Earlier this week I was invited to attend a Crystal Bowl Healing Meditation at Commit 2 Change located at 12 Community Place in Morristown.
I have never attended a meditative workshop before and the only thing I knew about crystal bowls was that they apparently “sing.” Not sure what to expect, I went in with an open mind, two blankets and one pillow.
Once there I met Judy Becker, an energy healer and meditation facilitator. I know this sounds like a given…but this woman radiated energy. Her presence was so calming.
Judy explained that each of the bowls, made of quartz, aligned with a specific chakra. There are 7 chakras total. To learn more about chakras click here. The bowls are designed to align with the chakras and clear and heal any blockages within them.
We began with a guided meditation and then Judy started playing the bowls. The sound that these bowls made literally envelops you. At least that was my experience. I felt as if the energy and vibrations were surrounding my body.
Judy explained that it is normal to see colors especially those that align with the specific chakras during the meditation. As soon as we started I saw a blue-ish violet color. I also experienced tightness around my heart as she was “playing” the bowl that aligned with the heart chakra. I mentioned this to Judy after the workshop and she explained that this is a normal part of the healing meditation and that the vibration from the bowls is actually clearing the energy that is blocked in the corresponding chakra. This made a lot of sense.
What is amazing about this workshop is that the bowls do all the work. You aren’t required to do anything but breathe and relax. It honestly feels like a big sleepover. Everyone comes with blankets and pillows and rests as the crystal bowls do their healing.
That night I had THE best sleep. I definitely want to learn more about energy healing and meditation, and this was a great introduction.
Commit 2 Change is hosting another Crystal Bowls Healing Meditation workshop on Sunday, December 16th at 7pm. To learn more and sign up click here.
