Spirit of the Wind Horse

The essence of Horse Spirit is freedom. It is a noble and resilient force, with limitless energy at its core. - Lawren Leo

The Mongolian word ‘Khiimori’ means ‘Wind Horse’ and is the symbol for the human soul.  It represents one’s inner dynamic life force or chi and is symbolized by a galloping horse representing movement, strength and freedom.  If high you experience a state of flow with confidence, optimism and good fortune.  When depleted you may feel lost, fatigued, unlucky, and think ‘why me?’.

Ride with me and I will teach you what you need, for I am gentle and humble, and it's here you will find rest for the soul. Matthew 11:29

We strengthen our chi by elevating and harmonizing our internal energy. There is no better way than gongs to do so.  Gongs clear emotional blockages and remove stagnant energy.  The sounds of the gongs shift the parasympathetic nervous system towards resilience and vitality. They restore the unobstructed flow in circulation as well as release constraints of the mind by inducing a state of Theta leaving participants feeling a state of connectedness and peace - mirroring the Mongolian goal of living in harmony with the Eternal Blue Sky.

A horse's spirit knows no fences. Let yours run free, too. - anon
As I discovered in my research project during COVID for Svaram Sound Institute.  One 20 min gong bath each week for 12 weeks resulted in 100% improvement in sleep, 83% decrease in perceived stress and 72% improvement in overall wellbeing.  Today’s emphasis on neuro-wellbeing and prevention and maintenance strategies for longevity largely focus on wearables to monitor body functions and even sound emitting headbands to improve sleep.  My philosophy is to turn back the clock, to embrace the wisdom of the ancients to give our bodies the reset required to restore and balance our mind, body and spirit. 
We all just need to gong.  I invite you to make it a habit, a weekly gong reset.
