Tibetan Singing Bowls are ancient musical instruments that have been used for meditation, healing, and spiritual practices for thousands of years. Each bowl produces a rich blend of harmonious sounds and vibrations when played, creating a deeply relaxing and therapeutic experience. They're excellent tools for meditation, helping achieve deep relaxation, mental clarity, stress reduction, enhanced focus, and emotional balance.

Singing bowls work through the principle of vibration and sound healing. When struck or rimmed with a mallet, the bowl produces sound waves that create vibrations. These vibrations can help promote relaxation, reduce stress, and facilitate meditation by influencing our brainwave patterns and physical body.

While many sellers offer brass bowls and other metal variations, we primarily specialize in traditional bronze singing bowls. Bronze bowls are known for their superior resonance and authentic sound quality.

Our pricing reflects our rigorous selection process and commitment to exceptional quality. We deliberately pay premium prices to our Himalayan artisans and collectors to secure first access to the finest bowls available.

This higher investment ensures we can consistently obtain the highest quality pieces before they're offered elsewhere. We carefully evaluate each piece, selecting only those that meet our strict standards for harmonic balance and craftsmanship. This meticulous process means we choose less than 5% of the bowls we examine.

The difference between a harmonically balanced bowl and an average one is significant. A perfectly tuned bowl creates pure, therapeutic vibrations that enhance meditation and healing practices. We believe this superior quality and harmonic precision is worth the investment for Sound practitioners as well as individuals seeking the best possible experience with their sound healing journey.

You're in the right place! We provide the highest quality sound samples of our bowls, and we don't hide our quality behind poor recording devices. This allows you to truly experience the unique voice of each bowl before making your choice.

Choosing your perfect singing bowl is a deeply personal journey. We recommend finding a quiet moment, using good headphones, and letting yourself be guided by the sounds that resonate most deeply with you. Each bowl has its own unique voice, and you'll often find that certain tones naturally draw you in – these are usually the ones that align best with your energy and intentions.

Take your time exploring different bowls, notice how each sound makes you feel, and trust your intuition. Sometimes it's the unexpected choice that creates the strongest connection. When you find the right bowl, you'll know – it's like meeting an old friend.

Our customers often tell us they found their perfect match simply by closing their eyes and letting the bowl's sound guide them. Remember, there's no wrong choice – only the choice that feels right for you.

Every singing bowl we sell comes complete with all essential accessories at no extra cost. Your purchase includes our signature ZenHold cushion and ZenGrip Pad, which feature innovative Anti-slip & Anti-Buzz technology for optimal stability and pure sound production.

You'll also receive a professional mallet set that is shown in the product images of the specific singing bowl or singing bowl set you choose.

Additionally, we include a comprehensive printed User's Guide with detailed playing instructions and helpful tips. To enhance your experience, you'll get free access to our downloadable AuraBowls Sound Bath collection, perfect for meditation, sleep, and relaxation sessions.

There are two primary methods to play your singing bowl:

The Striking Method (for deeper Fundamental tones):

1. Hold the bowl on your palm (fingertips for bowls under 4 inches)

2. Gently strike the outside rim with the padded part of the mallet using a slight upward motion

3. Adjust striking force to control volume

Note: Never strike with the wooden part of the mallet to avoid damage.

'Around the Rim' Method (for the "singing" effect):

1. Hold the bowl as described above

2. Hold the mallet with fingertips pointing down, touching the wood

3. Apply even pressure while rubbing the mallet clockwise around the rim

4. Use a full arm movement (not wrist) and maintain steady pressure

For detailed instructions with visual demonstrations, visit our complete [Playing Guide] on our website.

The main thing to be mindful of is avoiding drops, especially on the top rim, as this could affect the bowl's shape. While general wear is natural - and even adds character (think of them as future antiques!) - protecting the rim helps maintain the bowl's beautiful sound.

For cleaning, just avoid using abrasive materials. A soft cloth or the soft side of a sponge works perfectly for occasional cleaning, and a little lemon water can help if needed. These bowls are incredibly durable and will last for generations, so don't worry too much about day-to-day maintenance. They're made to be used and enjoyed!

Even though it might not be shown in the product's listing images, our new Tibetan Singing Bowls all feature the AuraBowls logo, which serves as our mark of authenticity and quality. This distinctive marking helps you identify the exceptional craftsmanship and careful selection that goes into each singing bowl we offer.

For our antique singing bowls, we preserve their original condition without adding our logo. Many of these pieces feature original artisan markings that are part of their historical character and beauty. We believe these authentic elements should be preserved rather than altered.
