Forge Your Own Singing Bowl

The Workshop
​


Working predominantly in brass and bronze,you will scribe and cut the metal, working closely with the fire and all of the elements to sink and shape a finely crafted sounding vessel; an instrument that will outlast many generations to come. Instruction in the use of the tools and one to one support will be available throughout the workshop.

You will be guided not only in the physical, but also in the metaphysical implications of making a singing bowl. Modern science has come full circle to rediscover the wisdom of the ages - all matter is in essence, pure vibration, and that intention colours form. Throughout the workshop we will co-create and hold a focused space in order to bring forth your instrument. This act of bringing consciousness to how we perceive and experience sound, and our developing sensitivity to resonance, will underpin all that we do.

There are no pre-requisites.
Contact us if in any doubt about skill set or fitness.
The workshop is open to all ages from 14 and up.

We also create bespoke workshops. These are geared towards groups who are working in or with a specific project eg a group of yoga practitioners, those who are training in  hospice work. This work is small group oriented and can provide immeasurable growth and expansion in all areas of family, group or community work, through the shared experience of conscious transformation assisted and facilitated through soundcraft.

We welcome approaches from those who are inspired to have our facilitation in this regard. 

 
"The possibility of making your own healing instrument is rare. The experience of forging with your own hands is transformational in itself.  The instruments that result are exceptional. Book this course, bring your soul-spirit into your hands."
Tobias Kaye,
Director of Sounding Bowls – Tuning the Circle

​
These workshops are about so much more than making a singing bowl:  the bowl making process is held in a vibrational field which encourages self-reflection leading to self-knowledge and insight, recognition and potential release of blockages to the free flow of energy whether mental, emotional, physical or spiritual: Gabriella and Heather are always there to facilitate these healing  and clearing times.

Gabriella and Heather create real  magic through sound and their alignment with the subtle worlds. This is work which is at the heart of what Findhorn is  about and I can wholeheartedly recommend their projects to anyone! Come and join!

​It felt enormous, in the inner world, provoked by the sound. However, I am very very grateful to be able to touch this pain so deeply, to bring it to the light for the healing of all.

I still cannot come over it... I play it often and in the least likely places around the office... Today a friend told me it sounds so "balanced" and "whole" that I even shed a tear for her sensitive ears. :-) Another one simply knelt in front of me and kissed my hands. I am so touched myself by the 3-day experience, the result and by the reactions of these two people today that my wings are flapping strong and carrying me 10 cm above ground. :-) THANK YOU!" Andrea Erdei, Brussels, Belgium
