Sound Bath Sessions 134: Dawn Phua

Dawn and I climbed a hill to get away from the passersby along the lake but also discovered a gorgeous vista of the MacRitchie reservoir. The reservoir was shimmering in the afternoon sun as a crew team were doing their final laps of the day. Our location had a wonderful sense of space. On the edge of a forest with tall tree canopy that hid a few small birds. The constant buzzing of the bugs and the swashing of a distant highway can be heard in the tracks. Calm in its present state.

This session began with the ting of tuning forks before playing the crystal bowls. She strikes two bowls at the same time to create different harmonies. She held the gong and twisted it left and right to play with the stereo field before ending with the crystal bowls. I noticed that she only struck the bowls which made for a very percussive, rhythmic session.
