A singing bowl is a type of bell that produces a deep, resonant sound when struck or played with a mallet. Traditionally made from a mix of metals (such as copper, tin, and bronze), these bowls are commonly used in meditation, sound healing, and spiritual practices. When a mallet is rubbed around the rim, the bowl vibrates, creating a soothing, harmonic tone believed to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and balance energy. Singing bowls are often associated with Tibetan Buddhism but are widely used in wellness practices worldwide.
