In our chaotic world, we often struggle to sustain time for ourselves, leading to stress, anxiety and negativity. Fortunately, there exist techniques to address these problems, one of which is the use of healing crystals.
Healing crystals are rare, beautiful and semi-precious gemstones that are believed to possess multiple physical, mental and spiritual benefits when embraced by humans. Astrologers believe that crystals promote the flow of good energy while dispelling negativity from the body. These are naturally occurring gems believed to contain the wisdom of Earth, as they have existed for millions of years on Earth, harnessing the energies of the sun, moon and oceans to enhance our well-being. Available in different shapes, sizes, colours and each crystal possesses a unique property that aligns with various human needs.
Healing with crystals
Healing occurs through transformation or unblocking of energy. Crystals have been employed since ancient times for relieving stress, dispelling negative energies, enhancing focusing and creativity and facilitating spiritual growth. Remarkably, the use of healing crystals has gained resurgence in just the last decade, all thanks to social media and Gen Z celebrities. But have you ever pondered the mechanism behind the magical effects of these small, tiny and inert objects? What are the healing properties they acquire?
Moreover, it’s worth noting that there is no science backing their power of healing, treating or curating medical conditions. Still, they are widely used for relaxing and attracting positivity. We will try to understand the mechanism behind their purported healing properties:
Acts as a power holder – Crystals serve as a power hold, enabling the exchange of energies, and avoiding you from negative influences and individuals. They also facilitate the cleansing of one’s state and align the body chakras. The crucial thing is that one should be aware of the intentions behind their action when working with crystals.
Vibrational resonance – The core concept in healing crystals is that each crystal has its own unique vibrational frequency, which interacts with distinct energy fields (chakras) within the human body. When a crystal’s frequency resonates with the frequency of a human body, it is believed to balance and harmonise their energy, resulting in uplifting our mood, mind and health considerably.
Mindfulness and meditation – Crystals are often promoted as a tool for meditation. The act of selecting, holding and gazing upon it during the meditation helps us to connect with our inner-self. This in turn, fosters focus, peace, calm, concentration and balance in one’s life.
Energy flow – As we know, the human body has an energy system divided into different ‘chakras’. Crystals are thought to interact with these ‘chakras’ and enhance the overall well-being and energy flow throughout the body.
Helps in attaining manifestation – Crystals are believed to resonate at the same frequency as humans, maximising our inherent abilities. Whatever you manifest or seek, they seem to assist in realising our desires and manifestations.
