Sam Jackson.
Since childhood, Sam was drawn to music. He loved exploring the unique sounds of musical instruments, from voice and piano, to saxophones and double reeds. Moreover, he was held by the way music "feels". Vibrations seemed to share a quality or way of being as a language unto itself.
Years of life experiences and personal growth made it clear that regardless of where he was or what he was doing, Sam would devote his life to finding a dynamic and mindful balance, without as well as within. Meditation proved a helpful practice.
Sam now blends the vibrational qualities of crystal bowls and voice with the proven benefits of mindful meditation. Sam shares what he knows and loves in the form of crystal bowl meditations, both live and recorded. Live events are periodically held in the San Francisco Bay Area. "Dropping Into Stillness" is his first CD project, followed by "Initiate: Crystal Bowls & Bamboo Flutes".
Crystal Bowls.
Crystal bowls, made from silica sand (quartz) or crushed quartz crystals, create a pure (sine) wave form that can carry through physical objects.* In the right setting, you may "feel" the bowls as well as hear them.
When played together or blended with voice and other instruments, the bowls offer a deep, meditative quality that assist in letting go and "Dropping Into Stillness".
