This article is your ultimate guide, straight from someone who’s spent many a sunset seeking out the perfect resonant sounds for a personal journey of emotional well-being and stress relief. The answer to where to buy these sacred tools is a blend of specialized wellness centers and dedicated spiritual shops, primarily clustered in the heart of Ubud and Canggu, offering everything from genuine, hand-hammered Tibetan singing bowls to exquisite crystal singing bowls perfect for personal use.
🛍️ Bali’s Best Places to Select Options for Your Sonic Journey
If you’re anything like me, after experiencing the transformative power of sound in a Balinese sacred space, your inner self starts shouting, “Get me one of those!” Finding the right musical instruments for sound therapy—tools rooted in ancient traditions and ancient wisdom from various cultures—is a deeply personal journey. You want quality, you want authenticity, and you want a good vibe. Here are the places I always send my friends (and now you!) to find their perfect sound companion:
1. ADDA YOGA Canggu: The Singing Bowl Specialist
My absolute go-to for authentic, hand-hammered Tibetan singing bowls is ADDA YOGA Canggu. Yes, it’s a fantastic yoga studio, but they have an exquisite, curated collection of sound healing instruments for sale. They are true specialists in this area.
- What they offer: They focus on authentic Tibetan singing bowls sourced directly from trusted artisans. They have a range of sizes and tones, so you can really select options that resonate with your individual needs. But it’s not just bowls! I’ve seen shamanic drums and even unique finds like a hz harmonium and an African harp—perfect for expanding your repertoire beyond the classic crystal bowls.
- Why I love it: The staff here are often skilled practitioners and can offer guidance, making it feel less like a simple purchase and more like an investment in your emotional healing and spiritual awakening. They even host group sessions and sound journeys, so you can feel the energy of the instruments before you commit!

2. Ocean of Love Store: The Variety Hub
When I’m looking for a wider selection of various instruments and accessories for my sound meditations, I head to the Ocean Of Love Store (easily accessible online, which is great for the Canggu/Seminyak crowd who don’t want to drive to the heart of Ubud).
- What they offer: This store is an Aladdin’s cave of sonic tools. You’ll find handmade hammered singing bowls, a massive selection of crystal singing bowls (including Alchemy bowls!), massive gongs, tingsha, flutes, rattles, shamanic drums (even real shamanic tambourines!), and ritual instruments. If it makes a resonant sound, they probably have it.
- Why I love it: The sheer variety means you can find different sound textures to create a truly immersive experience. Plus, they also offer accessories and ceremonial items like smudges, which is super handy for setting up your own sacred space at home.

3. Bali Yoga Center: Kits and Courses in Ubud
For those deep in the heart of Ubud, the Bali Yoga Center is a must-visit, especially if you’re looking to buy a complete set or delve into the practice with online courses or training.
- What they offer: They specialize in offering chakra-aligned sets, like the 7 Full Moon Chakra Set of Tibetan singing bowls. They focus on instruments that support the practice of yoga and sound therapy. They also run excellent sound healing courses, which is perfect if you want to become a certified sound healer or simply learn how to use the instruments for your own deep connection and to soothe your nervous system.
- Why I love it: It’s a full-service experience. You can buy the instruments, and then sign up for a training to learn the proper techniques from a sound therapist for an individual session or even how to lead a group sound event. It connects the sale of music instruments directly to the practice of ancient knowledge.

4. Exploring the Wellness Centers (Yoga Barn, Pyramids of Chi)
While places like The Yoga Barn and Pyramids of Chi are famous for their unforgettable group sessions and sound journeys—which are honestly some of the best healing experiences on the island, offering a profound impact—they are more focused on the experience rather than a dedicated instrument shop.
- Pro-Tip: Attend an Ancient Sound Healing or Sound Bath at these centers. It’s the best way to “test drive” the various options and instruments! Listen to the skilled practitioners and the voice of the sound therapist. Afterward, you can often ask the facilitators where they source their tools, or check their small retail areas which sometimes stock smaller ritual instruments.
- Pyramids of Chi: Their unique setting is an immersive experience in itself. They blend ancient wisdomwith modern science using sound and light. Website: https://ubud.pyramidsofchi.com/

- The Yoga Barn: They have a huge range of meditation classes and daily sound healing in a soothing atmosphere. Listen for the deep vibration of their gongs and the purity of their crystal bowls.

💡 Quick Tips for Buying Your Instruments
Choosing your sound healing tool should be a transformative experience, not a stressful shopping trip! Remember these fun, casual tips:
- Trust the Resonant Sounds: When you play a singing bowl or a hand drum, close your eyes. Does the sound make your physical body feel a deep connection? Does it calm your active mind? That’s your bowl! Don’t just go by the current price or look of it.
- Ask for the ‘Original Price’ History: Especially with authentic, hand-hammered bowls, a reputable shop should be able to tell you the bowl’s origin and why it has a certain original price. It’s part of the ancient cultures story.
- What’s Your Vibe?
- For calming the nervous system and deep relaxation, a crystal singing bowl is ethereal and powerful.
- For grounding and rhythmic healing (like a sonic journey), look for quality shamanic drums or hand drums used in shamanic ceremonies.
- For balancing your energy centers (chakras), go for a full set of Tibetan singing bowls or crystal bowls tuned to specific frequencies.
Buying a sound healing instrument in Bali is more than just a purchase—it’s bringing a piece of the island’s special energy and magic of sound into your life. Enjoy the hunt, my fellow traveler! May your journey be filled with inner peace and profound impact.
