ESSENCE

I am the stone that forms under pressure and speaks the language of becoming. When you have been avoiding something—a feeling, a truth, a necessary change—I do not let you hide, but I do not leave you alone either. I settle into your field like cool earth under bare feet, like the first honest breath after a long pretense. This bowl holds epidote crystallized within quartz walls, sounding at the crown's frequency of unity—an invitation to see clearly and grow from what you find.

THE ELEMENT

Epidote is a calcium-aluminum-iron silicate mineral that crystallizes in elongated, prismatic formations with a distinctive vitreous luster. Its color ranges from yellowish-green to deep olive and brownish-green, depending on iron content—the forest captured in stone. The name itself comes from the Greek word meaning "increase" or "addition," referring to the way epidote crystals grow: adding new faces, lengthening their form, accumulating what endures.

This mineral forms in metamorphic environments where heat and pressure reshape existing rock into something new. It develops in the spaces where transformation is not optional—where the earth itself must change or break. Major deposits occur in the Alps, Norway, Russia, and parts of the United States, each specimen carrying the signature of its particular journey through pressure.

When epidote is infused into quartz crystal through Divine Bowls' proprietary process, its molecular structure becomes part of what vibrates—not a surface treatment, but an integration at the deepest level. The mineral's grounding, growth-oriented signature weaves through every frequency the bowl produces. In contemporary wellness traditions, epidote is embraced as a stone of amplified growth and honest reflection. People work with it for emotional clearing, moving through resistance, and aligning actions with authentic values. It does not promise comfort without change; it supports the steady composting of what no longer serves into wisdom that does.

When you work with epidote, you may notice a stirring in your chest, a gentle insistence at your solar plexus. The invitation is simple: look here, feel this, stay present to what is real. This element supports the slow, honest work of transformation—not the dramatic breakthrough, but the patient sorting of what to keep and what to release.

THE FREQUENCY

This bowl sounds in B at 481 Hz, resonating with the crown chakra in the Western diatonic system. The B frequency carries the energetic quality of spirituality, connection, and unity—the note associated with our highest point of consciousness and our sense of belonging to something larger than ourselves.

At octave 4, this frequency vibrates through your torso, chest cavity, heart, and lungs—the core of your physical being. When epidote's grounding, growth-oriented energy meets this crown frequency, something interesting happens: spiritual insight doesn't float above you but moves through you. The combination supports transformation that is both elevated and embodied, helping you integrate what you discover rather than simply glimpsing it.

THE TUNING

This bowl resonates at 481 Hz. Using A=440 as reference, it plays B-45 cents. Using A=432 as reference, this same frequency is B-14 cents.

This bowl is categorized as Grounding Tuning because its frequency falls below the A=432 range, producing an even deeper, more anchoring quality. These frequencies have an inward-drawing character—sounds that settle rather than stimulate. For epidote's work of honest reflection and emotional clearing, this grounding quality is particularly supportive. It helps active minds quiet, helps scattered attention gather, helps the nervous system feel safe enough to look at what needs looking at.

(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 inches, this bowl produces octave 4 tones with short to medium sustain—sound that speaks clearly and then releases, creating natural space for reflection between strikes. The intimate volume makes it ideal for personal practice, bedside rituals, therapy rooms, one-on-one coaching sessions, or any space where you want potent sound without overwhelming presence.

This size allows epidote's patient, unflinching energy to express with focused intensity rather than diffusion. The compact form travels easily—from bedroom to office, from home to retreat. The octave 4 resonance naturally targets your torso and chest, meeting you in the physical center where so much emotional holding lives.

WORKING WITH THIS BOWL

Reach for this bowl when you feel stuck in old patterns, when you're ready to look honestly at something you've been avoiding, or when you're navigating a period of significant change. It serves the student facing a challenging semester, the executive making a difficult decision, the parent processing a life transition, the athlete building mental resilience.

Begin simply: find a quiet moment, strike the bowl once, and let the sound settle through your chest. Notice what arises without trying to fix or change it. Epidote's energy supports presence, not performance—you don't need to do anything except stay with what is real. Some people place a hand on their heart while listening. Some use this bowl at the end of a workday to process what accumulated. Some play it before difficult conversations to find their center. There is no wrong way to work with honest sound.

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

You've been carrying something heavy, and you're tired of pretending it doesn't weigh what it does. This bowl doesn't promise to lift it for you—epidote never lies like that—but it will sit with you while you set it down, turn it over, decide what stays and what can finally go. The 481 Hz grounds crown insight into your chest and lungs, the place where honest feeling lives. 

Not every bowl asks you to look at what you've been avoiding. This one does. And if you're here, reading this far, some part of you is ready to be seen.
