The lavender is molecularly integrated into the quartz during formation at over 3,000°F, creating a permanent microstructure that vibrates when the bowl is played. Unlike aromatherapy's scent-based pathway, this delivers lavender's calming signature through sound frequency—affecting the nervous system through auditory entrainment rather than olfactory receptors. Practitioners report the effect as more embodied and less likely to cause scent sensitivity or drowsiness.
The third octave frequency (419 Hz) naturally resonates with the pelvis, hips, and lower spine—your foundational connection to earth. When lavender's crown-associated gentleness meets this lower-body vibration, the calming doesn't float into abstraction. People describe it as "peace that lands in your sitting bones"—the mental quieting happens because the body settles first, creating the neurological conditions for thoughts to slow without forcing stillness.
Yes—this is where the Uplift tuning (+15 cents) becomes significant. The frequency sits above concert pitch, producing a brighter quality that maintains alertness while lavender's essence calms the nervous system. Teachers use it for classroom transitions, athletes for pre-competition centering, and remote workers for focus sessions. The bowl creates settled presence rather than sedation—ideal when you need mental clarity alongside calm.
This bowl serves anyone navigating the tension between needing calm and needing to stay functional. Parents managing overstimulated children at bedtime, teachers resetting classroom energy after recess, therapists working with anxious clients who dissociate when "relaxation" goes too deep, insomniacs whose racing thoughts prevent sleep, and anyone whose stress response is mental chatter rather than physical tension. The G# throat-third eye resonance specifically addresses the "can't turn off my brain" experience.
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 bowl is formed in a single seamless vessel from 99.998% pure quartz—no welds, no weak points—with lavender integrated during formation rather than applied afterward. At 10 inches, this size produces deep, penetrating volume with very long sustain, ideal for large groups or filling entire rooms with sound.
The lavender infusion is permanent—integrated at the molecular level during formation, not as a surface coating that can wear away. The bowl is completely waterproof, temperature-stable, and sunlight-safe. Clean with water and mild soap when needed; the seamless one-piece construction means no joints to protect. Because lavender's essence is part of the quartz structure itself, the bowl's calming properties remain constant through decades of use—built to last lifetimes.
