Listening Is Optional: Consent in Tibetan Singing Bowl Work
You do not need to listen the entire time.
You do not need to stay near the sound.
You do not need to “work with” the vibration.
Turning the sound off is part of the practice.
Leaving the room is part of the practice.
Needing quiet afterward is part of the practice.
