SINGING BOWL MEDITATION
Singing Bowl Meditation is a peaceful practice that uses the gentle tones and vibrations of traditional singing bowls to encourage relaxation, stillness, and mindful awareness. As the bowls are struck or gently played, their resonant sounds create an atmosphere that can help quiet the mind and allow the body to settle into a more relaxed state.
My approach to Singing Bowl Meditation draws upon more than 50 years of study, teaching, and practice in Taoism, Qi Gong, and meditation. As founder of The School of Tao Chi and author of Mystical World: A Collection of Spiritual Poetry, I have spent many years exploring the relationship between sound, meditation, awareness, and inner balance. During a Singing Bowl Meditation session, participants simply sit or lie comfortably, close their eyes, relax, and allow the sounds and vibrations of the bowls to become part of their meditation experience.
MEDITATION SESSIONS
Meditation is a practice of quieting the mind, becoming more aware of the present moment, and allowing ourselves time to simply be still. Through gentle attention to breathing, sound, movement, or a single point of focus, meditation can create an opportunity for greater calm, awareness, and reflection.
There are many forms of meditation, and no single approach is right for everyone. Some practices emphasize stillness and relaxation, while others encourage greater concentration, self-awareness, or spiritual reflection.
In my meditation sessions, I encourage each person to explore the practice at their own pace. Drawing upon more than 50 years of study and teaching in Taoism, Tai Chi, Qi Gong, and meditation, I offer a supportive environment where students can develop a practice that feels comfortable and meaningful to them.
