I downloaded some Tibetan Singing Bowl music from iTunes and used it for Savasana in this week’s classes. I highly recommend giving it a try.

I’ve read stuff about chakra CDs and the like and they say using certain tones can help certain chakras open. The idea is that the sound waves actually absorb into your body and can rearrange your molecules. I put that on my I’ll-have-to-try-that-cause-I’m-not-buying-it-until-I-experience-it-myself list.

But I noticed as we were listening to the singing bowls that I could feel the tones. So I had the class do a couple 3 part breaths and fully relax with each exhale. I got them to focus on their bodies and be open to any sensations they could notice. I asked them to lay as still as possible and notice if they feel the sound waves in their body.

Afterwards they said they could feel the sound. I don’t know if anyone’s molecules were rearranged, but they sure seemed relaxed. It’s worth trying, they’re beautiful.
