Hi! I really enjoyed your video and your in-depth explanation of the different ways to play the bowl. We always had two around the house as kids, and were encouraged to play them to calm us down and it always worked. I don't know if you've ever come across this- but the larger of the two bowls we had had a handle...hammer... whatever you want to call it, that had a strip of soft fabric around a part of it- I think it was a chamois leather or suede or something similar. This meant that when you did that lovely circular build-up of sound you demonstrated, you didn't get any of the rougher sound from the friction of the wood against the metal, and it was all the soft ringing sound of the vibration of the bowl - absolutely delicious!

Looking forward to your guided meditations.
