I just realized yesterday how special it is to be surrounded by rituals and prayers on a daily basis.
Even if you don’t do rituals yourself, the prayers, mantra, vibrations that are surrounding you influence us.
We not only react to our own thoughts and emotions with a hormonal response, we as well soak up everything around us with our 5 senses and a hormonal response is created.
We are sponges of our environment.
⠀⠀
How blessed I am to be surrounded by „good vibes“ 🙏🏼

⠀⠀
Stay conscious about what you send out and what you surround yourself with (receive with your senses).

Happy Friday!😊

White Tara White Bowl✨
Second one in our white bowl trio is the White Tara bowl, holding the energy of compassion, grace, loving kindness, mothers love , healing and nurturing, health and longevity

Who are you as a woman?
Travelling and experiencing different cultures gave me lots of insights how we as women are supposed to be in society.
In the West we are supposed to be kind of a duplicate of a male, functioning, achieving, money and status is important and society tells us we can have it all 40hours work weeks and children as a side dish you just have to hustle enough.
At the same time it’s of course really important to look young, be in shape, follow the trends and to be sexy (for your man and the never ending judgment of other women) have everything under control, social obligations, schedules of yourself and the whole family.

Expectations and pressure is there but more hidden than in the East because we are free and emancipated aren’t we? the role we are pressed in is against our nature. We just don’t work like robots every day of the month the same, with the same energy levels all the time. Constant competition with other women makes us afraid to share and we feel separated and alone in our struggle because when we don’t function how it’s advertised something is wrong with us, isn’t it?
The others manage somehow, at least it seems so on the outside.

I am lucky, lucky enough to get out of societal norms and see other lifestyles. Other countries, other rules (made by men mostly). And it gives me the opportunity to question things that are not working. Things we just do because we are told to, even they don’t work for us. But when you are in the middle of everything, who are you to ask questions?

I invite you to take a look.
A close look to where you feel not comfortable. A look at things that might just not work for you. Things you follow maybe for years but they don’t feel right for you. I invite you to ask questions, to listen to your inner voice, reconnect, examine how these patterns and rules make you feel.
To make that inner voice your best advisor and don’t shushhh her anymore.
There within in that voice lays all the wisdom, of who you are and what you need.
Trust that voice and start listening🙏🏼

White bowls✨

One of our newbies that we create the *Medicine Buddha white bowl*
She is made out of the 7 metals, but silver plated and has a gold plated hand carving by our artists on the inside with the Medicine Buddha the Bhaisajyaguru. Available in all 7 chakra notes.

She carries the energy of the Buddha which is healing of all disease, mental and physical, emotional, as well as purification of possible negative karma that holds us back. He has one hand in meditation mudra and in the other one he holds a plant that is used for healing.

His mantra is:
om bhaisajye bhaisajye mahabhaisajye samudgate svaha.

Today some new bowl creations arrived in our studio from the artists.
It’s every time exciting how bowls will look in the end. You have an idea in your head of a specific bowl then the artwork and then we choose the coloring finetuning, which material to use for finishing.
In every bowl is a lot of work from the making process in the factory to choosing the bowls, sometimes 10 out of hundred, to deciding how the bowl should look like.

Do you want to know more about the making process of the singing bowls?

The divine feminine✨
I had lot of talks with women recently, from the East and from the West, patterns are different but in general I realized that we are pressed in a lot of men made schemes and rules and systems that don’t serve us at all. Lots of these patterns run unconsciously and we just function, or try to function until it gets obvious on the inside and outside how disconnected we are from our true essence.
Me myself as well started to drop more into my feminine energy as well 3 years ago, trying to loosen up the protection walls that I built over the years.
Now recently other layers came up and again I practice surrender, loosening the grip of fictions control and dropping more into the feminine.
I guess there is lots to do in the coming years and monthsfor us women,lot of patterns to break and release, reconnecting, relearning, softening.
Only when we manage to find balance within and learn to reconnect to the divine feminine, the outside world and we as whole collectively will drop out of self destruction.
We as women are deeply connected to nature and her rhythms.
There is a parallel between the destruction of the planet and the suppression of the feminine.
⠀⠀
Thats why, now it’s the time, and the shift will be within us before we will see it manifest on the outside.
It’s time to rise✨
⠀⠀

The newmoon bowl Is really beautiful for us women, especially D or F bowls for the sacral and heart chakra are beautiful to connect to our essence and heartspace, to love, creation and the divine feminine energy that is so much needed these days🙏🏼

This last month was crazy intense, it still is, at least for me.
I couldn’t really focus much on being productive or work, I just stayed with my practice and focused on rebalancing.
How was September for you?

