Notes and Chakras? Spiritual fraud with the best intentions 2024

Notes and Chakras? Spiritual fraud with the best intentions 2024

There are many "authorities" in sound healing community and some of them are misleading the subject by spreading unreliable teachings about the notes and chakras. I know that some of these teachers were misled themselves and they strongly believe that there is nothing wrong with the knowledge they teach. They have the best intentions, projecting so much love and care, but yet, if you choose to blindly follow the path they offer, will you discover the truth?  

Unfortunately, there are also fake gurus and I will allow myself to say BE AWARE OF THE SPIRITUAL FRAUD!

Singing bowl playing instructions

Singing bowl playing instructions

If you start hearing a rattling sound, slow down and apply more pressure. The mallet loosely vibrating against the metal (jumping on-and-off) causes that rattling sound. It takes a little pressure to maintain even friction with the metal as it vibrates back and forth. The rattle is usually heard in the same area when playing the rim of the singing bowl. It happens because the pressure in that area is a little loose. The vibration can not be built up to a constant (steady) intensity if the singing bowl is rumbling.

The Benefits of Himalayan Singing Bowls

The Benefits of Himalayan Singing Bowls

Singing bowls could be brought to hospitals and rehabilitation centers. For more than four years now I've been bringing sound therapy to a nursing home and rehabilitation center in Manhattan. Although I introduced myself as a musician – and that's how I was hired – the management is calling my program “sound healing”. Most likely I would not have been hired if I called myself a sound healer. My agenda was to bring the art of conscious listening and sound meditation to the elders. I knew, however, that the sound healing modality had no support or even recognition

10 Best Practices for Optimal Sound Healing

Oftentimes sound healing or sound bath participants feel overwhelmed and uncomfortable by sounds that may be unintended by the sound practitioner, thus resulting in a participant’s aversion to continuing with further sessions.  Without the right tools and playing techniques, singing bowls can emit unwanted buzzing, loud or piercing pitches, or even harsh percussive sounds.

The Seven Metals Singing Bowl Myth

The Seven Metals Singing Bowl Myth

A common misconception is that Himalayan singing bowls are made from a special "sacred seven metal" alloy.

This is a false myth that has been perpetuated over the internet. Many people believe the seven metal myths. However, there is no truth to it. Singing bowls were never made from seven metals. In testing hundreds of bowls, we have never found the mythical seven metals. We have found only bell metal bronze or the cheap brass alternative.

Healing Resonance and healing frequencies

Healing Resonance and healing frequencies

One of the most important aspects to understand, when working in the field of sound healing or just using sound for self benefits is; what is resonance. People talk about the healing vibrations and healing frequencies. There are many claims made in the sound wellness community about the specific sound frequencies that kill cancer cells and frequencies that heal and repair DNA. There are claims about 432Hz creating the resonance of healing of the planet Earth... Claims about 528Hz is a frequency of love that creates resonance of DNA and therefore, is a DNA repairing frequency...

The Danger Of Sound Baths Gongs And Singing Bowls

The Danger Of Sound Baths Gongs And Singing Bowls

In this article, I would like to talk about striking the singing bowls. I will make it really concise! 

Please don't use the singing bowl as a marching drum! The singing bowl is a very delicate instrument. It's fragile and requires a lot of respect! A good quality singing bowl will sound as soon as you rest the mallet against its wall. If you want to experience the whole range of overtones, simply use a firmer mallet and gently tap your instrument with it.

Best Singing Bowls For The Crown Chakra?

Best Singing Bowls For The Crown Chakra?

It's very common to see sound healing practitioners using three singing bowls set placed around the head area. Left, right and crown. This is called A HEADSET. 

Does it have something to do with the Third Eye Chakra and the Crown Chakra? The answer is -  maybe, but there is something else, that is more obvious than the speculative assumptions that it is somewhat good for chakras.
