Crystal Singing Bowls: The Angelic Sound of Healing, Relaxation and Spiritual Awakening

One of the greatest contributions this book, this teaching - Ashana’s Crystal Singing Bowls - makes to the now-blossoming world of sound healing is that it’s profound wisdom - borne of 20 years of spiritual search, deep personal healing, and the development of mindful, heart-centered, reverential playing of crystal singing bowls - expresses the ineffable so succinctly, clearly, credibly…and practically. What is offered to us is a carefully researched body of knowledge which the author has tested, transparently sharing from her personal experience as well as the fruits of the practices of many other healers and explorers, carefully footnoting contributions from these fellow experts and making online instructional videos available.The reader is brought to appreciate the ancient roots of sound and music extending through human history, those roots as well as sound principles reaching us also from essential realms of consciousness that guide both the unfolding of creation as well as our return to full awareness through wholeness and healing. Ashana makes clear the connection between the vibrational essence of our inner and outer worlds, how we as a world culture have become out of tune with essential basic harmony, and how quartz crystal bowls, in the hands of a skilled player/healer, have a powerful role in restoring such harmony throughout our lives and that of the planet and cosmos. Foundational principles such as entrainment and resonanceFoundation-laying knowledge such as the principles of entrainment and resonance, and more, are woven throughout the text, providing “sound” understanding to guide personal exploration and practice. Ashana refreshingly, sensitively, non-judgmentally, and straight forwardly invites the letting go of some common misunderstandings within the contemporary field of sound healing, maintaining a balanced perspective and encouraging readers to caringly deepen their own sensitivity while developing their inner hearing and voice to discern not only which principles within their own lives will guide their practice, but also which bowls they will be guided to select and which practice styles will best resonate with them and those who listen to their playing.By Ashana’s example, the reader is guided to consider how true healing embraces multiple modalities, and that the playing of crystal bowls powerfully complements vocal sounding, conscious breathing, mantra, prayer, meditation, and other practices. There is no recipe, no specific script to follow, Ashana shares. The relationship one develops with one’s bowls opens one “to being in a relationship with the sacred.”By the end of the book, both readers who are new to the developing role crystal singing bowls play in today’s world of sound healing as well as those who are already deeply invested in this experience, will know how to deepen their embrace of this expansive, organic, love-based practice. Extensive references including links and access to the author’s offer of support, are provided.Ashana, herself, is a vessel for the transmission of the healing power of the Music of the Spheres; this book is a key she is placing in our hands, and our hearts, to open us to the infinite possibilities of wholeness, healing, and wakening.

Ashana has created a beautiful compendium of valuable information on Crystal Singing Bowls, including attributes I had not imagined to be true. She states “Your bowls are alive. They are living consciousness embodied in a beautiful and magical 2 dimensional body.” I had not thought of them as such, but it makes sense, as they are conduits for subtle Living Light & Holy Sound that infuses listeners with the uplifting vibrations of Creation. This book is a treasure comparable to a brilliant gemstone. I enjoy the many colorful illustrations; I love how Ashana shares everything she knows about crystal bowls from how the vibrations gently permeate the listener’s body and actually transform one’s State of Being to how to respectfully care for your own bowls. I love the many videos throughout, in which she demonstrates how to play crystal bowls, the sound of Binaural Beats and more. And I love her personal stories,“How I Met My First Crystal Bowl” and the touching story of recording Ave Maria. The composition of the many types of bowls creates unique healing expressions, due to the combinations of precious minerals, gemstones & metals. This topic is thoroughly covered.Ashana’s noble character shines through with her honesty, after years of experience in playing crystal bowls; with her deep caring for them, humankind & nature; and her intention to bring sound therapy to the very forefront of healing through this book & her generous website offerings. She offers personal assistance in choosing the right bowls. Her online store offers stunning crystal bowl sets to purchase with accompanying videos of Ashana playing each set. Her offerings are fun to explore and listen to :)I give a reverential thank you to this noble lady, Ashana.

I would like to applaud Ashana for such a beautiful book that invokes and expresses the real essence of the singing bowls and the power they have to change people and their lives.I experienced sound therapy just under a year ago and it literally changed my live. I personally share my experience with others in a hope they will themselves want me to encapsulates its true nature and potential. I use my singing bowls on regular basis and even my cat is memorised by it sound. Just want to say thank you for sharing your gift with us.Love Michelle-Harmony
