What is a singing bowl?

A singing bowl is a semi-circular bowl made of brass or bronze that produces very harmonious tones and vibrations. These can spread very beneficially in our body and reach your subconscious. Singing bowls are artistically decorated, engraved or simply offered as a hammered version. Which is the right singing bowl for you also depends on your intended use. You can use the singing bowl for yoga, meditation and sound therapy.

By using different mallets, such as wood or felt mallets, you can elicit different tones, higher or lower tones, from your singing bowl. You can also rub the edge with a wooden mallet and thus create vibrations.

The effect of the singing bowl

The effect of singing bowls can range from improving the immune system and balancing the chakras to reducing stress and anxiety. When the gong or the “Ooommmm” of the singing bowl sounds, concentration increases. Since sound is a very strong medium, maybe even the strongest of all, since it changes our mind into 2 states of consciousness, a deep relaxation occurs. Dopamine, the happiness messenger, is released. Since our body consists of 80% water, the vibrations can penetrate deep into the tissue. This results in deep relaxation. Blockages, tension and pain dissolve.

Before a singing bowl can unfold its effect, the correct handling must be learned. There are basically two ways to use a singing bowl:

  1. Rubbing the outside of the singing bowl. Here the outside and the edge of the singing bowl is circled with the help of the mallet or mallet. The singing bowl begins to "sing". It is important to hold the singing bowl in the left palm and the racket in the right hand. Circle the bowl clockwise.
  2. Knocking or striking the bowl. You hold the singing bowl in the palm of your hand or place it on a stable surface. Now hit the singing bowl lightly from the outside. The sound will linger for several seconds. You can also hit the singing bowl several times in succession to let a rhythmic song sound.

You will find detailed step-by-step instructions for both beginners and advanced users in our article "Using Singing Bowls: How to do it right!" Here's the post!

Meditate with singing bowls

Singing bowls are very popular in combination with meditation. Since it is not always easy to step into a meditative state far away from the stressful everyday life, the tonal background of the singing bowl helps. The singing bowl can be placed on a pillow on the lap (cross-legged) during meditation. You can either circle or hit the bowl with the clapper on the outside. With every single vibration of the singing bowl you descend deeper into a state of complete relaxation and clarity. Guided singing bowl meditations, in which you do not have to hit the bowl yourself, are popular for this purpose. Our tip, however, is to try such a meditation yourself, as you will find your own rhythm faster.

Massage and yoga with singing bowls

The singing bowl massage is based on the ancient knowledge of the effects of sounds. Healing sounds have been used in Indian healing therapy for more than 5000 years. The Far Eastern view goes one step further: According to the Indian view, man consists of sound. Man is sound. If the human being is "in harmony" with himself and his environment, then he is able to live freely and creatively.

The singing bowl is used particularly often in combination with yoga. The singing bowl is not only used for the tonal support of the individual yoga exercise, but also ensures pleasant vibration and swinging when placed correctly on individual parts of the body. For this purpose, it is preferable to involve the yoga partner. Depending on the exercise, he places the bowl on your body and lets the bowl sound.
