Frosted crystal singing bowls aren’t just instruments. They’re energy tools. Made from pure clear quartz (the same crystal you keep on your altar), these bowls are literally designed to hold, amplify, and transmit energy. That means they don’t just create beautiful sound; they also absorb the energy around them—yours, your space, the beings in the room.
So, to keep your bowls clear, tuned-in, and vibrating high, it’s important to give them a good energetic cleanse. Below are my favorite ways to cleanse your crystal sound bowls—choose one or mix and match!
1. Nothing but intention
Let’s start with the most powerful (and simplest) tool in your sound healer toolkit-your intention. As Dr Joe Dispenza has already proven intention shapes your reality and mindful awareness has the power to heal, change energy before it becomes matter and create your reality. The best part about this cleansing ritual is that you do need anything outside of yourself.
Steps To Cleanse Your Sound Bowls With Intention:
This is great to do before a session or after a particularly intense energy release.
1. Take a moment to connect with your bowls
2. Place your hands on them, close your eyes, and repeat a cleansing prayer:
“I free any stagnant or heavy energy from this bowl."
"I cleanse and reset it to its highest frequency, ready to support healing, clarity, and love.”
2. Cleanse your Sound Bowls with Palo Santo or Sage
Smudging is a beautiful, traditional way to cleanse energy—especially effective for crystal bowls, since quartz responds well to the vibrational frequency of smoke.
Steps To Cleanse Your Sound Bowls With Palo Santo:
- Light a stick of Palo Santo or a bundle of white sage (ethically sourced, of course)
- Gently waft the smoke around your bowls in a COUNTERCLOCKWISE motion .
- Make slow, circular movements, and don’t forget to get underneath and around the rim, as these are energy-sensitive areas.
- While you smudge, repeat your intention, i created this rhyme.
“As this sacred smoke clears the space, I invite all heavy energy to dissipate"
3. Cleanse with The Moonlight
Crystals love moonlight, and your quartz singing bowls are no exception. Since they’re made from 99.9% pure silica quartz, they’ll absorb and be recharged by the natural frequency of the moon. It is best to do this on the night of a full moon.
Steps To Cleanse Your Sound Bowls With Moonlight:
- Place your bowls by a window or outside .
- Let them bathe in the lunar glow overnight.
The moonlight will not only cleanse your bowls but also charge them with fresh, radiant energy—making your next meditation or sound healing session even more powerful.
If you want to go all-out: pair this with a moon ritual, journal your intentions, or even play your bowls under the moon to co-create some seriously cosmic energy.
4. Cleanse with Sound
You can cleanse your sound bowls with sound itself such as chimes, bells or the frequency of your voice by chanting the OM mantra. Additionally, A purifying frequency to play is 417Hz.

"these bowls are attuned to the highest good"
