Yoga, breathwork and sound baths from 7am to 9pm
A sound bath is a group relaxation session in which participants lie on mats under blankets while a practitioner plays gongs, crystal and Tibetan singing bowls, chimes and drums. There is nothing to do but listen. The sustained, overlapping tones make it easy to drift into a state between waking and sleep, and many people describe it as the most restful hour of their week.
Claims about specific healing frequencies or "vibrational healing" are not backed by evidence and should be taken lightly; what sound baths reliably offer is deep relaxation in a calm, communal setting. They are held in yoga studios, holistic centres, churches and spas, often around the new and full moon, and one-to-one sound therapy sessions are also available.
A group sound bath of 60 to 90 minutes usually costs £15 to £35, more for special events with cacao or candlelight; private sessions cost £60 to £120. Some gong sessions are loud, so mention to the practitioner if you have tinnitus, epilepsy, a pacemaker or are in early pregnancy, and bring a pillow if you have back problems.

Mayfair, Knightsbridge and Chelsea are home to the five-star hotel spas, where a spa day with lunch is priced as a special occasion and weekend slots go weeks ahead. Shoreditch has led the city's bathhouse and social sauna boom, with hot–cold circuits in railway arches and on rooftops that open late and book by the ninety-minute session. Kensington and Paddington hold the established holistic clinics, combining acupuncture, osteopathy and reflexology under one roof, while Soho's studios run yoga, breathwork and sound baths from early morning to late evening.
