Crystal Healing

How do crystals work?

Crystals have a long tradition of being used for crystal healing. Each variety of crystal has a unique internal structure, which causes it to resonate at a certain frequency. It is this resonance that is said to give crystals their healing abilities. Applying this resonance in a coherent way can help to restore stability and balance to the bodies energy systems, stimulating the body's natural healing mechanisms.

Crystal therapy is a gentle non-invasive form of alternative healing that works holistically to harmonize the mind, body, emotions and spirit, helping to increase our feeling of well-being, neutralize negativity, lift depression and to help us to become integrated, whole beings.

Crystals used during Reiki Healing will help the healing and energy balancing. They will speed up the healing process.

LAYING ON OF STONES

The purpose of laying stones on to a person is to release, emotional, mental or spiritual blocks to well-being. The healer's role is to be comforting, supportive and non-judgemental, giving the client safety to release these emotions and talk. This is part of the healing process.

If the stone does not feels comfortable during the Reiki healing with crystals it should be moved or removed. A stone that feels good when first placed on the body can change when its energy has been absorbed. The practitioner and the client work together closely in this manner.

REIKI HEALING WITH CRYSTALS FOR CHAKRA BALANCING

One of the simplest ways to help balance the whole chakra system is to place a stone of the appropriate colour on each area. This will give each chakra a boost of its own vibration without altering its energies or the overall harmony of the system.

It is believed that the interaction between the stones and chakras will return the chakra into healthy vibration, therefore healing the part of the body affected.

Simply by placing a different beneficial stone on each of the seven chakras can be a general tonic to strengthen and tone up the entire system. If you lay your collection of stones out so that you can easily see them all you will find your attention goes to the best choice of stone for each chakra. It is a good idea to place a grounding stone, like smoky quartz, between the feet to act as an anchor.

 I Place the stones on the lowest chakra first, and move upwards then proceed with the Reiki healing session as I would normally do.

Crystals are always helpful when doing Reiki and I use them in each session. I sometimes will ‘bombard’ a crystal with Reiki healing and give it to the person to take home with them, so they can call on the Reiki energy from the crystal when needed.
