Crystals are rocks with physical properties, such as the particular arrangement or formation of atoms. They influence light refraction, electrical charge, and so on. The focus of crystal healing is on these properties and the way in which they affect the body’s vibratory as well as electrical charge and functioning. “These vibrations and frequencies can also be understood as qi or vital energy that makes up any living entity,” states Jenelle Kim, who is an expert in Chinese medical practices, as well as the formulator and creator of JBK Wellness Labs.
How Do Healing Crystals Work?
The theory behind the healing of crystals is that it influences an individual in two ways by way of vibration as well as mental attitude.
Vibrational Medicine
The 1970s were the time the IBM scientists Marcel Vogel invented” vibrational medicine” in the 1970s “vibrational medicine,” referring to the notion that healing by using crystals can alter the frequencies of the cells of the body to match the energy of the crystal being used. “Crystals have a similar wavelength to the human body, which means they vibrate at the same tone as humans and can enhance the body’s natural healing [process],” Dr. Kim.
The holistic chiropractor from Los Angeles Alexandra Trevisan further clarifies “As humans, we are able to work within this scale of energy that can be either ascending or declining. Imagine excitement and love at the top, and hate and fear at the bottom of the scale. Healing crystals usually contain one or more of the frequencies that are at the top energy scale (love or clarity, as well as hope) or block energy coming from the lower end of the energetic scale (anger or despair, anger or jealousy).”
Mindset
Crystal healing also draws in mental power in a manner that could be more potent than the enhancement of energy vibrations. Through the ages the religious and poets considered crystals to symbolize purity and joy, as well as faith and the finest quality. Crystals were used to inspire, dedication, and inspiration.
Stanford Researchers agree attitude is an essential aspect in healing and overall health. The intention-based approach of crystal healing – which is similar to the approach developed through mindfulness meditation – can aid in improving our immune system. It can also help improve focus emotional processing, stress reduction and the regulation of our nervous system.
How Do You Use Healing Crystals?
There are many ways to use healing crystals for healing such as meditation, to decorations and more.
Meditation
Holding or gazing at the crystal of intent, emotion, mantra, or emotion is an easy and effective way to return to your practice of meditation anytime your thoughts wander. “On a more practical level, they serve as a grounding tool,” says Trevisan.
Wearing
Many crystal healers suggest applying crystal spheres to your skin or on your clothing to reap the most benefits of the theory that vibrational healing can be beneficial. Trevisan is a prime example. She puts crystals on clients’ bodies–“on the chakra that is also known as an energy center”–while she assists the crystals.
Decor
Shanise Spruill is an holistic practitioner certified by the Institute of Integral Medicine and the creator of JOHARI and LOU Artisan Soul Stones, she suggests including crystals in your décor to “maintain healthy feng shui within your home.”
Spa Treatments and Wellness
A lot of holistic health professionals make use of crystals to treat facials, massages as well as chiropractic adjustments.
