What is Crystal Healing Therapy

What is Crystal Healing?

Spiritual healing as taught by the JCPF charity is a technique that can be used exclusively for crystal healing. Crystals are known to have distinctive energies –they are a constant through which the healer can project healing energies.  Crystals can act as amplifiers of spiritual energies and different crystals have different properties that can focus particular forms of healing energy - just as light passing though coloured glass produces colour so the healing energy takes on the characteristics of the crystal which is known to help heal specific complaints.

Carrying a crystal will also enhance your of self-healing abilities and specific crystals may help you to overcome specific complaints.  Crystals influence the subtle body - the energy body that caries our life force (known as the vital force, or Prana or Chi). This life force is particularly focused at energy centres called chakras. By placing crystals on these chakras areas the healing effect of our system is boosted to bring better health and well being. Records from ancient Egypt show that crystals were used as they have been in the Indian Ayurvedic medicine traditions. and in traditional Chinese medicine. These traditions are over five thousand years old.

Amethyst and quartz are the most popular "New Age" stones and can be used in a number of ways. It's important to thoroughly wash your crystal after purchase to remove any impressions that its "picked up" from other people who have handled it. Once "cleansed'', you "programme" it for a particular use. This is done by holding the stone in your hand and projecting thoughts to it. The crystal is said to absorb your telepathic thoughts and will, once programmed, act as an amplifier of your psychic and psychological powers.
