The Singing Bowls, also called Tibetan Bowls, are originally from Asia, mainly from Japan, China, Thailand and the Himalayan region.

It is to be presumed that there have been sound bowls since Man began to work metal (approx. from 4000 BC), these instruments are produced manually and originate from the BonPo (pre-Buddhist) shamanic culture of the Himalayas, dating back to the Bronze Age and are manufactured with different metals, including gold, silver, copper, mercury, iron, tin and lead, among others.

Nowadays, and from east to west, this incredible ancestral object and its sound have become an excellent instrument for meditation, energy rebalancing, relaxation and purification.

To clear spaces, we can start playing the bowl at the front door and then make a circuit throughout the entire space, in all its rooms.

Starting with doors, windows, corners and mirrors where energy tends to stagnate, then objects and areas that you feel that are more in need.

This can also be improved with the practice of Feng Shui, where we can play a singing bowl where the energy of the Metal Element is beneficial, from the point of view of the sector (Bagua method) or even advanced calculations (Flying stars method).

In general, Feng Shui is the study of energy flow and how everything is connected within spaces, so for this ancient art, every object also carries a vibration, which connects us in a different way.

Obviously, because each of us is different and we vibrate with different types of energy, what might be great for you might not be so great for someone else.

In this way, when we look at certain objects in any space, we could pay more attention to what vibration we are receiving from it and observe which elements are present.

Therefore, objects can be characterized by material, color, shape, symbolism, which are also associated with the 5 elements or transformations of Chinese metaphysics (Fire, Earth, Metal, Water, Tree).

Look around your home and workspaces, try analyzing the objects around you by asking these questions:

• what kind of material is this?
• Is this color good?
• are there any odd or pointy shapes?
• what is its meaning or use?

Observation is key to the practice of Feng Shui, and sometimes just doing this exercise can help to unblock stagnant and negative vibrations, bringing more positive energy to flow throughout the space.

Rituals are part of human existence and this behavior has very deep origins in all of humanity.

However, tracing these origins is not easy, as rituals often leave little or even no physical traces for archaeologists to find.

So far, the best evidence of ancient rituals is the deliberate burial of loved ones. The oldest example is found on Mount Carmel in Israel, where about 130,000 years ago a Neanderthal woman was buried by her community.

Some of the most common ritual practices are to clean and purify not only ourselves and others, but also our spaces, renewing energy and focusing on a smooth and harmonious environment for us to live in.

Therefore, when embracing the practice of Feng Shui within spaces, the first thing we must take into account is that there are no perfect homes, but all the attention and work dedicated to it will pay off, so the rituals are certainly a wonderful example of how cleaning and energizing the vibration of any environment is a great way to improve the overall energy.

For the practice of Feng Shui, the room where we sleep is one of the most important rooms in terms of our well-being and harmony.

All living beings absorb energy (Chi) while they sleep, which means that in the space where we rest, the quality of that environment will naturally influence our sleep and our health.

A room full of trash, dirt and dark, gaudy colors will contaminate the overall energy of any space, which in turn will affect its inhabitants.

A hotel room usually invites a good night’s sleep even if it’s just for a few days, a clean environment with white sheets and soft colors makes a difference, especially when we’re away from home and many of us might even feel out of place.

So why not transform the bedroom with a touch of hotel vibe, as if we were going to receive someone important to us, but in this case the guest is really you, the most important person in your life.

Depending on if you’re working from home or in an office, there are some important details that can help you boost your business.

Watch closely how the energy flows in that space, is it too fast with rush of air or too slow with obstacles on the way?

Also, orientation and location are both relevant information about your main furniture like your desk or the cash register.

For achieving your goals, orientation is more determinant because it works with the eyesight direction.

For these matters, checking one of your best directions could be great for best results, like for example a Metal element person could be facing West or Northwest.

For an even better harmonization, use materials and decor details that work well with your essence, this way you are making this space the perfect environment for you and your professional goals.
