Healing Crystals To Free Yourself From Stress and Negativity
Crystals have been known for their healing properties since ancient times.
Crystals are rock formations that were formed by the earth over thousands of years. They have many different uses aside from their common uses for decorations. And crystals are still used in radios today!
The first radios that were invented used crystals to transmit radio waves and crystals are still used in radios today! Quartz watches also use crystals to regulate their movement.
The word “crystal” comes from krustallos, an Ancient Greek word which means both “rock crystal” and “ice”.
Crystals are formed when liquids from the earth cools and evaporates causing their molecules to create tight chemical bonds, which then form the crystal.
Throughout history, crystals have been used as a source of healing power. You may have seen pictures of ancient cultures, such as the Egyptians, Mayans, and Sumerians, having their bodies, jewelry, and buildings, adorned with crystals. Because they knew that healing crystals can align, clear, and transform your energy, spirit and physical health.
Healing crystals have thousands, and even millions of years of the Earth’s history preserved within them. Once you come into contact with these crystals, they can connect you to the earth by harnessing the energy and life giving elements of the universe.
Healing Crystals and Their Meanings
Healing crystals are crystals with healing properties and they can be used to heal certain diseases, reduce stress levels, and clear negativity. Because a crystal acts as a channel for healing energy, directing the positive healing energy of the universe to flow into your body, causing the negative energy to be drawn out.
As you know, everything is made up of energy. Therefore, healing crystals and the cells in your body are both made up of the same kind of energy.
When certain crystals are placed over certain parts of your body, your energy transforms, vibrates, pulses, moves, and shifts, in accordance with the properties and energetic signature of the crystal.
