Thereβs been aΒ recent uptick in Australian adults turning to whatβs known as complementary and alternative medicine. This includes everything from acupuncture and yoga to tai chi and even healing crystals.
In fact, youβve probably heard people talking about, and showing off these beautiful stones. But you may not know what they could offer you.
There are a number of different types of Crystals, each filled with their own healing abilities for the mind, body, and soul. Theyβre thought to promote the flow of good energy and help rid the body and mind of negative energy for physical and emotional benefits.
Historically speaking, Crystals are touted as ancient forms of medicine, with philosophies borrowed from Hinduism and Buddhism. However, itβs important to know that thereβs no scientific evidence to support the use of Crystals. Despite this, people are still drawn to their colours and beauty.
The key to indulging in this self-care experience is mindfulness, reflection, and acceptance. For instance,Β researchersΒ found that a personβs mind may have much more healing power than itβs given credit.
Even though there isnβt a great deal of scientific support of Crystals, a number of people swear by their powers. So, if youβre curious to give them a go, make sure to keep an open mind and check out what each stone can do for you.
