Dr. Karambir Khalsa, PsyD is a Level I certified Aquarian instructor and a Licensed Psychologist living and working in Flagstaff, Arizona. For his doctoral dissertation, Dr. Khalsa conducted clinical (i.e., randomized, controlled) research studying the potential mental health effects of listening to a gong meditation daily for 2 weeks. The sample size was not large enough (due to the COVID-19 Pandemic) for findings to be conclusive; however, data did show that participants in the group which listened to an 11-minute recorded gong meditation daily for 2 weeks reported statistically significant reductions in trait anxiety compared to the group that listened to a recording of water sounds in nature. Dr. Khalsa’s gong meditations combine a variety of gongs, mallets, bells, and other tools and are intended to create a deep connection with one’s subconscious healing energies.
