Healing Crystals
A growing number of Americans have tried some form of complementary and integrative medicine.
This can include practices from acupuncture, massage, yoga, tai chi, and healing crystals, like the Amethyst Healing Stone.
Why use healing crystals?
Heling Crystals
There are several different types of crystals. Some people believe they have healing abilities for the mind, body, and soul.
Many ancient cultures — including ones in Egypt, Greece, and China — believed that crystals have healing properties.
Some people claim that crystals promote the flow of good energy and help rid your body and mind of negative energy for physical and emotional benefits. They believe certain crystals benefit your sleep, help you manifest your desires, and add an additional healing element to reiki.
But it’s important to note that almost no scientific evidence supports the use of crystals or other forms of energy healing.

How to select your crystal
First things first: Identify what you feel you’re missing before looking into what the stones can provide you. This will help you determine what’s happening within yourself before depending on outside sources.
From there, just let your intuition choose what’s best for you.
Whether a crystal catches your eye or you feel a pull toward one, your inner subconscious can help guide you to the crystal that’s right for you.
Once it’s picked out, you can create the connection you need.
