Healing Crystals and
gemstones - a genre of alternative medicine as dated
as the concept of time is to humankind, might just
change the way city dwellers of the 90's think of
alternative healing. An old-age belief that's
been recently revived by the emergence of 'New Age'
followers, the use of crystals and gemstones have
been tried
and tested - to no avail of any consistency in their
healing patterns. Results vary in accordance to
individual users. Although no guarantee of any
permanent cure or even improvement can be clearly
justified, there are occasions as claimed by users,
of which certain stones have helped to effect
positive improvement on many different health
conditions. Some popular gemstones include
| Agate |

It is often noted that all
crystals and gemstones 'vibrate' on their own
individual frequency. In that respect, they are said
to be similar to human beings. For one to benefit
effectively from the healing properties of stones,
it is necessary to choose a stone that is of a
similar ' frequency to your body's. Of course,
individual methods of choosing crystals and
gemstones vary from person to person but will
normally include the following procedures:
- Close your eyes and
quietly meditate for a few moments. Then open your
eyes very quickly and pick up the very first stone
to which your eye becomes naturally drawn to.
- Run your hand (either the
left or the right depending on which you prefer)
over all the stones available for selection. You
will soon discover that one stone will 'stick' to
your hand as if it is tacky or surrounded with glue.
This is your stone.
- Intuitively you will
instinctively 'known' which stone you should choose
and which is 'right' for you. You might feel as if
the stone is jumping up and down shouting. "Me! Me!
Me! Choose me!"
- Or you might sense or
even see a strong crystalline white light radiating
from the stone and attracting you like a magnet.
- Should you happen to be a
competent dowser then you should be able to select
the most appropriate stone by using you individual
dowsing techniques.
The method of wearing these
stones is also important. Wear it as close to the
skin as possible. Otherwise, if desired, it can be
held in the hand while you are watching television
or reading your favorite book.