Here in Nepal the festivals are starting with dashain around the corner, the festival where the goddess Durga as a symbol for the good wins over the evil side, the demons. At the same time I am reading a Buddhist book about how to feed your demons and befriend them that in the end they loose their power and in the end even help to protect you. It’s not so much about fighting and winning in the end but integrating.

Since it’s Dasain and Newmoon, we give 10% off for any newmoon bowl orders. So if you were thinking about getting a bowl for yourself and you were interesting in a newmoon bowl, now might be the time😊
We have them complete silver plated (still with the 7 metals that are in all our bowls) but also in silver rainbow color as shown in the picture.
If interested send me a message!🙏🏼

Happy Newmoon everyone and lots of love and light!✨

Fullmoon bowls✨
What is so special about fullmoon bowls? Maybe you are already in tune with the moon and you realize it’s changing energy depending on where we are in the month. Every moon phase has a specific energy and so do singing bowls that are made during specific moon phases.
⠀⠀
Our fullmoon bowls are hand hammered by our artists in the fullmoon night under the moonlight, the artists, the moon, the metals, cocreating a beautiful singing bowl that will support you with her energy🙏🏼✨
So with choosing a moon bowl (fullmoon or newmoon) you can work with these energies.
You will also feel that a moon bowl sounds and feels „fuller“ in sound what has to do with the energetics but as well with the metal mixture that is adapted to the planetary energies.
⠀⠀

Singing bowls are not only nice to listen to but can be used for therapies to treat the different layers of our being, physical, emotional, energetical, mental,spiritual. In the end it’s about taking good care of all our layers and keep them in balance so that we are in harmony with ourselves and our surroundings.

For treatments we use next to the sound also the vibration of the bowls (what makes them different to crystal bowls) and stimulate with the vibration different points on the body so called Nadis, or also referred to as meridians or Marma points.
Maybe you heard about these points already from other therapies like accupuncture or accupressure but in this case we don’t use needles or our hands but the vibration of the bowls to stimulate the points and stimulate the prana flow.

I also offer a treatment including both, physical touch and stimulation of the combined with sound and vibration🙏🏼

Have you ever experience a singing bowl treatment?

Sound bowl set✨
This is by the way the set creating the beautiful sounds in the last two videos on my feed.
It’s called sound bowl set and it’s super nice for sound baths, savasana, if you do reiki or breathwork sessions or I use it as well in my spa sessions at the end for like 10 minutes because the sounds of this set are really soothing.
They synchronize with the brainwaves and bring you from the active mode into relaxation mode and everybody else you play the bowls for. So even for your own meditation and when you had a stressful day with a busy mind they are nice.
This set we sell for 290$ plus shipping costs and we are shipping worldwide to your destination😊
If you have any questions let me know🤗

Fullmoon vibes!✨
Listen to your ancestors wisdom and learn from the connection they still had to Mother Earth and creation❤️🙏🏼 the answer lays in what we know already, what is inside of us, but we forget to remember.

Join us for FULLMOON✨ on Monday with a yin yoga session and afterwards the soothing sounds of the singing bowls.

*********
Expressions of Yin.

We want to invite you to a magical Full Moon practice on 20.September, we are going live in Zoom from Bali & Nepal.

This class is an embodied YIN YOGA & SOUND JOURNEY.

Today's practice is going to be deep and gentle experience, to let go of muscle tension and emotional heaviness and stress.
And simply reconnect with the peaceful energy within. Welcome the acceptance that you are exactly where you supposed to be.

Nina will guide you through a deep Yin Yoga session, from there we will move into a Sound Bath played by Kerstin.

This is an invitation to discover the deeper layers of the self, through this deep journey of Yin & Sound Healing.

