Mini Chakra Singing Bowl Orange - Sacral

An orange singing bowl, 3.25 inches across, matched to the sacral chakra. Small bowls speak higher and faster than big ones. You get a clear tone that comes up quickly and fades quickly, which makes this a bowl for marking a moment rather than for filling a room with sustain.

The sacral chakra, Svadhisthana, governs creativity, pleasure, appetite and the emotional life that goes with them. Use the bowl when creative work has stalled, or at the start of a session where the point is to feel something rather than to think it through.

How to Play It

Tap the side for a bell tone, or run the striker steadily around the outside rim to build the hum. It takes a few passes before the bowl sings. Even pressure and a slow circle work better than speed, and a small bowl will want a lighter hand than you expect.

Good to Know

3.25 inches in diameter. Metal bowl, struck or rimmed. Every bowl has its own pitch, so two of the same size will not match exactly.

Pair It With

The Solar Plexus bowl in yellow is the next one up the body, and the Flower of Life bowl is the large one with real sustain. Hang the Double Row Chakra Dreamcatcher above the space. More in singing bowls.
