A beginner's guide to crystals


In times of uncertainty, many of us look for ways to be more mindful, to calm anxiety stress, so alternative therapies like crystal healing are coming to the fore. The concept of using crystals to heal has been around for centuries but, with celebrities such as Victoria Beckham speaking openly about their belief in the practice, it's had a more mainstream resurgence in recent years.

Crystal healing is a type of alternative therapy that involves using gemstones to bring balance to an individual's life and mind. Crystals are said to "have a stable and unchanging energy pattern, each with a unique frequency and energy field, or resonance" that gives them special properties, explains Judy Hall, in her work, The Little Book of Crystals. As a result, "they act like tuning forks," helping bring "harmony" to the "very unstable energy field of the human body".

The benefits of crystals
The proposed healing benefits of crystals predominantly surround areas of mental wellbeing; including feelings of increased tranquility, positivity and focus, as well as enhanced immunity and pain relief.

Individual crystals are also known to have their own special energies that align to different areas of your life, with their shape and colour - as well as their type - affecting their influence.
