Crystal & Tibetan Singing Bowls
Crystal bowl therapy helps to balance the chakra system and re-energize the auric field. Healing is thus made possible on all levels.
Each individual is unique as to which energy centre(s) require balancing. You may find yourself drawn to different tones each time you experience them.
Energy work practitioners find that sessions with clients are dramatically more effective with the use of crystal sound therapy. Clients immediately go into a state of full receptivity and relaxation. This allows the practitioner to go deeper and more easily reach underlying issues.
Vibrational Sound Healing
Vibrational sound healing can be traced back from present day trends to many ancient civilizations including India, Africa, Europe, and the Orient. In addition, each culture had unique approaches specific to their region and beliefs. Bells, chimes, bowls, gongs, drums and vocal toning, chants or repetitive sound vibrations are only a few of the many vibrational sound tools that can be used for healing. In Ancient Egypt vowel sounds were chanted in specific keys to clear and restore balance to the chakra system. Atlanteans combined sound with crystals to enhance healing. Healers today may use a combination of techniques to assist their clients.
Everything in Our Universe Is Made Purely of Vibrations
Everything in our Universe is made purely of energy vibrations and resonates with unique frequencies. Ancient religions and modern sciences agree that our 'Reality' is an ocean of living energy, and that all matter (such as a human being) is simply interpenetrating waves of energy which have crystallized into form and structure. This primordial life force energy is called by many names in different cultures – AUM (OM), Prana, Chi, Ki, Mana, Baraka, Spirit, or Quantum Energy (as the new physics label it). Most of all, Crystal Bowls work directly with this universal energy and channel it into the body to enliven our entire being! Through this super-flow of life-force energy, they can help us remember our connection with our Higher Source therefore allowing us access to the unlimited healing energy from within.
Vibrational Sound Touches our Bodies on
a Molecular & Crystalline Level
The body is a network of vibrational fields and energy currents. Each
individual resonates at his or her own vibration. Sound is an acoustical
wave while colour is an electromagnetic wave. The colours of the rainbow
correspond to a specific musical note. This is in the same way that each
chakra of the body correlates with a specific tone and colour.
Though its important to note, even though there is a tone and colour that
corresponds to each of the chakra's, each Crystal or Tibetan bowl and their tone will affect the whole body. You may feel the effects in one section of your body more deeply, but the vibrational sound will also travel throughout your entire energy field.
The human body and the entire earth are made up of energy, vibrating at different frequencies. When out of rhythm, disease and disharmony result. Vibrational sound healing addresses these imbalances or blockages of the energy channels.
Notes of The Crystal Bowls Are Tuned to Specific Frequencies Found Within The Human Body
When the sound moves through the atmosphere and touches us, it causes our cells to move in different directions at a different speed, in rhythm with the sound wave. This puts us in harmony with the sound wave. The sound penetrates into our very cells and rebalances them through oscillation and resonance. Hearing is not a prerequisite for benefiting from these healing properties. As a result, 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.
Using Sound to Heal
Dr. Mitchell Gaynor, director of Medical Oncology and Integrative Medicine at the Cornell Cancer Prevention Centre in NY has been using sound with cancer patients. This includes Tibetan Bowls, Crystal Bowls and chanting.
“If we accept that sound is vibration and we know that vibration touches every part of our physical being, then we understand that sound is heard not only through our ears but through every cell in our bodies."
"One reason sound heals on a physical level is because it so deeply touches and transforms us.
It does this on the emotional and spiritual planes. Sound frequencies can redress imbalances on every level of physiologic functioning.
Therefore, it plays a positive role in the treatment of virtually any medical disorder.”
His research shows that the sound vibration of the bowls affects the dysrhythmic motion found in cancer cells, causing a harmonious transformation. Research by Dr. David Simon, medical director of neurological services at Sharp Cabrillo Hospital in San Diego, also found that chants are chemically metabolized into ‘endogenous opiates.’ They act on the body as internal painkillers & healing agents.
