XDrum Omshanti singing bowl 10 cm complete set

Sound Magic for Relaxation, Meditation and Inspiration!

You don’t have to be a devoted follower of spiritual concepts to perceive the holistically calming effect of the warm, earth-connected tones of Tibetan singing bowls. The vibrations and tones of these traditional sound vessels radiate an almost magical power. You intuitively feel how the sounds harmonize body and mind. The various techniques of striking and rubbing the bowl with the mallet produce richly nuanced tones that engage all the senses and induce deep relaxation, unclouded lightness, and the feeling of being at peace with yourself.

Applications

Singing bowls are used wherever emotional well-being is the highest priority. You can let their calming influence flow into your private everyday life, promote harmony and balance after a demanding workday, or indulge and inspire yourself through professional treatments. Not least, singing bowls are also exceptionally interesting musical instruments that add effective accents to your arrangements. Some specific examples of use are:

• Stress relief in everyday life
• Wellness treatments at spas
• Sound massages in psychotherapeutic settings
• Playful activities in children’s groups
• Yoga and meditation
• Pregnancy support
• Sound therapy in care settings
• Creative dance

The unique interplay of round, harmonious tones and gentle vibrations helps you let go, find your center, and relax. Singing bowl treatments can therefore also help with sleep and concentration disorders, muscle tension, and other complaints.

Origin

XDrum singing bowls are crafted in India using an elaborate process. While they were once used in the Himalayas mainly as cooking and eating vessels, Buddhist monks discovered the bowls as aids to meditation and thereby gave them an entirely new purpose.

Handmade One-Of-A-Kind Pieces

XDrum singing bowls are produced by painstaking handcrafting from seven materials. This alloy is made from the metals copper, zinc, iron, nickel, aluminum, silver, and gold. The exact composition can vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. To achieve the final shape and individual sound, the alloy is hammered into the desired form over a fire, often being heated and cooled up to 30 times.

Unlike machine-made bowls, the handcrafted XDrum models are unique one-of-a-kind pieces. A certain tolerance in diameter and weight of the bowl is perfectly normal and does not indicate a reduction in quality.

How to Use

To produce the soothing tones and vibrations, the bowls are struck or rubbed with a mallet. In this way the bowl can even be made to "sing." If several bowls are played at the same time, they create a unique, enchanting sound pattern.

Cushion

The singing bowl cushion serves as an underlay for the Tibetan singing bowl and affects the bowl’s tone color and vibration behavior. It prevents the sound produced when the bowl is struck from being influenced by the surface underneath—such as a table or floor—or by other background noises. Thus, the cushion ensures a warm, long-lasting, and soft tone. Another advantage of a singing bowl pad is the stable support provided by its flexible filling. In addition, this visually beautiful cushion presents your singing bowl decoratively.

Mallet

Choosing the right mallet is very important to achieve a pleasant sound. It must match the character of the bowl and its size and material have a decisive influence on the tone. For example, a mallet that is too large or too soft can produce a dull, muted sound. This set includes the optimal mallet in the appropriate size.

Tibetan singing bowls appeal to body, mind, and soul and open the way for you to see new horizons!
