Brand : AMSUNBO Size : 10 inch/ 25cm The Power of Crystal Singing Bowls “Quartz is a vibrational transmitter” Wilson says. “We’re water. We are a perfect receptor for this kind of information.” Consider how running your finger around the edge of a crystal glass full of water makes it ring and the water itself shift. Because we are about 65–70% water, we react to the sound of the crystal bowls similarly, as their vibration penetrates into us. How to Play Quartz Crystal Singing Bowls Place the AMSUNBO crystal singing bowl symmetrically on its rubber o ring. Run the suede or ball stick around the outside (not inside) of the rim gently, evenly and with a firm pressure and the bowl will start to resonate. If you are producing jarring or rough tones you are moving the stick too quickly or using incorrect pressure against the rim. Excessive force or speed will produce unpleasant sounds . Golden Rules for Playing Bowls ♪ Never play the bowl with excessive force ♪ Play on the outside of the rim and not on the inside. Playing on the inside appears to increase the stress placed on the singing bowl. ♪ Because shattering is a possibility never place your head in the singing bowl when it is resonating or place the bowl on top of someone when playing. ♪ Playing the singing bowl in an anti-clockwise fashion brings in the feminine energy. It is best for you and anyone in the proximity of the bowl if you don't play it for longer than 15 - 20 minutes at a stretch. A 15 minute break is recommended to ensure that the energy field is not overloaded and everyone has a chance to assimilate the changes.
