In Seven & Twelve Resonance™, every instrument is chosen with deep intention. We work exclusively with 38-inch Wind, Chau, and Symphonic gongs, paired with Kasa Full Moon Singing Bowls, because this combination creates the depth, coherence, and full-body immersion required to support the 7 chakras and 12 meridians as one integrated system.

This choice is not aesthetic or trend-driven. It is the result of years of practice, observation, and direct experience with how the human body, nervous system, and energy field respond to sound.

Below are the core reasons these instruments are essential to our work.

1. Deep, Resonant Sound for Full-Body Immersion

38-inch gongs produce exceptionally deep, rich, and expansive sound waves that are felt throughout the entire body—not only heard. Their size allows them to generate a wide spectrum of vibration that travels through tissues, organs, fascia, and the nervous system.

This depth of resonance creates a fully immersive sound field, supporting subtle energetic shifts alongside profound physical relaxation. It establishes the foundation necessary for truly restorative sound work.

2. Supporting Both Chakras and Meridians

Chakras and meridians respond to sound in different yet complementary ways.

• Chakras are central energy centers that respond well to layered, enveloping resonance
• Meridians are continuous pathways that benefit from sound that can travel, circulate, and penetrate deeply

Large gongs—especially Wind and Chau gongs—naturally produce complex overtones and harmonic layers capable of engaging the entire energetic network. This allows sound to move vertically through the chakras and horizontally through the meridian pathways, supporting release, circulation, and realignment on multiple levels.

3. Synergy with Kasa Full Moon Singing Bowls

Our Kasa Full Moon Singing Bowls are handcrafted under the full moon and carry refined, sustained tones that work with precision and subtlety. When paired with 38-inch gongs, a unique synergy emerges:

• The bowls provide focused, intentional sound
• The gongs create an expansive vibrational container

Together, they form a unified soundscape that supports both structure and flow. The gongs carry and amplify the bowl tones throughout the space, allowing sound to fully envelop the body–mind system rather than remaining localized.

4. Deep Relaxation and Therapeutic Support

Large gongs are especially effective for restorative practices because their low, sustained resonance naturally encourages the nervous system to shift into a parasympathetic (rest-and-regulate) state.

This supports:

• Stress reduction
• Emotional release
• Nervous system regulation
• A sense of safety and inner quiet

These qualities are central to the intention of a restorative sound mandala, where healing unfolds gently, without force or effort.

5. Ideal for Group Sound Experiences

In group settings, sound must be consistent, inclusive, and physically present throughout the space.

38-inch gongs are uniquely suited for this because:

• Their sound fills large rooms evenly
• Vibrations can be felt regardless of where participants are positioned
• The experience remains cohesive rather than fragmented

This ensures that every participant receives the full benefit of the sound field, making the experience equally supportive for all.

6. Tradition, Craftsmanship, and Integrity

Wind, Chau, and Symphonic gongs have a long history in ceremonial, meditative, and healing traditions. Their craftsmanship allows for a wide expressive range—from grounding and stabilizing tones to expansive, uplifting sound.

Working with these instruments reflects a commitment to quality, lineage, and authenticity, honoring sound healing as a practice rooted in respect rather than replication.

7. Creating the Restorative Sound Mandala

A sound mandala is an intentional, multi-layered sound environment designed to address the whole system—physical, emotional, energetic, and neurological.

By working with:

• 7 Kasa Full Moon Singing Bowls
• Large-format Wind, Chau, and Symphonic gongs

we create a complete and coherent mandala that supports the full spectrum of experience. Each instrument plays a distinct role, yet all are woven into a single, harmonious field.

Summary: Why 38-Inch Gongs Are Essential to Seven & Twelve Resonance™

In Summary

We use 38-inch Wind, Chau, and Symphonic gongs because their size, resonance, and harmonic complexity make them uniquely capable of supporting the 7 chakras and 12 meridians as a unified system—especially when paired with Kasa Full Moon Singing Bowls.

Together, these instruments form a restorative sound mandala that invites deep relaxation, energetic alignment, and whole-system balance. This work is not about louder sound or stronger impact—it is about creating the conditions in which the body can naturally return to harmony.
