Product Description
This 16 cm steel tongue drum wears a fresh, natural green with a clean gold om motif, balancing energy and calm.
What is it for?
Green is the colour of the heart chakra and of nature, making this model excellent for heart-centred meditation and practices of love and acceptance. Ho'oponopono and loving-kindness sessions benefit from its soft, forgiving mood. As background music during houseplant care it is lovely — some swear their plants grow faster with it nearby. In therapeutic settings, especially grief counselling or relationship work, the green mood supports opening up.
How to play it
Sit on a cushion, place the drum in your lap so the base can vibrate freely. With the included rubber-tipped mallets start slowly on a single tongue, then gradually expand the play. During green chakra practice, speak inner words of love while striking each tongue — the sound helps the intention settle deeper. For evening unwinding play softly for 5-10 minutes, the sound relaxing the body too.
Who is it for?
Love-centred practitioners working with the heart chakra. Therapists and coaches wanting a gentle, supportive atmosphere in their consulting room. Mums planning shared music time with their children. Perfect both as a decorative and functional instrument in plant-loving homes.
Care and storage
Green paint — especially lighter shades — can fade in strong sunlight, so do not leave the drum on a south-facing windowsill. A dry cotton cloth is enough for cleaning, occasionally a barely damp microfibre. Never use abrasive cleaners. Store in a dry, cool room, e.g. inside a cabinet with stable humidity. Check the surface every few months for scratches and replace padding if needed.
Style and mood
Green is the colour of the heart, of plants, of renewal. This drum brings a small forest edge into the home, where the mind can rest. Not attention-grabbing, not loud, more a quiet companion who speaks when called. Especially recommended for those seeking a sanctuary amid busy life, not yet another stimulus. The pentatonic scale echoes nature's rhythms, wind, water, birds translated into the language of metal tongues, bringing a connection to nature throughout the day.
Fun fact: green is the easiest colour for the human eye to process, which is why it feels restful even for tired eyes. This is an instrument whose very appearance restores.
