Embracing the power of sound is nothing new. The ancient practice of using sound to deepen meditation and bring harmony within the spirit dates back thousands of years, and across many civilizations. Tibetan bells and crystal singing bowls have gained popularity in recent years thanks to the resurgence of sound baths.
Sound baths use a variety of singing bowls, each acoustically tuned to emit a single note, that when played together, creates a blend of tranquilizing vibrations. The reason these experiences are called sound baths is because the vibrations of sound feel almost palpable within the body, as if they are washing through you. Knowing how to use these cleansing notes in your space can add to the impact of your space clearing.

Singing bowls are powerful tools for breaking up stagnant energy. Metal singing bowls are especially good at stimulating a fresh circulation of grounding energy. You can either use a mallet to hit the side of the bowl, or circle the mallet around the rim of the bowl to create a lasting note.
Once you’ve got the hang of making your bowl sing, move throughout your space, letting the noise reverberate against the walls. Try to get the sound vibrations up toward the corners of the ceiling, the corners by the floor, in the closets and anywhere else that energy tends to get overlooked.

While Tibetan bells have additionally sacred symbolism to them, the ring of any bell will brighten up your space with positive energy. As the sound vibrations disperse blocked energy, the sweet chimes work to uplift the fresh energy leftover. Ring your bell throughout your space, working the vibrations into those overlooking areas.

Drums are a central aspect to the rituals of many cultures throughout the world, and can enhance the cleansing ritual within your own home. Use the beat of a drum to break up stored energy. You don’t need a special drum or rhythmic talent. Just beat the drum at a steady pace as you walk clockwise throughout your home.

There’s a reason that we use chants to cleanse and charge the crystals we sell. Chants help to revitalize and align the spirit of both yourself and your space. If the energy of your home is feeling off, use chants to cleanse the negativity, and get the energy of your space back in sync with the intention of love and positivity.
The chants we that use most often are “Om Mani Padme Hum” and these Om mantras. You can find a wide range of other restorative chants online. You’ll want to play the chants loud enough to fill your space, but not so loud that you bother the neighbors.
Tip: Our co-founder and crystal expert, Heather Askinosie, also recommends playing Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony to freshen up your space with an exuberant energy.

If you don’t have any tools, and you can’t play chants on a stereo or computer, there’s still one method of sound cleansing that you can likely perform—clapping. This simple technique for dismantling built up energy is surprisingly effective. Just move clockwise through your space, clapping to release those tricky energy blocks in corners, doorways and closets.

We all have great power when we use our voice. The topic of the sound of your voice is a very complex one. It starts with the resonance of your coie and goes all the way to your ability to speak your truth and stand up for what you believe in. You might use words or phrases, or you may work with tones and different sounds.

Include powerful music in your cleansing ceremony. The music has to be fairly loud, and it has to be powerful and meaningful to you. The music can either be instrumental, or include words that resonate with your intention for the room.

Metal or wood wind chimes are a great way to keep energy flowing once you have cleared a space. They can enhance a particularly difficult spot that retains stale energy, such as corners. They are great to place over your work area, including your desk chair and stove.

Always remember to keep the intention of your cleansing practice in mind while performing any sound purification method. Combine the power of sound with other cleansing tools like sage and selenite, and the energy of your home will feel brighter than ever.
P. S. Don't forget to open the windows while cleansing so the negative energy can leave the space.
