Frequently asked questions
Here are some common questions about this bowl.
Dragon's blood is a deep red resin secreted by trees in the Dracaena and Daemonorops genera when their bark is wounded—a natural boundary response that seals and protects. Infused into quartz crystal during Divine Bowls' proprietary molding process, its molecular structure becomes part of what vibrates. The resin's ancient role as a protective seal translates into sound that helps practitioners and individuals restore energetic boundaries, call scattered energy home, and speak truth from grounded presence rather than vulnerability.
Dragon's blood offers active, alert protection rather than passive shielding. Unlike black tourmaline's absorptive containment or obsidian's reflective defense, dragon's blood works through restoration—helping you gather what's yours back into your body. The 402 Hz throat frequency adds a unique dimension: this isn't protection that silences you, but boundaries that give you stable ground to stand on while you speak. Athletes use it for pre-competition centering; therapists use it to seal off between clients; anyone recovering from overgiving uses it to remember where they end and the world begins.
This bowl serves anyone who needs to hold their center while engaging with intensity—executives before difficult negotiations, first responders decompressing after high-stress shifts, parents transitioning from caretaking mode to personal time, and therapists who absorb client energy. The throat chakra frequency supports clear communication, while dragon's blood's protective quality ensures you're speaking from your own truth rather than reactive defense. It's equally valuable for athletes preparing for competition (contained readiness) and sound healers supporting clients through burnout recovery (boundary restoration). The bowl doesn't require spiritual practice—just the need to feel unshakeable.
Dragon's blood directly addresses the scattered, overextended state of burnout by supporting boundary restoration and embodied presence. When you've given too much, let too much in, or forgotten where your energy ends and others' demands begin, this resin's ancient work of sealing and protecting continues in sound form. The 402 Hz frequency resonates through your torso and core—the physical territory where boundaries are felt—while the infused resin helps you call your energy back into your own skin. Practitioners report using it after intense client sessions, parents play it post-bedtime chaos, and anyone recovering from overgiving reaches for it when they need to remember: this body is mine.
This bowl's fixed frequency of 402 Hz harmonizes with instruments tuned to either standard. Using A=440 as reference, it plays G+43 cents; using A=432 as reference, the same frequency is G#-24 cents. The bowl is categorized as Uplift Tuning—frequencies above C=528 that produce brighter, more energizing tones. For dragon's blood specifically, this uplift quality adds activation to the resin's grounding protection: not passive defense, but vital, alert presence. The combination supports pre-performance centering, boundary work that doesn't sedate, and speaking truth from a place of contained readiness rather than vulnerable openness.
Dragon's blood infusion is permanent—integrated at the molecular level during formation, not applied as a surface coating. The bowl is fully waterproof, temperature-stable, and sunlight-safe. Clean with water and mild soap; the resin's protective properties won't fade or wash away. The seamless one-piece construction (no welds, no weak points) makes these bowls exceptionally durable—built to last lifetimes of use. Because dragon's blood's essence is woven into the quartz itself during the 3,000°F+ molding process, the bowl's protective resonance remains constant regardless of external conditions. Store on the included silicone O-ring to prevent surface scratches when not in use.
