequence, gentle movement, and a nourishing light breakfast to ground your journey before returning to the world renewed.

Holding this sacred space from the night of September 5th through the dawn of September 6th anchors us into a powerful convergence of global energy, seasonal shifts, and personal lineage:
In Advance of the Autumn Equinox (Mabon): As the wheel of the year turns toward the Equinox later this month, nature prepares for equal day and equal night. Gathering in early September allows us to cultivate inner equilibrium in advance—inviting us to harvest the fruits of our personal growth, release what no longer serves, and balance our internal light and shadow before entering the darker, reflective half of the year.
Honouring World Gong Puja Day & Global Peace: Celebrated globally throughout September, the Gong Puja tradition is a devotional offering for collective healing and world peace. By gathering in early September, our sanctuary bridges into the worldwide grid of sound practitioners, amplifying our shared intentions for harmony, unity, and global restoration.
Celebrating Concentric Founder's Birthday: This session holds deep personal reverence as an intention-setting sanctuary for Concentric's founder, Madeleine. Gathering in sacred space around her birthday creates a potent matrix for personal rebirth, honoring the circle of community, and weaving shared intentions into the year ahead.
Building Toward the Pisces Full Moon: Early September builds toward the mystical Virgo-Pisces lunar axis. While Virgo energy invites us to refine our daily lives and physical vessels, the gongs open the portal to Pisces’ watery domain—dissolving boundaries, heightening intuition, and releasing subconscious emotional weight that can no longer be carried forward.
The Alchemy of Night to Dawn: In ancient wisdom traditions, the midnight-to-dawn vigil represents a symbolic journey through the darkness into spiritual re-emergence. Surrendering to the sacred gong field across the entire night allows the egoic mind to drop its guard, creating room for profound cellular healing, lucid insights, and a clean energetic baseline.
Our session will begin with a heart-led meditation, preparing our inner energetic pathways to receive the healing frequencies of the gongs. We then transition into the sacred sound journey, allowing participants to move into deep relaxation and inner journey. The session concludes with a sacred pause with silence, followed by a gratitude meditation as we welcome the rising of the sunrise.
If you have been seeking a unique and profound self-care experience, deeper meditative states, emotional release, and a potential shift in your consciousness and connection to your authentic self - this is a sound journey not to be missed. Come rest your body, release the noise, and wake up to a new dawn within.

Created by Yogi Bajan and Don Conreaux, the Gong Puja is a sacred ceremony in which gongs are played continuously for 7.5 hours - the equivalent of ten 45-minutes Gong Baths. It’s a very powerful experience - breaking up blockages at a cellular & energetic level, activating & increasing flow of our life-force energies.
