ESSENCE

I am the softness that arrives when you've been holding yourself together too long. When your shoulders have crept toward your ears and your breath has grown shallow, I don't demand transformation—I simply make space for your system to remember its own rhythm. This bowl carries me in layers, the way grief needs to release in layers, the way old patterns peel away so you can finally exhale.

THE ELEMENT

Lepidolite is a lithium-rich mica mineral that forms in layered sheets, its structure so delicate it flakes into thin, flexible scales—earning its name from the Greek lepidos, meaning scale. These soft lavender-gray crystals emerge from granitic pegmatites through slow, late-stage magmatic processes, primarily in Brazil, Madagascar, Russia's Ural Mountains, and select deposits in the United States. The mineral's pearly, shimmering luster catches light like fish scales beneath water.

What distinguishes lepidolite is its lithium content—up to five percent by weight. This is the same element used in psychiatric medicine to stabilize mood, and lepidolite carries it in its natural crystalline form. Traditional healers across cultures have long reached for this stone during times of emotional upheaval: Brazilian communities incorporated mica minerals into calming rituals, while Tibetan Buddhist practitioners valued similar stones for heart-mind balance during transitions.

Divine Bowls' proprietary process integrates lepidolite at the molecular level during formation, creating a unique microstructure within the quartz itself. When you play this bowl, that structure vibrates—carrying the mineral's steadying essence through sound. People who work with lepidolite report a gradual easing rather than a dramatic shift: shoulders dropping, chest softening, the static of overstimulation finally quieting. It doesn't erase difficulty. It creates room to breathe inside it.

THE FREQUENCY

This bowl sounds in D at 296 Hz, resonating with the sacral chakra in the Western diatonic system. The D frequency carries an energetic quality that is creative, flowing, and deeply emotional—vibrating through your torso, chest cavity, heart, lungs, and core. This is the body's center of feeling and creative expression, where we hold both joy and grief.

When lepidolite's gentle, steadying presence meets this emotionally resonant frequency, something particular happens. The bowl doesn't push you toward catharsis or demand release. Instead, it creates conditions for your emotional body to soften on its own terms. You might notice the tightness behind your sternum loosening, or find yourself taking a deeper breath than you have in days. The D note's natural flow combines with lepidolite's patient, grandmother-like energy to support transitions—whether you're moving through a major life change or simply need to release the accumulation of an overstimulating week.

THE TUNING

This bowl resonates at 296 Hz, placing it in our C=528 Tuning range—its frequency sits above concert pitch, producing a brighter, more energizing quality.

Bowls like this one align with instruments tuned so that C=528 Hz, known as the "Love Frequency" in Solfeggio tradition. This brighter tuning is associated with heart-opening qualities and joyful expansion. These frequencies are valued for clearing stagnation, stimulating movement, enhancing mental clarity, and bringing fresh energy to spaces or states that have become stuck.

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 6.5 inches, this bowl produces fourth-octave tones with short to medium sustain—meaning you'll play it more frequently to maintain continuous sound, creating an active, engaged experience rather than passive listening. The intimate-to-balanced volume fills a room without overwhelming it, making this size ideal for personal morning rituals, bedside use, therapy offices, classroom transitions, or centering a small team before a meeting. This size allows lepidolite's gentle, steadying presence to express with focused clarity rather than diffusing across a large space, while the mid-range frequency naturally resonates through your torso and chest—right where most people hold tension.

WORKING WITH THIS BOWL

Reach for this bowl when you've been running on empty. When the day has demanded too much, and your nervous system is still buzzing. When a child can't settle, when a meeting leaves everyone scattered, when you need to mark the transition between work-you and home-you. You don't need a meditation practice or special training. Simply play.

Start by striking the bowl once and listening until the sound fades completely. Notice where you feel the vibration in your body. Then try circling the rim slowly with the mallet—let the tone build without forcing it. A teacher might play this bowl to signal quiet focus time. A parent might use it as part of a bedtime wind-down. An athlete might play it during recovery, letting the sound support the body's return to baseline. A writer might strike it once to clear mental static before beginning. There's no wrong way. The bowl creates conditions; you do the rest.

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 99.998% pure quartz—no welds, no weak points—built to last lifetimes of use.

INVITATION

Some bowls arrive with fanfare. This one sits beside you the way a trusted friend does—present, unhurried, not needing to fill the silence.

Lepidolite doesn't promise to erase what's hard. It offers something more honest: a little more room to breathe inside it. The grandmother stone, they call it—gentle enough for a child who can't settle, steady enough for the professional who's been holding everything together since morning.
