We have designed an interactive listening experience to help you choose from the range of Windsong Chimes. The first step is to listen to the various tunings to determine the pitch and melody that suits your temperament. Each product page has a play button, or you can listen to all of our chimes here.
The sounds are of three main types.
Consider the different sizes and colours to aid in choosing a wind chime that will suit it's new home.
Individual responses to the sound of wind chimes varies with each listener, their temperament and personality. To help you understand the various emotional responses the different tunings of our wind chimes can invoke, here is a guide.
Calmness and relaxation
Wind chimes with a pentatonic tuning have been developed to soothe and relax. Each of our calmness and relaxation wind chimes have been tuned to calm the mind, body and soul.
Contemplation and meditation
Wind chimes with a minor tuning have been developed to enhance contemplation and meditation. Each of our contemplation and meditation wind chimes have been tuned to bring on mindfulness and a connection with the elements.
Revitalisation and inspiration
Wind chimes with a major tuning have been developed to stimulate the senses and celebrate special and festive occasions. Our revitalising and inspiring wind chimes have been tuned to invoke outward and uplifting feelings and to honour each day in all its glory.
Tranquillity and harmony
A simple method of placing a rubber band around the middle of the timber striker will mute the notes of some of our extra-large wind chimes but increase the harmonics to create a humming resonance. Our tranquil and harmonic wind chimes have been tuned to resonate within you in your peaceful surroundings.
The quality of the materials used in the manufacture of Windsong Chimes means you can hang your wind chimes in many places in and around the home. However to protect it from the harsher elements of the weather we do recommend they be placed in a semi-protected position. Think about the size of it too - the hanging height measurements are from the keyring at the top, down to the bottom of the wind sail. The image below shows the chimes to approximate scale.
When placing your wind chime, think of it as a pot plant. Move it around until you are happy with how it looks, and most importantly, how it sounds. That perfect little spot you had in mind might not have enough breeze, or worse still, may be a wind tunnel. Consider hanging your chime inside where you can control its sound by opening and closing a door or window. If they don't ring often indoors you can play them each time you pass, which is still very effective.
The ringing bright sounds of some of our wind chimes are ideal for bringing new positive energy to clear old negative energy. Wind chimes can be hung indoors or out. Hang wind chimes to activate and awaken the area to create more energy and movement in your environment and your life. A Feng Shui Consultant will be able to advise you in more detail regarding the optimum placement of your wind chime.
