The Power of Sound...

-
I have recently been enamoured with the sound of Tibetan Singing Bowls and Bells. They are part of an ancient tradition of spiritual rituals utilized in Buddhism.(www.takibyoga.com)
The Bowls are beautifully crafted out of metal (each bowl has its' own unique sound!)with a wooden handle for creating the "singing" sound.
Scientific research has investigated the effect of sound on a body... actually can change molecular structure, as well as harmonize the right and left hemispheres of the brain! (www.healingsounds.com)
Not to mention that sound is beneficial for Meditation, Yoga and Energy Work...bringing a sense of peace and relaxation!
