The
Zen
Alarm
Clock's long-resonating Tibetan bell-like chime makes waking
up a beautiful experience — its progressive chimes begin your day with
grace. When the Clock's alarm is triggered, the acoustic chime bar is
struck just once … 3-1/2 minutes later it strikes again … chime strikes
become more frequent over 10 minutes … eventually striking every 5
seconds until shut off (see the chime progression graph, below). As
they become more frequent, the gentle chimes will always wake you up —
your body really doesn't need to be awakened harshly, with a Zen Clock
you're awakened more gradually and thus more naturally.
Zen Clocks are
made with a Japanese quartz movement and measure 8" high x 11" wide x
3" deep. They run on 4 "C" batteries (not included). Average battery
life with everyday use is about 2 years.
Each Zen Clock's 'E tone'
chime has been hand-tuned to produce the same tone as the tuning forks
used by musical therapists. The 10 minute chime progression sequence
follows the a specially composed golden ratio progression.
Zen Clocks come with a 40 page booklet detailing their many uses and
their harmonic design. All Now & Zen products are designed in
Boulder, Colorado, and made in Shen Zhen, China; they include a 1 year
warranty and our 30 day money-back guarantee.

natural lifestyle. Its long-resonating acoustic chime set in a solid
hardwood case adds tranquility and aesthetic pleasure to any

Progressive
Alarm • Interval Timer • Countdown Timer
Fully Portable • Chimes on the Hour
This precision timepiece can be programmed to countdown to zero and
chime, or to strike its chime repeatedly at any set interval. In the
alarm clock or countdown timer modes, the Clock's chime gradually
increases through a pre-programmed 10 minute progression (shown on the
right). It can also be set to chime once every hour on the hour as a
'mindfulness chime.'
Beginning in 2005, all our Digital Zen Clocks are
the new and improved "version 2.0," featuring a silent striking
mechanism and a "high" and "low" chime volume which allows you to
adjust the sound of the chime to suit your needs. The Digital Zen Clock
runs on 2 AA batteries (not included), and it has a lighted digital
display (lit full-time when plugged in with the included AC jack).
All Digital Zen Clocks include a 30 page booklet detailing their many
uses and their harmonic design. All Now & Zen products are designed
in Boulder, Colorado, and made in Shen Zhen, China; they include a 1
year warranty and our 30 day money-back guarantee.
ZEN TIMEPIECE
These products are no longer available.
As a
result of ten years of product evolution, Now & Zen, has
created the world's ultimate alarm clock, practice timer, and
"mindfulness bell." Their new Zen Timepiece's acoustic 6 inch brass
bowl-gong fills your environment with beautifully complex tones
whenever it strikes. In the morning, its exquisite sounds summon your
consciousness into awakening with a series of subtle gongs that
provide an elegant beginning to your day. When the alarm is triggered,
the gong strikes just once … then automatically it strikes again in
3-1/2 minutes … then in 2 minutes … then in 1 minute … As shown
in the chart below, the gong strikes gradually increase over 10
minutes, eventually striking every 5 seconds until turned off. Once you
experience the Zen Timepiece's progressive awakening, you'll never want
to wake up any other way.
In addition to its use as an alarm clock, The Zen
Timepiece also serves as an aesthetically-sophisticated timing device
for the practice of yoga, meditation, bodywork, or any activity where
beauty and tranquility are important. Upon reaching the end of the
programmable countdown time, the clock strikes through the same 10
minute progression sequence as the alarm function described above. In
the interval timer mode it can be set to strike its gong repeatedly at
any time interval. The interval timer's repeating gong strikes are
perfect for yoga, wherein the rich sound of the gong guides you through
your practice by periodically signaling the time to change positions.
The Zen Timepiece also includes a strike-on-the-hour function that is a
true delight for your home or office, and perfect for the practice of
'mindfulness.'
In addition to the beauty of its sound, the Zen
Timepiece is also visually beautiful, serving as a decorative accessory
that can be positioned with the digital clock display facing out, or
with the bowl-gong to the front, as shown above. It is available in
either a clear maple wood finish, a reddish-brown cherry wood finish,
or a glossy black lacquer finish. The black lacquer finish comes with
either a brass bowl (like the cherry or maple versions) or a nickel
(silver colored) bowl. The silver bowl version also features a matching
silver LCD display and control panel. The volume of the Zen Timepiece's
gong strikes can be adjusted over a wide range, from soft, subtle ring
tones to loud, bold gongs that can be heard throughout the house. But
however you use it, we are sure that the Zen Timepiece will improve
your life with the natural resonant tones of its rich acoustic gong.
The Zen Timepiece runs on 2 "C" batteries (not included), it measures
4.5 inches high, 9.5 inches wide and 7 inches deep, and comes with a 40
page booklet detailing its many uses and its harmonic design. All Now
& Zen products are designed in Boulder, Colorado, and made in Shen
Zhen, China; they include a 1 year warranty and our 30 day money-back
guarantee.

