Help your kids develop a mindfulness practice. Cultivate the habit of connecting with calmness and inner peace through the use of the singing bowls.
We cannot avoid technology and the hyper connectivity that comes with it. Our young generation is constantly bombarded and distracted by all sorts of information from their devices. The mind is never well rested. It takes conscious efforts to take a break from the constant stream of feeds.
Through running the shop, The Singing Bowl Gallery, we’ve seen customers introducing singing bowls to their children. More and more parents are aware of the need to find a way to help their kids calm the mind and get into balance.
This workshop is child-friendly. It is a great opportunity for parents and kids to bond in peace and harmony. We’ll start this workshop with a 20mins Singing Bowl Meditation/Sound Bath. All participants will feel the resonance happening in the body and the minds turning inwards to connect with the inner-self. Followed by a short sharing and Q&A session, we’ll then proceed to learn how to produce beautiful sounds with the singing bowls by tapping and ringing. At the end of the session, all parents and kids will be able to play the singing bowls. In addition, parents will be taught how to guide and support the kids to maintain the practice, helping the kids to develop better concentration and connection to calmness.
Singing Bowl is a handmade metal bowl. It produces sound and overtones when being tapped and rubbed with a wooden playing stick. Through resonance, the sounds and vibrations bring us to a state of peace and calmness effortlessly. It is non-religious and simple to use. It doesn’t involve any believes and complicated steps.
Christina Shiu, founder of The Singing Bowl Gallery, has been successful in coaching adults and very young kids to play the singing bowls through her monthly workshops in the last 2 years. Besides actively promoting singing bowl as a tool to practice mindfulness through hosting regular meditation and therapy sessions at The Singing Bowl Gallery, she also conducts workshops for corporate and private groups.
