This Pure Epsom crystal singing bowl sounds in A at 218 Hz, resonating with the Third Eye chakra and the deep body—pelvis, hips, and foundational connection to earth. Pure Epsom salt supports nervous system regulation, muscle release, and grounded presence. When the mineral that taught four centuries of bathers how to let go meets a frequency associated with intuition and inner vision, the result is clarity that descends through the body rather than floating above it.

ESSENCE

I am the bitter spring that refused the cow, the white crust left behind when water remembers what it carried. When you've been scattered across a thousand obligations, when your nervous system hums like an overtightened wire, I am the substance that says: come home to your body. This bowl holds pure epsom salt crystallized within quartz walls—an invitation to dissolve what you've been gripping and settle into your own bones.

THE ELEMENT

Epsom salt is pure magnesium sulfate, a mineral compound first discovered in the natural springs of Epsom, England in 1618. Farmer Henry Wicker noticed his cows refused the bitter well water—yet that same water soothed his skin and eased his aches. By the mid-17th century, pilgrims traveled across Europe to bathe in these mineral springs, seeking the relief that comes when the body finally softens.

The mineral crystallizes in orthorhombic structures, soft enough to dissolve between your fingers, holding seven molecules of water in each lattice—a geometry of dissolution and renewal. When epsom salt is infused into quartz crystal through Divine Bowls' proprietary process, its molecular structure becomes part of what vibrates. This isn't a coating applied afterward; the mineral integrates at the molecular level during formation, creating a microstructure that produces resonance patterns unique to this bowl. People often describe the tone as "heavier" or "more anchored" than clear quartz alone.

Magnesium supports over three hundred enzymatic reactions in the body, including those governing muscle relaxation and nervous system regulation. Traditional uses span from Victorian spa soaks to modern athletic recovery baths. In sound healing contexts, practitioners pair epsom-infused bowls with grounding work—sessions designed to help people return to their bodies after periods of stress, overwork, or emotional overwhelm. The mineral's signature is release without force: softening rather than striving, soaking rather than solving.

THE FREQUENCY

This bowl sounds in A at 218 Hz, resonating with the Third Eye chakra in the Western diatonic system. The A frequency carries the energetic quality of intuition, wisdom, and inner vision—the capacity to see clearly beyond surface appearances. This vibration moves through the deep body: pelvis, hips, sitting bones, and the foundational structures that connect you to the earth.

When epsom salt's grounding, dissolving nature meets a frequency associated with insight, something interesting happens. Rather than the Third Eye floating upward into abstraction, this bowl anchors vision in the body. Intuition becomes embodied. People often report feeling simultaneously more present and more perceptive—as if clarity descended through them rather than pulling them out of themselves.

THE TUNING

This bowl resonates at 218 Hz. Using A=432 as reference, it plays A+16. Using A=440 as reference, this same frequency is A-14.

This bowl is categorized in the A=432 tuning because its frequency aligns with instruments tuned to A=432 Hz—often called "Verdi tuning" or "natural tuning." Many people find A=432 produces a warmer, more organic quality that feels easier on the nervous system. If you have instruments tuned to A=432, or simply prefer this earth-connected sound, this bowl will harmonize beautifully with them.

(For fine adjustment, adding water to the bowl lowers the pitch slightly—a technique some use to dial in precise intervals when playing with other instruments.)

THE SIZE

At 10 inches, this bowl produces Octave 3 tones with very long sustain—meaning a single strike continues singing for extended periods, allowing the sound to settle deeply into the body and space. The deep, penetrating volume fills large rooms easily, making it ideal for group settings, ceremonial work, or any space where sound needs to reach and hold many people.

This size allows epsom salt's dissolving quality to express with full weight and authority. The low Octave 3 resonance naturally targets the deep body—pelvis, hips, and foundational structures—while the extended sustain gives the nervous system time to respond. Whether placed in a yoga studio, therapy room, living room, or conference space before a team meeting, this bowl commands attention without demanding it.

WORKING WITH THIS BOWL

Reach for this bowl when your body has been holding too much for too long. After workouts that left muscles knotted. During sleepless nights when tension feels permanent. Before difficult conversations when you need to arrive grounded. At the end of a workday when you're still carrying the morning's stress in your shoulders.

To begin, simply strike or rim the bowl and breathe. Notice where the sound lands in your body—many people feel it in their hips, low back, or the soles of their feet. You might place one hand on your belly as you listen, giving your nervous system a reference point for settling. There's no wrong way to work with this bowl. A teacher might play it during classroom transitions to help students refocus. An athlete might use it during visualization before competition. A parent might let it sing for three minutes while a child winds down for sleep. A caregiver might play it in stolen moments between giving, remembering that they too deserve softening.

Each Divine Bowls singing bowl includes a pure quartz mallet wrapped in premium silicone for optimal resonance, plus a silicone O-ring for stable playing on hard surfaces. Every bowl is formed in a single seamless vessel from 99.995% pure quartz—no welds, no weak points—built to last lifetimes of use.

INVITATION

This bowl holds pure epsom salt crystallized within quartz—the same mineral that taught four centuries of bathers how to soften what they'd been gripping. It doesn't ask about your credentials or your reasons for being here. It offers what it's always offered: conditions for release.

Some people will play it before board meetings. Some will let it sing while a child settles into sleep. Some will use it in professional sound healing sessions; others will simply like how it sounds in their living room at 6am, before anyone else is awake.
