CRYSTAL HEALING: Many people ask how crystals work and how they have effects on the body and mind. For almost a century science has shown that everything is made up of energy - people, rocks, trees, etc. In that sense it is possible to have a connection with other things around us, including crystals, as we are all made up of the same energy. Over thousands of years of handling, wearing and use, different crystals have become associated with different healing effects. If you are drawn to a certain crystal or stone it is because it resonates with you. The best way of choosing a crystal is to trust your own intuition and pick the crystal / crystals that you are most attracted to - you will most always find that when you then read the description for that crystal, your choice is the most appropriate for you. If you are unsure or have any questions, just ask for help. CLEANSING YOUR CRYSTAL: There are a number of ways to cleanse your crystal of energy it may have picked up before you receive it, some of these include: putting your crystal out overnight under a full moon passing the crystal through smoke from an incense or smudge stick placing your crystal on an amethyst or clear quartz cluster or piece of carnelian washing your crystal in salt water or under a running tap (be careful your crystal is not water soluble - avoid this method with selenite) use an energy cleansing spray
Once you have cleased your crystal it is ready to be programmed for the purpose which you use it. Hold it in your hand for a few minutes and think or say specifically what you need it for. Be as precise as you can.
