With their resonant, pure-tone frequencies, and the innate properties of crystal, to amplify, transmit and store energy, these exquisite instruments are powerful tools which can be used to enhance meditation and prayer and to support healing. When combined with mantra and prayerful intention, crystal singing bowls can help entrain mind, body and spirit to a more harmonious experience of peace, well-being and balance.

Here are answers to a couple of common questions about these beautiful instruments.

What Are Crystal Bowls Made Of?

Crystal singing bowls are traditionally white frosted bowls made from 99.992% pure crushed quartz and heated to about 4000 degrees in a centrifugal mold. They come in a variety of sizes, ranging from 6 to 24 inches in diameter.

The crystal bowls played on All Is Forgiven are made of pure quartz crystal that has been infused with precious minerals, metals and elements. These bowls are smaller and lighter than the traditional classic frosted crystal singing bowls and have a more penetrating, resonant ring that is rich in musical overtones. Energetically, these alchemical bowls help entrain us to higher, more refined, vibratory frequencies.

Here is a sample of one of my favorite bowls played on All Is Forgiven:

Because of the different elemental qualities of rose quartz, it has its own distinct ring and musical color.

Note: Please stop the top player and any music playing before start listening to the sound.

Love to all,
