What is a Tibetan Singing Bowl? (Himalayan Singing Bowl NZ)

An ancient, hand-crafted metal bowl.
You strike or rim-play it to create a warm, resonant tone.
That tone helps many people relax, focus, and meditate.

Made from: traditional alloy blends (often copper, tin + trace metals).
Origin: Nepal/Tibet region; ours are handmade in Nepal.


How a singing bowl works (the quick science)

  • Strike or circle the rim → the bowl vibrates.

  • Vibration = fundamental note + harmonic overtones.

  • Your body hears it and gently feels it.

  • Many notice quieter thoughts and slower breathing.

Two techniques

  • Strike: light tap on the outer rim → clear chime.

  • Rim-play (“sing”): slow, even pressure around the rim → sustained tone.


Benefits people look for (wellness, not medicine)

  • Deep relaxation & stress relief — a quick reset between tasks.

  • Meditation & mindfulness — easy anchor for attention.

  • Yoga class cues — open/close, breath pacing.

  • Sleep wind-down — calm tone before bed.

  • Space ambiance — soft sound that makes a room feel intentional.

I keep claims realistic: bowls may support relaxation and focus.
They don’t diagnose, treat, or cure conditions.


How to play (30-second start)

One clear strike

  1. Bowl on cushion or palm.

  2. Hold the mallet near the top third.

  3. Gentle tap on rim.

  4. Let the note bloom.

Rim-play

  1. Rest on a cushion.

  2. Slow circle along rim with light, constant pressure.

  3. When the tone “catches,” ease pressure slightly.


Which size should I choose? (A quick NZ buyer’s guide)

  • Small (≈8.5-10.5 cm): desks, travel, single chimes.

  • Medium (≈11.5 cm): home meditation, fuller tone, easier rim-play.

  • Large (≈12.5 cm+): sound baths, room-filling resonance.

Tip: medium bowls are the sweet spot for first-time buyers.


Story 

A yoga teacher in Auckland told me her old bowl sounded sharp.
We tried a 12.5cm Nepal bowl. First rim-play, she smiled:
“That’s the sound — warm, steady, not piercing.”
A right bowl = a calmer room, smoother classes.


Care & safety

  • Wipe with a soft dry cloth.

  • Avoid harsh cleaners and long moisture exposure.

  • Gentle use only; keep away from small children and pets.

FAQs — Tibetan Singing Bowl NZ

Is every bowl hand-hammered?
Yes. Expect unique hammer marks and character.

Beginner friendly?
Totally. Start with one strike; add rim-play once comfortable.

What size for a small studio?
8.5-12.5 cm is versatile for classes and home practice.

Can I pair with essential oils?
Yes, for the room, not on the bowl. Diffuse Frankincense or Lavender nearby.

Does metal type matter?
Traditional multi-metal alloys deliver stable, musical overtones.

Maybe I’m doing it wrong?

I can’t seem to make my bowl sound nice. I have watched videos on how to make this bowl make noise and sound nice but I can’t seem to do it. I am feeling disappointed with my purchase at this stage but happy to have feedback on how to get it working.
