3.5" Tibetan Singing Bowl Set

So, what exactly is a Tibetan singing bowl? The singing bowl is a metal bowl often used in spiritual or religious settings to invoke meditation or relaxation through the resounding vibrations and pleasant sounds it emanates when played. These sounds can be very powerful; singing bowls can also be used in sound therapy to induce healing and treat various illnesses.

The sounds the singing bowls produce are said to create a kind of energy that may center the frequencies of the body, mind, and soul. Playing these bowls has also been said to cause the left and right sides of the brain to synchronize, creating peace and calm during meditation. The resonant vibration that a singing bowl produces has an amazing impact on the human body and helps to bring you back into balance.

How do you meditate with a Tibetan singing bowl?

Singing bowls can be used for meditation in a variety of ways. While meditating, you can gently tap on the sides of the bowl to produce gentle sounds and vibrations that you can focus on. You can incorporate repetitive motion into your meditation by slowly rubbing the mallet around the inside of the bowl in a clockwise direction.

Clean your singing bowl by wiping it down gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth. You can also use a non-acidic sanitizing cleanser to remove soiled spots. Avoid harsh cleansers, and never put your bowl in the dishwasher.

A singing bowl can be used with or without water. Water in the bowl can produce different resonant vibrations and sounds.
