Crystal healing works with crystals, gemstones, and minerals – all of which have wonderful energies to include in your life and around your living and working space. These products set the space to positive natural frequencies which is especially good today when the stress of modern living is bringing us back to a valuing of natural products, and often necessitates protection from the many artificial frequencies of our modern technology.
Often used interchangeably, the items included under the title “crystal healing” do differ technically. A basic definition: mineral is the most inclusive term; some minerals are beautiful and precious so are called gemstones. Some but not all gemstones are composed of a chemical substance whose molecules are arranged in a regular geometric pattern which makes them a crystal. In addition, there are organic non-mineral substances informally included in the category of “crystal healing.” These include lapis lazuli, amber, jet and petrified materials such as wood, bone, sea creatures and plants.
Crystal healing is a subtle energy discipline. Its base is the knowledge that crystals, gemstones and minerals have special properties that can assist humans to maintain health and balance in their lives. There are literally thousands of crystal healing products available for you to use, on Crystal Life’s website. You can see the specimens themselves in the Healing Crystals area and view jewelry made of healing crystals in the Jewelry with Purpose area. Check out our many informative articles on healing crystals throughout our library and in our blogs; and also specialized posts on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Tumblr, and Pinterest.
