Shrestha first learned about Tibetan healing practices in his home country of Nepal and now makes it his mission to share this knowledge with the Western world.
His book, How to Heal with Singing Bowls, details the history of singing bowls, what to look for when purchasing one, and how to play the bowls for use as a healing modality for oneself and for others. The volume includes an explanation of vibrational healing and how to use singing bowls to balance the chakras and relieve stress, depression, anger, arthritis, high blood pressure, and aggression. Also included are sections on how to use singing bells and tingsha chimes, as well as how to augment singing bowl healing with crystals.
A CD of singing bowl music for three different therapies—relaxation, chakra balancing, and sound meditation—is included. Funds from the sale of this book will go toward building an orphanage in Shrestha’s native Nepal.
How to Heal with Singing Bowls would be a perfect addition to a singing bowl display.
