Jeralyn Glass - Sound Vibrations Heal, Transform, and Connect Us All (Founder Crystal Cadence Sound Healing Studio, Los Angeles)

"Sound became my lifeline—a bridge between heartbreak and healing, where music transforms grief into profound love and renewal.”

Q. Your book Sacred Vibrations beautifully blends personal transformation, science, and spirituality. How has your own journey inspired your understanding and teaching of the healing power of crystal sound vibrations? 

My journey with sound and music has been a leitmotiv that has shaped my life. I became a professional singer at 19 which took me from Los Angeles to NYC and Broadway, to the great opera and concert stages of the world. Those years taught me that music is indeed the universal language, that opens hearts and connects us across cultures, beliefs, politics and worldly success. 

Whether I was singing in Europe, Asia, Australia or South America- music created unity. But it was through my son that I truly discovered the healing dimension of sound. I sang the soprano solo in Beethoven’s 9th Symphony throughout my career and in my pregnancy, and after he was born, I witnessed how the same music that he heard in the womb could soothe him and dry his tears. 

Years later, during a vulnerable time in his adolescence, the Crystal Alchemy Singing Bowls became a lifeline for him — and later, after his passing 10 years ago, they became one for me. Sound helped me breathe again. It gave me safety to feel the unfeelable. 

The singing bowls helped me grieve, transform, and ultimately reconnect with love. That is what I now share — the profound healing power of crystalline sound as a bridge between heaven and earth, connecting spirit and science, and as a medicine for a shattered heart to mend and become whole. 

I play the crystal alchemy singing bowls to offer inner calm, deep relaxation and renewal. They are modern musical instruments, and I know firsthand they can bring profound healing.

Q. Sound bath healing has become widely popular recently. Can you explain the scientific ways sound waves interact with our bodies and minds during a sound bath session? 

Sound is a powerful form of vibrational medicine. During a sound bath, harmonic frequencies — especially from Crystal Alchemy Singing Bowls — can create a process called entrainment, where our brainwaves shift from an active thinking beta state into alpha, theta, and even delta- the crystalline sounds can help us enter into these different brain wave states which promote deep relaxation and regeneration and help quiet the actively thinking mind. 

Scientifically, intentional sound has been shown to lower cortisol levels, reduce the fight-or-flight response, increase cellular oxygenation, and boost immune function by raising leukocyte count. Since our bodies are mostly water, these frequencies move through us efficiently, helping to release emotional and energetic blockages. Sound becomes something we feel physically — not just hear — gently guiding us back into balance, coherence, harmony and inner peace.

Q. How can someone new to crystal alchemy or sound healing begin exploring these practices safely and effectively? 

Learn from a good teacher who understands the structure of music and the importance of freeing your unique individual expression! I’m a firm believer in the power of harmony and harmonics and not using major dissonances to push things out of people. 

Healing and transformation is a very personal journey to be undertaken with patience, love and acceptance and the right kind of guidance and support. Begin with one singing bowl and hum with it. Play it both clockwise and then try playing it counterclockwise (not at the same time, that could weaken the bowl’s structure).

Work with your personal intention. Release negativity, Create positive affirmations. Try using a C note and a G note but make sure they are tuned to one another. Once again, harmony is of great importance. It creates safety and coherent musical structure enabling a sacred space where people can feel the depth of their feelings. When we feel we have the possibility to heal.

Q. Many people experience skepticism around metaphysical healing. How do you integrate modern science with traditional spiritual knowledge in your teachings?

Laughingly I say, I am a professor but not a scientist; in my high school chemistry class, I received my first grade of a C! All joking aside, I started playing the crystal alchemy singing bowls 19 years ago as beautiful instruments, but very quickly noticed the subtle and obvious effects they had not only on me but on my family, friends and vocal students. 

Through this exquisite music, I entered the realm of the sublime, the ineffable and I discovered through their pristine music how Science and Spirituality can go hand in hand. There is a bridge connecting the visible and the invisible and that is sound vibration. 

I used the structure of music and my knowledge of crystals to build solid offerings. After my sons passing in 2015, I was exploring music as my own medicine using it as a balm for my grief when I began offering sound baths to cancer patients and their families, Hospice, Veterans, children and everyone. 

What I saw and experienced turned my life around. I used to say in bewilderment to my mom, “Mom, what happened to this professor and classical musician who is now talking with her son across the veil, and playing crystal singing bowls ….. Have I lost my marbles?” She would laugh and answer, “No dear, don’t stop, you’re helping so many people!”

Q. In the face of the stress and strain of modern life, how can sound become a shelter—providing a safe space for healing, calm, and rejuvenation?

Intentional sound is becoming recognized as a viable modality to keep us grounded and centered in our modern world with all its distractions, chaos, uncertainty and pain. 

Specifically, the vibrations of crystal alchemy singing bowls embrace us, hold us safely while we breathe and feel and transform buried and stuck traumas and emotions, and sound helps guide the thinking mind to stillness. When our mind quiets, there is so much possibility of a deep inner calm and the strength to hold that steady.

Q. What future projects or expansions are you excited about that continue your mission of spreading awareness about sacred vibrations and healing?

In addition to my published works with Hay House- Sacred Vibrations: The Transformative Power of Crystalline Sound and Music, the oracle deck The Crystal Sound Healing Oracle and my music Forever Love, Vibrance. Pentatonic Visions, Joy Reboot, (among others) and our App Source - Be Inspired, I am working on a Music Medicine Summit in October 2025, a Documentary film planned release late 2026, and a new album scored with voice, orchestra and singing bowls. 

On August 22/23, 2025, I will lead our first 2 day Healing Retreat by the ocean, south of Los Angeles designed to support those interested in experiencing the healing power of sound in combination with unleashing and exploring their creativity, authentic expression and movement.
