West Wind Vibes

Custom hand-crafted native wooden instruments and goods. Specializing in didgeridoos and sound healing therapies. The skys the limit.

Grown in Los Angeles with Cuscatlan, El Salvadorian Roots; I have been performing, making, and teaching others how to play didgeridoos for over 19 years. I am not only an advocate for healthy living but also self-expression, and practicing healthy eating, natural living, community healing, plant medicine, energy work, meditation and so much more. My ways of teaching are my own practices of health & self-expression through the didgeridoo. Little know that it has a wide range of applications, including meditative practices and chronic illness support. The resonance of the didgeridoo enables the listener to ease symptoms of chronic illness and release stored negative energy and emotional stagnation. Sound Healing with Didgeridoo and other Native Instruments:
The unique tones of the didgeridoo allow listeners to effortlessly enter a deep meditative state, activating the delta and theta brain waves: these specific brain waves help us achieve our highest healing potential for both physical and mental health, by re-engaging our mind-body connection. My company, West Wind Vibes, was born from inspiration to educate students on the history of the didgeridoo, and the freedom of self-expression through art, music, and of course, the Didgeridoo! offer beginner to advanced level didgeridoo lessons; along with Infrasound Massage, Didgeridoo Sound Therapy, Instrument Repairs, Group Workshops, One-on-One Lessons, and Custom Work! Himalayan Singing Bowl Sound Therapy:
I attended ATMA BUTI Sound & Vibrational School in Boulder, CO. There I am working on my full certification in three different levels of healing and doing protocols with my teacher Suren Shrestha. Healing with Himalayan healing methods has been another passion of mine. I now offer a variety of therapy sessions here in the St Petersburg, FL area as well as virtual lessons; personal coaching, facilitating relaxation therapy, emotional release therapy, warm water therapy, and much more. I truly believe in the power of vibration, prayer, intention, health, and positivity. It’s an honor to do these ancient practices and to share them with you all. Handcrafted Wood Creations - Didgeridoos and Home Items:
Using the finest resources possible, I’m currently working with Maple Wood, Black Walnut Wood, Red Cedar Wood, Camphor, Chechen, Indian Rosewood, African Black Wood, and much more. I can also put unique custom inlays like stones, crystals, metals, plants, custom 3D inlays ..etc. Send me a message and we can talk wood type, colors, placements, and the meaning for your unique work of art.

⚡️Djalu Gurruwiwi⚡️
Yidaki/didgeridoo

Key: F # perfect
1st overtone: E,C #,G
Length: 59"1/2
O/Mouthpiece: 2" I/M: 1"1/16
Bell: 6" × 4"1/2
Material: Stringybark Eucalyptus
Origin: NE Arhemland
Artist: Djalu Gurruwiwi
Price:1,600 +shipping

Description: This yidaki I personally got from a guy in Florida. I got 7 or 8 Djalu yidaki from him. All legit,from his old website he had at one point. This one was not on the site but was told it was one Djalu made and played around that time. This was roughly around year 2000? I made sure at the time I got all the information. With all the other yidaki I got, Jeremy Cloake and Randin helped me with the art on the pieces and so on. This piece was part of that wholeness that came from Yirkala. It's a solid Djalu with a unique shape. The paint is the same way I got it,a bit old looking.

Sound: A very responsive yidaki (didgeridoo). It has clear vocals, solid overtone that is warm to the drone. I'd say it has the Wittij energy, no need argue for the rhythm. It's powerful played slow or fast. The resonance on this one is a power house. A definitely collectors item and phenomenal instrument!

Contact me for more information. Gracias! 🙏🏼

🌿💚New Kuripe!💚🌿

For this applicator I used Brown Mallee burl and Wild Olive wood. Love the color combination, this step is always different. Picking what woods look nice together is a one step to the creation. Really love how the combination of these woods came out. The natural corner end makes it stand out. Also the waves of the wood grain capture your attention.This piece was sacred made and with pure intentions. It also has the 🕉 engraved on it. All natural, nothing was staind. These are woods I've been working with for over a decade. Get something handmade and unique for a loved one this year. These are ONE-OF-A-KIND.

Price: $155. Dm me.

Brown Mallee is an incredible species native to Australia. The wood has a beautiful color and figure. It’s a distinctive mix of bright golden heartwood with white sapwood. The wood exhibits dense and smooth nature with light sanding. The wood lumber assures a durable finish and natural artistic palette for the artisan..

