10 Best Crystal Singing Bowls for Sound Healing & Meditation with Buying Guide

Before I present the 10 Best Crystal Singing Bowls, take a walk with me for a minute…

Imagine you got all the way to work and realized that in the rush to be on time, you donned one black oxford and one dark brown oxford. Getting a second pair in a different color seemed like a good idea at the time….

At your desk, you notice your co-worker pulled herself out of the queue and left you taking all the calls from frustrated customers while she put in a few hours of Facebook time….Again!

And to top it all off, your boss asked you to finish the accounting reports which normally take two days to finish, TODAY because he needed them for a meeting. Ufff!

You had a CRAP day, and all you can think about since lunch is getting home to get grounded and relaxed.

Imagine being able to take all that stress, all the anxiety, all the tension of the day and bathing it away with sound.

Imagine grabbing your favorite crystal singing bowl and sitting in your sacred meditation space in silence.

Picture yourself rubbing the suede mallet around the bowl’s edge as the soothing melody of singing comes up and tickles your ear. Hear the sound echoing as it bumps off the wall. Receive the frequency into your body. Feel the tension slide off your shoulders. Feel your body becoming more relaxed.

Now envision that sound slowly fading into silence. Enjoy the silence.

Feel the room becoming still, and your heart growing lighter. Bask in the stillness and feel relaxed.

That’s what a Crystal singing bowl can do for you! And that’s why I created this list of the 10 best crystal singing bowls.

Best Crystal Singing Bowls Buying Guide

Make NOTE! Select the chakra resonance of your crystal singing bowl

Every quartz crystal singing bowl plays a specific musical note. There is no specific ¨best note for singing bowl¨. There is only the best note for singing bowl for YOU.

To get the benefits of crystal singing bowl meditation depends in part on if the note you choose lines up with your healing intention.

Those notes that crystal bowls play relate to the octave of sound within our energy bodies or chakras in our body as follows:

C Note – Root Chakra

C-Note-–-Root-Chakra-

Your root chakra oversees your security, sensuality, sexuality, especially make sexuality, strength, and stability.

When the root chakra is blocked you may feel fear, insecurity, instability, financial worry, and a poor sense of self.

To bring the root chakra into balance using a crystal singing bowl, sit with the bowl in meditation and set the intention to receive.

Affirm:

I am strong and can cope with anything
will receive the help I need in all situations.
I have care and love surrounding me from sources I may not even recognize right now.
My needs are always met.

D Note – Sacral Chakra

D Note – Sacral Chakra

This is the Chakra of the divine feminine. The sacral chakra oversees fertility, creativity, creativity, joy, and female sexuality.

A blocked sacral chakra can cause creative blocks, fear of commitment, coldness, numbness, and shallow relationships.

To bring the sacral chakra into balance using a crystal singing bowl, sing the bowl during your meditation and use the following or similar affirmations:

I honor my body, act authentically, according to my feelings.
My sexuality belongs to me and is sacred.
I am worthy of love and pleasure.
I am true to myself.
I express myself creatively and freely.

E Note – Solar Plexus Tuned crystal singing bowl

E Note – Solar Plexus Tuned crystal singing bowl

The solar plexus chakra oversees our personal identity and power, our abilities, and influences our success personally and professionally.

When our solar plexus chakra is blocked or out of balance it causes us to lack confidence, energy, and respect for ourselves.

If you choose to use a quartz crystal singing bowl to unblock or bring the solar plexus chakra into balance, affirm these mantras with intention as you sing your crystal bowl:

My authentic self is immensely valuable to the world.
I am capable and have MUCH to offer the world.
I am grateful for who I am, gratitude fills my heart.

F Note– Heart Tuned crystal singing bowl

F Note– Heart Tuned crystal singing bowl

The heart chakra oversees unconditional love, devotion, passion, and love of self.

If your heart chakra is blocked or out of balance you may experience envy, jealousy, distrust, relationship problems, and other negative emotions.

To clear the heart chakra during your crystal bowl meditation say these affirmations with the intent to remove heart chakra blocks:

I love myself and others without fear.
My heart radiates a powerful green aura.
I shower myself with love and light.
I chose to see myself and others through the eyes of compassion.

G Note– Throat Tuned crystal singing bowl

G Note– Throat Tuned crystal singing bowl

The throat chakra oversees Fluency, thought, communication with others, our inner voice, and ability to listen and empathize. When the throat chakra is balanced it allows creative expression and allows us to have a clear, even-toned voice. When the energy is flowing in the throat chakra we easily speak our truth.