Namaste beautiful souls💫

For those of you who are new here, Hi I’m Kerstin, in Asia or other countries than Germany they also call me mostly Kristin or Maya.
⠀⠀
Im here to share the magic of herbs, sounds, meditation and energy with you.
We often live lives mostly focused on our bodies and minds, disconnected from our natural state of being.
⠀⠀
It helped me a lot and I experienced great healing through learning the awareness of energy inside myself and around me and tools to balance my state of being, body mind and soul.
⠀⠀
Plants, the elements, mantra, ceremony, singing bowls and the wisdom of the ancestors are my tools and I invite you to also find ways to live more in harmony with yourself, your surroundings and nature🙏🏼✨
⠀⠀
Over the last years I studied a lot, practiced, did co-teachings with other beautiful souls, formulated my own offerings (that process will probably never end😁) and now it’s time to share and teach more than collecting wisdom. Workshops are in the making and you can already join our newmoon and fullmoon Yin&Sound sessions, next one on the 20th of September.
⠀⠀
Im currently in Nepal and excited to learn more about local rituals, plant medicine, Tibetan culture, prayer and dive deeper into my mantra practice.
This is also the place where our singing bowls that you can order with me are made by local artists that learned the art from their fathers. I will also create some special bowls for you in the future🙏🏼✨
⠀⠀
I love and feel really connected to places that kept their rituals and ceremonies as a lifestyle amd havnt list the connection to the divine.
That’s why Bali is also my home since a couple of years and was for the last months🙏🏼 before we came to the top of the world.
Now let’s see what the Himalayas have to share and what comes next💕
⠀⠀

When I experienced for the first time what sound and singing bowls can do for you I was blown away by the deepness of the experience.
I just came from my meditation teacher training where we practiced lots of different meditation styles and then sitting still was still a challenge, the monkey mind super active.
With sound it was out of a sudden different. And I also experience this with my clients, even the most mind attached person experiences relaxation and phases of mind-less-ness.
Sound touches is on a really deep level, our cells and our soul, magic✨
⠀⠀

Today was cleaning time for my bowls.
Through humidity and different temperatures it happens that the metals in the bowls react and they get stains or change color.
This is a normal process and bowls are like children😊 you need to take care of them!

1.cleansing: rub your bowls with lemon or lime water or a special metal cleanser (careful with this one and make sure what metal your bowls are made out of!) to remove the stains and discoloration. When you clean your bowl/s for the first time test on a small spot first. Depending on the bowl material and carvings they can react differently

2. smudging: use herbs or incense to cleanse the bowl not only physically from stains but also energetically.

3. charging: charge your bowls in the moonlight, sunlight, with mantras, bringing them in nature places that are energetically high like forests, waterfalls, the ocean, mountain tops, temples, shrines or other energetic places.

And of course don’t forget to play them!😊 they change with playing. When you have a set they synchronize with each other.

I miss physical touch a lot, for the last 10 years I touched a lot of faces before more for making them bright for weddings days and commercials, but for 2 years now also for bringing calmness and releasing tension.

These days I havnt touched many bodies but I’m looking forward to restart.
It’s not only a healing space for the client but as well for me offering this magic🙏🏼✨

Just found some pictures from a shooting 1,5 years ago in Bali again and I love them really much. Sometimes we need little reminders❤️

It’s crazy and scary out there at the moment right? So many things going on, things changing all the time, nothing seems stable and the only way we find calmness is within ourselves.
It’s more important than ever to find ways to go into stillness, methods to calm down your nervous system and just be in the situation. For many of us and especially when you are sensitive to energy just being is already a challenge because there is so much going on.
Do you have you have methods already that you can use? I’m so so grateful for everything that I learned in the last years, now it’s so helpful! That does not mean the struggles are going away but the tools help to navigate the craziness🙏🏼
For me it’s sound, natural methods to boost your immune system, routines that support your health, having tools at hand to regulate the nervous system.
Who else feels so much going on right now?
⠀⠀

From the jungle to the city!
In this times you have to make sometimes quick decisions when the time window opens so we made a decision and left Bali after 8 month and went from the ocean to the top of the world and highest mountains to Nepal. Well now still in the city, organizing some things before we really go in the mountains in a couple of days. Until then I’m excited about the new vibe, I’m not such a city girl and have now really a hard time to be in a building with windows and doors but I love the ceremonies and prayers and temples everywhere, the chantings.
In this Picture you can’t hear but see the guy chanting and on the left side is a huge pot of herbs that are burnt as incense, makes my herb witch heart jump higher!😁🤗

We created this beauty last year honoring the newmoon, the feminine, the mother, creation🙏🏼

Creating a bowl harnessing the energy of the newmoon, made during the newmoon✨

Offering✨
One thing that is very special here in Bali is daily ritual and offerings. Offerings are used to show gratitude and give to the gods.
Priests are kind of guardians of energy, the ones that hold rituals to keep everything in balance.

Through offerings we get receptive of energy.

When we surround us with a specific energy or go to an energetic place we receive the energy better when we offer something.

It’s an energetic exchange.

When you look at the law of attraction you cannot attract from lack only abundance. When we give we are abundant and don’t hold on to more than needed.
If we want to receive we should surrender and offer.
