How Come Sounding Bowls open hearts as they do?

Synopsis

Play and listen to Sounding Bowls.
Practice tonal meditations with a Sounding Bowl.
Track the Forms that create the universe from star and tree through
music and experience to plunge deeper into the nature of all existence, of everyday life.

Learn how Sounding Bowls first came into existence, how each one is fashioned by hand from local trees, understand the sacred geometry of "Phi",
the basis of living forms. Discover how work can become a meditation, leading higher aims into Being around us.

The workshop will operate on and unravel some of the four levels of being through which we can experience some of the magic that has made Sounding Bowls an international phenomenon in music therapy and sound healing.

The workshop will include group movement patterns to enable an inner experience of the spiritual forces that flow into and through Sounding Bowls during the making and playing.

Two complete tonal (sound) meditations will be practiced during the day.
Notes on these and other exercises will be available as part of the day.

Host a Workshop for your group

Tobias offers workshops on Sounding Bowls running from two hours up to one day.

The aim of the workshops is to be transformational above being informational. To assist in the opening of the heart and the empowering of individual direction by giving you a direct and inner experience of the spiritual forces that flow through a Sounding Bowl. Depending on time allotted subjects covered in practical, experiential mode will include: Sacred geometry, intimate sound, successful transformation through ‘failure’, giving and receiving, Love and Fear, thus leading participants through several heart opening moments.

The process of the workshops includes hearing and playing a variety of Sounding Bowls, individual and group movement, as well as times of listening including individual and group experiences of the sounds of various Sounding Bowls and descriptions of the development and making of Sounding Bowls.

Duration is flexible from about 2 hours to a full day.

‘I had a very enjoyable, informative, moving, and deeply satisfying day at Tobias' workshop. I loved the experiential nature of it, the many chances to play the wonderful sounding bowls , to move, speak and draw, and Tobias sharing of his knowledge and experience. I left feeling uplifted and inspired to discover more.’

‘I was incredibly moved by your sounding bowl workshop. Your bowls are true works of art and when plucked they each produce such wonderful travelling vibrations to the touch, I found the sounds of each bowl unique as if they all had their own song to sing. What struck a cord with me more was your own teaching style, the knowledge you shared of mother earth and all upon her being one living breathing source of energy was enlightening to hear and the subtle deliverance of the universal connection between all things was very moving, it is this oneness that I am becoming more and more conscious of and I could listen to you talk of this all day, I even wished I had recorded the workshop ;-) It was clear to me the passion you have for your bowls and the respect you have for the materials you work with, I truly felt as if you honour each unique piece of wood that comes your way. I feel the love and intention you channel into your work highly contributes to the wonderful sounds created by your bowls. I wish you blessings as you continue to shine your own light.’
