Jim's interest in Singing Bowls began around ten years ago.  He picked up a singing bowl in a store in Bethlehem and began playing.  That bowl was the first in his collection.  There are now over forty Singing Bowls in his collection and Jim teaches Intro to Singing Bowl Workshops.  He and Melissa also facilitate Singing Bowl Meditations.

 

Jim enjoys creating, some of his hobbies include, 3D Printing, beekeeping, home brewing, sewing, and jewelry making as well.  Many of the items in the Zen with Zegley shop are his creations.
