Better than bing given sheets and being told what to play, I teach you how to create your own so that as you add new bowls to your set, you will fully understand how to use your different bowls with each other to create stunning sound journeys. It is a very easy to follow, step by step process that you can do with no music training at all.

Smooth bowls take more work to produce and are therefore more expensive

@@soundjourneystore ohhh 😦 thank you 🙏 ☺️

I usually use the blue bunny tail mallet for the metal bowls. It is a bit harder and gives a brighter tone while still being soft. soundjourneystore.com/collections/himalayan-tibetan-singing-bowl-accessories/products/bunny-tail-mallet?variant=40483151544409

Hi, I am sorry but I do not buy into specific frequencies for healing. We are hearing all these different frequencies all the time. If a specific hz healed us, then we would all be healed and healthy. I think frequencies is more of a marketing ploy to get people to buy things. Releasing stress can promote healing, so I suggest just find an instrument or sound that helps them destress so that healing can be improved. I am sorry this is not the information you are looking for.

I am glad you liked it. Creating tapping sequences is something we teach you in the course. It changes for everyone depending on your notes. You can find out more about the course at soundjourneystore.thinkific.com

This one was 5.75". It sold two years ago.

The orange is marketed as Citrine and purple as Amethyst. But the truth is almost all gemstones lose their colour when ground into powder and then heated, so the colour is a pigment added to make it look beautiful.

@@soundjourneystore ohhh 😮 thank you ☺️

Yes I do.. Here is the link soundjourneystore.thinkific.com

Yes, the silicone wand is much quieter. Cell phones amplify the sound, like in this video. It is quieter in real life. Also, with the bowls we sell, Ivan takes the bowls into his workshop and sands the edges of the bowl to make them even quieter.

Thanks, I had fun making this series of gongs. It has been a while and I forgot how much joy it is to make them.

Sorry for the late reply. We were on vacation and went unplugged for a bit. Glad you like the video. If you are trying to add to a gong you have, you really need to just listen, or call me and have me offer suggestions. Each gong is unique and brings a special sound to your set. There is no one size that will blend better than another. Just different, if that makes sense. It all depends on what notes you have and what overtones are in the gongs. I would be happy to help out if you give us a call. OR just play your gong with other to see what blend you like best. soundjourneystore.com/collections/all-gongs

@@soundjourneystore thanks for the feedback. I decided to take a 6 hour road trip to my closest gong retailer and picked up an amazing 32" wind (: This video helped inspire me!

@@Pathstobalance I am so happy to hear you got an amazing gong to match your others. Glad I was able to assist.

Hello, @random_native I am sorry to have caused you to feel ofended. I have responded to your comments three times. They are made by a three local indigenous elders in the community. This is a project they are working on. 101deweguns.com Maybe you could reach out to Jackie and Oliver and express your concerns about how they make their drums.

@@soundjourneystore Okay i forgive you guys

@@soundjourneystore How the real Cree drum is made it has holes at the bottom and it's sown with sinew and handle sinew Tell them to watch yoyoyo it's hendo's drum making tutorial it shows how it's really made

Luc makes the most stunning sounding hand pans. Glad you like it!

That is great that you know what you like. It takes time to really learn the different sounds and what can be your preference.

No, suede mallets are very noisy. I am using a silicone wand. It is my favourite. soundjourneystore.com/collections/singing-bowl-mallets-wands-and-bags/products/mallets-and-wands

That is my favourite part. I recently did a performance and it was so nice to have the drum in tune with all my other isntruments.

I know! Just love them too.

A Dark Star gong is a Chau gong with the lathing different, with just the larger outer black and the center all in gold. This gong has the typical lathing of the traditional chau.

You need to use a spectrum analyzer rather than a tuner. There are so many notes. We have an android phone and use the app Spectroid. Then I take the lowest number and convert it to a musical note with their website. www.phys.unsw.edu.au/music/note/

@@soundjourneystore Thank you very much. For a metal bowl, should I tap the bowl or sing it?

@@vibrational.healing I almost never sing a bowl. I tap them with different mallets to bring out all the rich multitude of tones. Singing it isolates just one tone. Do what you like best.

Our pleasure!

You are most welcome.

I am using silicone wands. These are my favourite tools to use. soundjourneystore.com/collections/singing-bowl-mallets-wands-and-bags/products/mallets-and-wands

Glass is made from about 80% quartz crystal silica sand and then other sands. Crystal singing bowls are just quartz crystal silica sand. That is why some wine glassing sing with a wet finger on the rim and others don't. If the bowl sings you know it is a singing bowl

Thank you so much for your response. ❤ I guess there are just different qualities. I sadly bought one from Amazon and the sound is tinny and poor quality. I guess you get what you pay for. 😢

@@micass3561 You are correct about that. I am sorry to hear that you did not get a nice sounding bowl. Wall thickness in relation to the note has a big impact on the sound of the bowl.

You are so kind. I really do love making these videos.

You are welcome

Each unit is hand made by the maker Eric here in Ontario. They are not mass produced in a factory in China which accounts for the price.

Sorry you are having trouble with the email from the site. our email is [email protected]

Glad you liked it. I woke up at 5:30 am with this idea and had to get up at 6 to do it. My mind wouldn't stop thinking about it. Sure, email me and I can help you out. Talk soon [email protected]

🙏🏻 Oh wow!!! I saw the mushrooms on your website (I only found out about your offerings yesterday), and wasn't sure how or what they were 🍄🎶 Being limited to playing bowls and not playing other instruments simultaneously without pre-recording or spotify has been a source of frustration for me. So I love this idea 💡 I will look at the mushrooms again, check currency conversion and shipping (never favourable 😅) and see if I can at least get one to trial. This looks like a sound healing game-changer! Thank you for sharing 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

@@madronhealing They were a game changer for me. I love performing with them. I can do so much more with just me being there. You will love them.

Glad you like the video. It was made in China, where there is a rich history of making bronze gongs. Sadly for you, this gong has been sold.

Hi there, I am sorry, I just saw your comment. Yes you can gook an appointment to hear gongs, but this now is sold. Please check out our listings on our website at www.soundjourneystore.com. The videos will have much better sound quality than trying to listen on zoom, but I would be happy to chat with you for a free consultation to help you find the perfect gong.

Sorry for the late reply, I just noticed you left this comment. The basic 7 is just a marketing ploy to package singing bowls in easy to choose sets, made up in the 1970's. There are 23 notes to choose from, not just 7 notes. Notes do not correlate with chakras. If they did, all elementary school children, their music teachers and anyone listening to them play would be chakra aligned since those are the notes they always play. However, if you do want that 7 note set that you read and hear about, you can hear it here. soundjourneystore.com/apps/bundles/bundle/76658

This is a C tuned at 262 hertz. in the A=440 tuning system

Thank you, I really do enjoy making these videos.
