Relaxation & Meditation Timer
Silent Meditation Timer With Tibetan Singing Bowl
This large tibetan singing bowl has a much softer, warmer tone that is laden with harmonics. The timer starts and finishes with three strikes with nothing but silence in between (note - the three bowl sounds at the end of the meditation start softly and finish more loudly so as to bring you out of your meditation gently).
