Tuneful Tuesday ~ Sharing the Love of My Instruments
Today I’m sharing a little about my Crystal Singing Bowls.
My first experience of crystal bowls was not a positive one. After receiving a session consisting purely of crystal bowls, I left feeling completely discombobulated and decided they were not an instrument I would ever include in my sound journeys.
But sometimes life had other plans!
After a group session, a beautiful lady approached me and gifted me her crystal bowls. She had used them throughout her healing journey with cancer and felt it was time for them to continue their journey with someone else. I was both overwhelmed with gratitude and, if I’m honest, a little horrified!
I couldn’t ignore such a meaningful gift, so I began to explore these instruments more deeply, learned about their unique qualities, and gradually started incorporating them into my practice.
Crystal singing bowls are made from pure quartz crystal and produce rich, resonant tones that can be both heard and felt throughout the body. Each bowl carries its own vibration, creating beautiful layers of sound that can support relaxation, meditation, calming the nervous system and deep rest.
What I’ve learned is that, like all sound healing instruments, crystal bowls are powerful and should be used thoughtfully and with balance. They are now a loved part of my sound journeys, complementing the many other instruments I work with and maybe the instruments I resisted the most has become one that taught me a great lesson in acceptance, openness and trusting the journey.
My hope is when sharing my instruments, that all who listen, go on a journey, with sound, to a place of love, peace, inner joy and harmony.
