Singing bowls

Singing bowls, also known as Tibetan singing bowls, are ancient instruments that are often used in meditation and mindfulness practices. These bowls produce a soothing, calming sound when struck or played with a mallet, which can help to quiet the mind and induce a state of relaxation.

You use singing bowls to set a peaceful, soothing tone and mood that help you focus on the present. They are also popularly used to calmly signal the beginning and end of a session.

Further, if you’re not in a quiet environment, the sound of Tibetan singing bowls drowns out background noise and distractions, allowing you to enter a meditative state easily despite the ambient noise around.

Singing bowls can also be used for sounding meditation. This is when you strike the bowl and allow the sound to guide your breath and focus your mind. Sound meditation can be particularly effective for those who find it difficult to quiet the mind during traditional meditation.

In addition to their use in meditation, singing bowls are also often used in sound therapy and other healing practices. The sound of the bowls is believed to have a therapeutic effect on the mind and body and can be used to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and improve overall well-being.
