For some reason, I think this may have gotten left out of the conversation. When purchasing a bowl to go with existing bowls, it's a good idea to know what tuning system you're in. There are two tuning systems: 440 Hz or standardized tuning, and 432 Hz. 440Hz is what the orchestras tune and is a good tuning to have if you play with other instruments. These two tuning systems are based on the note a being either for 440 Hz or 432 Hz, and then all of the intervals of that scale are measured in a way to create that tuning. So in purchasing bowls, it's good to know which tuning system you have then if you ever break one or want to add others, you can match it up. My bowls are all in 440 Hz, however, when I broke my A bowl, I decided to move toward 432 Hz. The tuning that you have already or choose to have doesn't really matter, except that what ever tuning you choose, it is nice to keep them tuned all together. Remember you're the healer not the bowls.

This was such a rich class full of so much rich information that I needed to listen to this several times. • Biggest Takeaway #1: This confirms to me that this is a start of a long rich journey and made me feel comfortable with the idea that I do not need to rush to get there but enjoy every moment along the way. At least now I have landmarks to focus on. • Biggest Takeaway #2: The idea of having set lists with overall chord progressions for us to improvise upon helps me a lot. Having a map of the journey with a designated path to follow is definitely anchoring and will make me feel stable, thus making it much easier to get into deeper presence into every moment, kind of like smelling the roses along the hike instead of having the feeling of being lost and not sure where to go. The idea of repetition and small patterns is great and more along the lines of where i came from but in a bliss state I tend to forget what I just played. LOL • Biggest Takeaway #3: There are many more things to consider such as the surroundings around the bowl set up as well as the materials of the objects in the room which I did not expect to think about even though as a pianist I knew that. I played my bowl while placed on the tablecloth and then I played it without it and observed the huge difference so now I know why you suggested ear plugs in a previous session. I love that seat bolster you use. Thank you for sharing your years of experience.

I'm going to be re-creating the about page. This is the page that people look at before they decide to come into the group. When it was a free group, it was easy people just come in. What do I have to lose? It's free however, it is a paid membership currently and I'd love to get your input so that people who are thinking about it know it's the right community for them. If you have a moment, please take a look at the about page and let me know what benefits that I can talk about that. Would assist people to know they're in the right place. I'm not very good at promoting myself and my creative projects. So, if you have some time, I'd be very open to your input! Even if you wrote a couple sentences about what you got out of being here and from the courses to people who are thinking of joining, that would be 🤩.

Have a beautiful rest of your weekend! I am taking tomorrow off and have a lunch date and a movie planned with my beloved Nathaniel. Enjoy your day and lots of love.🥰

Hi all! The Chakra Sound Journey from today's live meeting is now uploaded to the vault, which is located under the classroom tab, at the very bottom - called monthly meetings, vibrations of joy. It’s turquoise with a gold emblem. If you'd like to listen to or watch the recording, it's ready!
