When People Reset, Everything Realigns.
Making space for people to reset isn’t just caring — it’s good business.
The gongs make it surprisingly easy — and effective.
Why Forward-Thinking Groups Are Turning to Sound
The answer is simple: because sound quickly and effectively reduces stress
And the costs of stress are enormous — on both the personal and the organizational level.
Stress is felt in the hurry and the worry — in the strained communication between people.
Stress compromises health, focus, vitality, happiness — and the quality of how we relate to others.
Beyond the personal toll, an organization pays a heavy cost when its people are out of balance.
The Costs of Stress and Burnout
Stress doesn’t just live in people — it lives in the systems around them.
And it shows up in ways that are easy to miss… until they’re too big to ignore.
1. Poor Team Dynamics & Communication
Stress impairs emotional regulation, reducing trust and collaboration.
Poor internal communication is a top-cited factor in project failure.
(Project Management Institute, 2021)
2. Decreased Productivity
Chronic stress impairs memory, focus, and decision-making.
The American Institute of Stress estimates over $300 billion annually in productivity losses due to stress
in the U.S. alone.
3. High Turnover
Burnout is a leading cause of employee turnover in mid-to-senior level roles.
Replacing a single employee can cost 50%–200% of their annual salary.
(Gallup, 2022; SHRM, 2023)
4. Loss of Innovation
Burned-out team members are less likely to take creative risks.
Stress narrows thinking and reduces cognitive flexibility — a key driver of innovation.
(Harvard Business Review, 2019; American Psychological Association)
5. Presenteeism
Stressed employees often show up to work but underperform, known as presenteeism.
Presenteeism costs employers more than absenteeism, especially in knowledge-based industries.
(Harvard Business Review, 2020; WHO, 2022)
6. Absenteeism & Sick Leave
Chronic stress is the leading cause of long-term sick leave in most developed countries.
(CIPD Health and Wellbeing at Work Report, 2023)
It leads to more unplanned absences, with significant costs in lost time, disrupted workflows, and
reduced team continuity.
7. Health Costs
Workplace stress contributes to chronic conditions like heart disease, hypertension, and anxiety disorders.
Organizations bear higher insurance premiums, claims, and long-term disability costs.
(WHO, 2022; Mayo Clinic)
Gong Baths Give a Real Pause from the Pressure
Participants Lie Down and Let the Gongs Do the Work.
A pause not just from responsibilities and external demands — but from the internal noise: stressful
thoughts, tension in the body, emotional strain.
As the sound unfolds, breathing slows. Muscles loosen. The nervous system settles. The mind quiets.
No effort is needed.
They lie down, close their eyes, and the gongs do the work.
The pressure begins to soften the moment the sound begins.
Gongs create a rich, enveloping atmosphere that gently draws people out of their thoughts — away from
to-do lists and tension — and into a surprising sense of beauty and stillness.
There’s nothing to figure out, no skill to master.
People simply lie down and listen.
The sound helps them return to a natural state — one that existed before the stress set in.
Gentle. Clear. Present.
Unlike other forms of sound or music, gongs don’t just create tones — they produce waves of vibration
that move through the body.
It’s like a massage made of sound — releasing tension not just emotionally, but physically.