When the throat chakra is out of balance you might have problems communicating or being understood. You may have a hard time understanding the emotions of others and b misunderstood yourself. You may unintentionally have a high pitched voice or use a contrary or unpleasant tone of voice.

If you plan to use your crystal singing bowl in meditation to clear imbalance in your throat chakra and get the energy flow moving, use these mantras while you sing the bowl:

I am calm and well-spoken, people easily understand me.
My voice is clear and charismatic, people listen to what I have to say.

When the third eye chakra is blocked, you may lack intuition or imagination. You may be easily manipulated or tricked. You may have a hard time judging the intention of others.

If you believe the third eye chakra is blocked and want to use a quartz crystal singing bowl to clear the block, make these affirmations as you meditate with the bowl:

I am connected to the divine source of the universe at all times.
I feel and follow my intuition.
I am open to visions and psychic abilities.
I am in touch with my inner guidance.

B Note – Crown Tuned crystal singing bowl

B Note – Crown Tuned crystal singing bowl

The Crown chakra oversees wisdom. It gives us the ability to overcome barriers, to intensify our awareness of the unseen world around us, it heightens our spiritual senses, and is the seat of higher consciousness.

If the crown chakra is out of balance, we may feel cut off, isolated, and alone in a spiritual sense. We may have lost touch with our spiritual side altogether.

If you want to do Crown chakra work applying your crystal singing bowl, sing your bowl as you meditate on these affirmations:

I am connected to divine light and infinite intelligence.
I trust what the universe holds for me is good.
Chant or hum “OM” during your meditation.

C# Note – Soul Star tuned Crystal Singing Bowl

C# Note - Soul Star tuned Crystal Singing Bowl

This chakra holds the purpose of your existence. Reconnect with the original intention you had when coming into this life, to restore your sense of unique life purpose, realizing that you CHOSE to be in this physical realm at this time,

This chakra becomes out of alignment when you become disconnected from your feelings to the degree you feel numb. When you feel doubt and are not committed to your physical life when you are not living authentically and have lost touch with why you are here.

This chakra is intensely influenced by meditation aimed at reestablishing the bigger picture.

To reconnect to your crown chakra, one way is by playing your singing bowl while holding the flowing intentions in your mind:

I am committed to experiencing and being fully present to this brief physical incarnation I chose.
I am confident the purpose of my physical life here will be revealed.
My unique self is immensely valuable to this world and the universe at large.
I come from stardust and I will return home, but while I am here I will shine to my fullest.

Get crystal clear about the material your Crystal bowl is made of

Frosted Crystal Singing Bowls

Most of the Crystal singing bowls on the market are frosted crystal singing bowls.

These are white, or colored, and have a frosted appearance on the outer surface. These bowls are thick and durable. Frosted crystal bowls can hold vibration and sound, and are the loudest and most vibrant crystal singing bowls, ideal for an audience and larger meditation spaces.

They are easy to play, and the least expensive of all types. They are a favorite for beginners and seasoned crystal bowl players alike, and they are my personal favorite style of crystal singing bowl.

Empyrean Crystal Singing Bowls

Rich vibrant sound, full sustain, like clear bowls. Thicker and heavier than clear bowls, not as fragile. They are similar to frosted bowls in terms of their thickness, weight and heft and how easy they are to sing.

The difference is empyrean crystal bowls are hand polished on the outer surface. Hand polishing is the reason empyrean crystal singing bowls are more expensive and harder to come by.

The polished outer surface of the empyrean crystal provides a marginally clearer more steady tone than a frosted bowl.

This 11″ Empyrean Crystal Singing Bowl by Crystal Vibes is an example of an Empyrean Crystal Singing Bowl.

Clear Crystal Singing Bowls

Clear crystal singing bowls are thinner and more delicate than their frosted counterparts. The sound they make is equally delicate. If you want a quieter crystal singing bowl, for a personal meditation space, or a shared living area, these are ideal.

Clear crystal singing bowls have longer sustain, which means the singing you produce with them lasts longer. The singing is very clear, pure, and vibrant.

Size matters! Choosing the Best Crystal Singing Bowls for you

I like big bowls, and I can not lie!

If you can afford one and have the space, I recommend getting the biggest bowl you can. I think 10 inches is ideal. That’s why I selected several 10-inch bowls to put on my list of the best crystal singing bowls of 2020.

Bigger bowls have a pleasing, deeper resonance, and I feel they are more grounding. I like the way they sound and I find them easier to play.