Olivewood grows in many areas throughout Southern Europe, the Middle East and Eastern Africa. It is the tree that produces commercially grown olives for the fruit and also to make olive oil. The unique quality of this wood is that it is completely sustainable. The trees are not cut down but actually the limbs are pruned and the stump remains. The tree will regenerate much like a Crepe Myrtle and resume production of olives. Because of this process the logs (limbs) harvested are not very big and you will rarely see live edge slabs over 30" wide. Olive is also a very twisted tree so the wood often has occlusions and wildly swirling grain patterns.

🌿💚New Kuripe!💚🌿

For this applicator I used Brown Mallee burl and Ebony woods. Love the color combination, this step is always different. Picking what woods look nice together is a one step to the creation. To be honest Ebony looks good pretty much on any wood. This piece was sacred made and with pure intentions. It also has the seed of life engraved on it. All natural, nothing was staind. These are woods I've been working with for over a decade. Get something handmade and unique for a loved one this year. These are ONE-OF-A-KIND.

Ebony is a dense black/brown hardwood, coming from several species in the genus Diospyros, which also includes the persimmon tree. Few Diospyros species such as macassar and mun ebony are dense enough to sink in water. Ebony is finely textured and has a mirror finish when polished, making it valuable as an ornamental wood.[1] It is often cited as one of the most expensive woods in the world.

🌿💚New Kuripe!💚🌿

For this piece I used Yellow Box Burl(Australia) and Wild Olive(Middle East areas).
Love the way the colors are on this one. Pictures don't do justice for the true beauty. It also have the Flower of Life engraved on it. All natural, nothing was staind. These are woods I've been working with for over a decade. Get something handmade and unique for a loved one this year. These are ONE-OF-A-KIND.

Price: DM this one is available.

Yellow Box Burl is a unique and interesting Australian exotic wood with a lot of interesting figure & burl! The heartwood ranges from light pink to golden brown with pale gray sapwood that is sharply demarcated from the heartwood. This is a great wood for many projects.

'Junab-Doo'

Key: C # perfect in 440Hz

1st overtone: B #,Bb,D #,G #

Length: 74"

Inner/Mouthpiece:1"1/4

Material: NC Spalted Maple

Origin: North Carolina

Artist: Anthony Aleman
-available Price: $899

Description:This particular piece is an exceptional instrument with excellent balance, clarity, warmth and the PLAYABILITY is superb. Very responsive to any articulation with the mouth. Can be played with fire energy (masculine) to calming water energy (feminine). It has great backpresure for circular breathing technique. Clear harmonics and vocals. The overtones are easy to hit(add to your playing).

This is the last of the 3 pieces of Spalted Red Maple I hand picked from NC a few years back. Since I've seen the knot on this piece I wanted to use that section for some decorative or unique piece add on(so i added a hunab-ku uv activated inlay). There is also Pakistan quartz inside that knot! It also has a really cool bell end. It's not round! Lol. Also enjoying the flow of natural curves I left on this beauty. From caramel tones to pink hues and dark greys. Very elegant and solid piece of art and musical instrument.

The phrase “Hunab Ku” is typically interpreted to mean “Sole God” or “One God,” with “Hunab” meaning “one state of being” and “Ku” referring to “God”. This entity is believed to be the ultimate source of all consciousness and life in the universe. It’s sometimes considered to be a deity in Mayan tradition and at other times, a concept.

The modified symbol bears a resemblance to the Chinese yin yang symbol, which is also circular and depicts a black and white inverted pattern. The hunab ku symbol can be said to represent the following concepts:

Unity and Wholeness: The circular shape of the symbol can represent the unity and wholeness of the universe. It suggests the idea that everything in the universe is interconnected and part of one singular entity or force.

Duality: Much like the yin-yang symbol, the Hunab Ku is often interpreted as representing the duality inherent in all things (male and female, dark and light, life and death, etc.), and the necessity of balance between these opposing forces. For every object, there exists its opposite: male and female, dark and light, internal and external, good and bad, up and down, and so on. The Hunab Ku is sometimes viewed as the bridge that connects the duality of things.

Motion and Energy: The swirling elements of the symbol can represent motion or energy. This might be interpreted as a reference to the dynamic nature of the universe, with constant cycles of change, transformation, and renewal.

Balance and harmony: The symbol represents a bridging of opposites and as such, symbolizes balance and harmony.

This piece was inspired by 'Junab-K'uj'.
