The herbs—mugwort, blue lotus, chamomile, lavender, passionflower, lemon balm, hops, catnip, vervain, angelica root, and others—are infused at a molecular level during the bowl's formation at over 3,000°F. Even as volatile compounds transform at high temperatures, their structural imprint remains within the quartz, creating unique resonance patterns. This isn't a coating; the herbs become part of what vibrates, producing a softer, more enveloping tone that people describe as "settling into you" rather than projecting outward.
The combination resolves a common problem: herbs that open visionary states can feel unmoored without grounding. This bowl's F# at 360 Hz anchors the descent into rest, resonating through pelvis, hips, and lower spine while the herbs invite surrender. You don't float away into dreams—you settle down into them, rooted and present. Practitioners use this when clients need profound nervous system regulation before sleep, or when racing thoughts prevent the body from recognizing it's safe to rest.
Yes—the bowl supports nervous system regulation, not sedation. While evening use enhances sleep transitions, daytime applications include calming exam anxiety, resetting after overstimulation, or closing yoga classes. Teachers use it for classroom transitions without making students sleepy. The herbs create conditions for rest when you're ready; the grounding frequency simply helps scattered energy consolidate. Think of it as a "reset" tool rather than a sleep-only instrument.
Parents creating bedtime rituals for children who resist sleep, students managing test anxiety and mental overwhelm, tea ceremony enthusiasts pairing sound with herbal brews, and anyone navigating insomnia rooted in racing thoughts rather than physical restlessness. The 10-inch size produces sustained tones that fill a bedroom without requiring constant playing—one strike as lights dim becomes part of the settling ritual. Therapists also use it at session's end to help clients integrate before returning to their day.
This bowl resonates at 360 Hz, which measures as F#-16 cents when using A=432 as reference—nearly a true tone F#. It falls into the Grounding Tuning category, producing an even deeper, more anchoring quality than standard A=432 range. When played alongside instruments tuned to the A=432 standard, the bowl's frequency integrates seamlessly. The grounding tuning complements Lucidity Tea's purpose: both the herbs and the frequency ask your system to come down, release activation, and trust the descent into rest.
Each bowl includes a pure quartz mallet wrapped in premium silicone for optimal resonance, plus a silicone O-ring for stable playing on hard surfaces. The O-ring allows the bowl to resonate freely without dampening. This bowl is formed in a single seamless vessel from 99.998% pure quartz—no welds, no weak points—built to last lifetimes of evening rituals. The 10-inch size produces octave 3 tones with very long sustain, meaning a single strike continues singing for minutes.
