Singing bowls. Practice of deep relaxation

Singing bowls are a traditional musical and ritual instrument from Tibet. Over the centuries, the lamas have kept the secret of special sound waves that create singing bowls. They, like no other instrument, are able to balance the energy centers of a person and adjust them to the optimal frequencies for life.

What are singing bowls?

Singing bowls¹ are bronze ware made up of seven metals corresponding to planets. At least if the singing cup is made correctly, then its composition will include:

• gold (the Sun),
• silver (moon),
• mercury (Mercury),
• copper (Venus),
• iron (Mars),
• tin (Jupiter) and
• lead (Saturn).

This is a ritual dish, distributed in the Himalayas, in Tibet and other Far Eastern regions.

Why use the singing bowl?

In yoga classes, as well as practicing other practices aimed at self-development, we use singing bowls during relaxation.

When a person did a good job of yoga, typed the necessary energy for life and development, entered the meditative state at the end of the session , then all this should be fixed, fixed in his body. For this, the pestle is rotated around the rim of the singing bowl.

A heavy, deep sound expands the human astral body2 and allows the collected energies to penetrate deeper into the energy layers. And blows with a pestle on the singing bowl give a slightly different effect. They pierce the channels in different bodies and as a result, there is an expansion of perception, sometimes, even in the spiritual aspect.

How to choose a singing cup?

If a person wants to choose a singing bowl in the store of esoteric goods, it is necessary that she likes him visually, tactilely, and most importantly - by sound. In addition, you can bring it to the solar plexus and hit it with a pestle.

The vibration should be pleasant, gracious, but if something is uncomfortably compressed in the body, if the sound and vibration nauseous, then the cup can not be taken - it does not suit you.

How to make a sound massage with singing bowls?

Deep impact, that is, sound massage with singing bowls is done like this: a man lies relaxed on his back - in shavasana3, and the bowl is placed on the solar plexus, or on the stomach.

On it rhythmically beats a pestle, or rotates it, another person. Cool energy channels are cleaned.

But there must be a lot of coordination - the type of the singing bowl, the time of impact, the strength and nature of the blows, the energy of the person who produces the sound. You can put a lot of singing bowls around a person and the session sometimes lasts 2 hours, but this is a very strong impact and it is better that the specialist does it.

Still put singing bowls on other chakras⁴: Sahasraru (sitting), Ajnu (lying), Anahata, Swadhisthana, but this should also be tried very carefully, gradually.
