WHAT IS CRYSTAL HEALING?
Crystal healing is an alternative healing modality that uses crystals to create a shift, re-balance and harmonize the mind, body, emotions and spirit. It has been around for thousands of years, and commonly involves the laying of crystals on the body in accordance with energy centers known as chakras. Sometimes, the crystals are held in the hands. It’s a form of vibrational medicine that allows the body to resolve energetic imbalances, in order to promote positivity, well-being and alignment to purer consciousness.
WHY DOES IT WORK?
Science has shown crystals emit frequencies. At their core, crystals are really vibrating energy. If we look at a crystal under a microscope, the atoms, protons and so on are actually moving particles of energy. Each crystal has a unique vibrational resonance and their unique qualities are due to their mineral content, their sacred geometry and the color frequency they emit. And crystal healing is based on the principle that we are more than just this physical body – that we are also made up of energy too, and that all things are really energy at their root. Because everything is made up of energy, thoughts, feelings, diseases and conditions also have an energy vibration or resonance of their own. When you hold or work with a crystal that represent love, it gets activated and you will feel its energy vibration. Your energy starts to interact with it. Your vibration matches it and you align with it. And crystals are of a purer and higher vibration, as they are perfect geometric physical manifestations of light – crystals are light in a physical form. Therefore, when placed on the body or held in the hand, crystals can channel light and energy of a higher frequency to create a ‘shift’ and to promote self-healing, by shaking up, transmuting, absorbing, diffusing and clearing the energetic blockages with you and around you.
