Crystal Healing

Working with Crystals

There are many ways to work with a crystal to benefit from its healing properties.  Simply get to know your stone at first, and find your way by trying the methods that ‘make sense’ and appeal to you.

Carry a crystal with you

– in your pocket or purse, to have the energy with you, and to hold the stone occasionally.


Sleep near a crystal

– either under your pillow or at the bedside, to receive its resonance when you are asleep and receptive.

Wearing a crystal

– either in a cage, as jewellery (or for ladies, tucked into the bra) to benefit from direct skin contact with the crystal.


Chakra placement of crystals

– Chakras, according to traditional Indian’s methods of healing, are centres of energy within every body.  They are like power points for the different aspects of our physical, mental and emotional wellbeing.  We have shown the corresponding chakra for each crystal on our website, which is the one that has the associated colour and or healing property.  When placed over the chakra point, the crystal will resonate to rebalance and support you on the aspects associated.  For example, for inner wisdom, visual disturbance or ear afflictions choose a Third Eye chakra stone and lie with it placed in between your eyebrows.  The action of the crystal will be sensed as a warmth or tingle, also it may induce mental impressions such as colour or visualisation.  It can also release suppressed emotions, allowing sighs and tears to flow.  Refer to our Chakra Chart for more information.


Making a crystal elixir

– in a water filter jug, or in bottled spring water, left to stand for an hour, making energised water.


Crystal Healing placements, grids & layouts

– This is an extension to single stone chakra placement, using a variety of crystals in tumble, points and wands, arranged over and around a person in a specific pattern to suit their state of wellbeing.  For example, clear quartz points may be place around a chakra stone to amplify its action.  For more information, there are many books available that explain this further, and provide suggested layouts. 


Meditate
with a crystal

– holding the crystal in cupped hands, or lying down with it placed on your brow, or held to the area of your body that feels ‘right’.  This method can bring an inner peace and understanding of how the crystal is working with you, as you may sense it in one particular chakra area.
