Crystals have been around longer than humans, and when shamans and spiritual guides found a way to harness their energies, people have benefited in various and exciting ways. We know modern healing crystals are related to the traditional ideas of chi and chakras, and crystals have energy that can resonate with vibrations in the human body. This means that they can have positive effects on us that can range from protection and harmony to prosperity and love.

Even though there isn’t a lot of scientific research to back up these claims about crystals, a significant number of people believe in their power to heal and provide balance, and there are some scientists like Dr. Marilyn Schlitz who have written about the positive effects of spirituality on health issues and healing. When exploring how to use crystals to get these benefits, it’s important to practice mindfulness, openness, and acceptance, since the mind has much more healing power than you might think.

Psychologists at Maryville University note how mental health has been tied to learning success, while better behavior as a result of these practices has also been beneficial for professionals in the workplace. This means that strengthening the body and mind through these meditative practices can positively impact your daily life — regardless of other people's beliefs.

Indeed, more and more Americans are turning to complementary and alternative medicine, including the use of these crystals to promote healing and general well-being. These stones won’t cost you a lot, and by making a small investment, you may end up getting big returns on your health. Think about what mood you’re in and where you want to be, and start from there. The effect these crystals can have might end up surprising you.
