The origins of crystal healing lie deep within the sands of times…
Long ago, ancient civilizations had deemed that the crystals found on earth held superpowers. These stones were believed to get their energy from nature (sun, moon, and oceans). They used these precious gems for protection and guidance.
Archeologists have dug up talismans, ritualistic cups, and trinkets with crystals studded on them. This indicated that crystal healing was a big part of some ancient ideologies.
Flash forward to the present, crystals are still being used by numerous people to help them navigate life and can also protect and heal.
What Is Crystal Healing?
Crystal healing is an alternative therapy that is used to bring balance back into our lives. The healers believe that most of the problems in our lives occur because of an imbalance. This inequality may be in our inner nature or our surroundings.
Since we are all made up of vibrations, these vibrations have a tendency to go out of course. The crystals have ‘clear vibrations’ that can be used to stabilize the fluctuating ones inside of us. In other words, ‘they act like tuning forks’, that helps to bring harmony to the ‘very unstable energy field of the human body’.
The Crystal Mechanism and its Benefits
The energy in crystals have powerful vibrations. Our thoughts and intentions can manifest through these healing stones to create the life you want. There are specific types of crystals that are meant for different types of intentions. When looking for the right crystal, you can look for the one that calls out to you. Some say that the crystal actually chooses us, rather than us choosing them. When choosing one in person, you may notice that a particular crystal in your hand feels like a sensation of hot, cold, tingly or just a sense of calmness. If you feel this, then this crystal may be the one for you.
Below are some of my favorite crystals and ways in which each one can help you on your spiritual journey in life:
Amethyst – Sets the best intentions; alleviates stress from your life and restore calmness.
Carnelian – Acts as a mood stabilizer that helps us with depression and anxious feelings during hard times.
Rose Quartz – Boosts our self-esteem; a stone for every type of love including self, family and romantic. Opens your heart chakra to let love in.
Smoky Quartz – A grounding crystal that can center and balance you. It also protects you from negative vibrations and replaces that negativity with love and light.
Clear Quartz – Known as the “master healer”, this crystal magnifies your intentions when paired with any other crystal, and is used as a center stone in many crystal grids. When used alone, this powerful crystal can help improve your immune system. It can also help with migraines, motion sickness
Overall, crystals are beneficial in clearing the unwanted things and distractions in our lives, and can also help manifest our good intentions.
So take your time and introduce yourself to these magical crystals and you will soon find your perfect one to carry with you.
Please always remember that even though these crystals carry an abundance of power and have been proven to bring positivity and abundance into one’s life, they should not be a substitute for medical advice. If you have any concerns, whether physical or mental, you should always consult with a qualified medical professional.
