What the seven-chakra singing bowl set contains
This set comprises seven bowls of different sizes: every single piece produces a different base note and is shaped with a different surface colour. The smallest piece gives a soft, higher chime while the largest one produces a deep, full vibration. The set also includes seven strikers, so you can work with several bowls at once or play them one after another. The complete set arrives in a presentation box that also helps with storage.
The seven colours and the chakras in plain language
In traditional Indian thought the seven chakras represent energy centres along the body. Each one is associated with a colour and a pitch: red at the base, violet at the crown. For you this means the colour and order of the seven bowls give you a natural guide for how to move through a practice — no prior knowledge is needed, you only follow the sequence.
Playing the set in order at home
The simplest practice starts with the red bowl. Place it in front of you and slowly circle its rim with the striker. When the note becomes clear, move on to the orange bowl, then the yellow one, and so on all the way to the violet piece. Stay with each bowl for six to ten seconds before stepping to the next. For you the full set takes six to seven minutes — exactly what fits in a short afternoon break.
A full-body chakra sound bath practice
For a full chakra sound bath, lie on a soft mat. Place the seven bowls along the body: the red one next to your feet, the violet one above your head. Another person plays each bowl slowly, in sequence, and the sound flows through the body. In most sessions you feel tension gradually leave your limbs. This practice also works for couples or in group sessions, and many yoga studios use it as a closing half-hour.
Storage, cleaning and accessories of the set
Return the bowls to the presentation box in order, together with the matching strikers. After use wipe each piece with a soft cloth. Store the box in a dry place and avoid direct sunlight. If any surface becomes dull, lukewarm water and a soft textile will refresh it. With this care your set will preserve the purity of the seven colours and the distinctive base notes of every single bowl for many years.