The
Tibetan Phone Bell serves as a unique replacement ringer for your
telephone & simple meditation timer all in one. Simply plug in your
phone line, turn off your telephone's ringer, and when a call comes in
your phone will ring with the long-resonating tones of our 6 inch brass
bowl-gong.
The bowl-gong rings every six seconds (the same interval as your
phone's ring cycle) until the call is picked up. The Tibetan Phone Bell
is an attractive decorative accessory that fills your home or office
with beautiful tones whenever you receive a call. (Telephone not
included.) For use as a countdown timer, simply turn the control knob
to set the minutes in the LED window, press start, and the timer counts
backwards to zero and strikes the bowl-gong. Strikes gradually increase
in frequency over a 10 minute period as shown in the chart below.
The 6 inch diameter brass bowl gong rests on a wooden platform housing
the product's electronics. The timer can be set from 1 to 99 minutes.
The striking mechanism can be set on high or low and the "mute" feature
prevents incoming calls from disturbing your practice during countdown
timing but still allows the bell to sound at the end of the countdown
time. The Tibetan Phone Bell is available in clear maple or dark
oak wood finishes, it measures 4.5 inches high, 9.5 inches wide and 7
inches deep. It runs on 3 C batteries (not included) and includes a 1
meter phone line extension to connect to any telephone. Connect the
product to any phone jack and then connect your phone to it, or connect
it to an extra phone jack as a stand-alone ringer.
The Tibetan Phone Bell is compatible with all answering machines and
voice mail, but it only works with normal analog phone lines—it is
not for use with multi-line digital phone systems. It includes a 30
page booklet describing its operation, its use for spiritual practice,
and the harmonic features of its design. All Now & Zen products are
designed in Boulder, Colorado, and made in Shen Zhen, China; they
include a 1 year warranty and our 30 day money-back guarantee.

Now & Zen
has created the world's most aesthetically sophisticated doorbell. The
Zen Doorbell's acoustic brass bowl-gong fills your environment with
beautifully complex tones whenever it strikes. And in addition to the
beauty of its sound, the Zen Doorbell is also visually beautiful - its
six inch brass bowl and cherry wood base serve as a decorative
accessory that looks good in any room.
Its radio-controlled wireless wood control button mounts easily to your
front door's threshold with no wiring required. The sound of the Zen
Doorbell's gong strike can be adjusted over a wide range, from soft,
subtle ring tones to loud, bold gongs that can be heard throughout the
house. It can also be set to make a single strike or a double strike
each time the button is pressed.
The Zen
Doorbell's distinctive sound can be used in a variety of ways: its
primary use, of course, is as a doorbell for your home.
But it also serves as a paging device (so you can summon your butler,
or more likely your kids to the dinner table); and it's great for
retail environments for use as a front counter bell. The Zen Doorbell
can also be used to call meetings to order, or as a way to signal an
accomplishment or the scoring of points. But no matter how you use it,
we know you will enjoy the beauty of the naturally-resonant sound of
its rich acoustic gong.
The wireless wood control button has a 40 foot range and comes with its
A23 type battery pre-installed. The Zen Doorbell's wood platform is
powered by 4 "C" batteries (not included). Each Zen Doorbell includes a
24 page booklet detailing its operation and uses. All Now & Zen
products are designed in Boulder, Colorado, and made in Shen Zhen,
China; they include a 1 year warranty and our 30 day money-back
guarantee.
