We love crystal singing bowls for obvious reasons. They are beautiful to look at and listen to. But do you know what actually happens when a singing bowl is played?
Crystal singing bowls are used with yoga, sound healing, crystal cleansing, space clearing and to signify the beginning and end of meditation.
Running the mallet around the bowl with slight pressure will create the tone. When this happens, the bowl is said to sing, hence its name. They create a range of sounds to restore the normal vibratory frequencies of diseased and out-of-harmony parts of the body, mind and soul.
Studies have shown that sound has a direct impact on the mental processes, muscles, nervous system, heartbeat, pulse, digestive system and circulatory system.
Alignment with the tones of the Crystal Bowls is one of the most dynamic forms of sound healing found today.
There are many benefits to using crystal signing bowls, here are just a few:
- Significantly reduces stress and anxiety
- Stimulates the immune system
- It assists with lowering blood pressure and anger
- Deep relaxation and pain relief
- Assists with chakra cleansing and balancing
- Helps to calm overactive adrenals
- Increases mental and emotional clarity
When using crystal singing bowls specifically with crystals, they can help cleanse and clear negative energy from them. The sound waves can also assist to enhance and activate the natural properties of the crystals.
The notes of the crystal singing bowls correspond with each of the major chakras. Chakras can be described as energy centres of the body. Each energy centre has unique aspects and corresponds with specific tones of the musical scale. Keeping these centres in balance results in health and harmony.
