The Story
4 MadaCrystals Crystals aren’t just for hippies—they’ve been used for ages to heal ailments and generally provide good vibes. Belief in the super natural power of rocks, that they can heal, provide wealth, or protect, goes back beyond recorded history.
History is full of legends and lore about the mystical and magical power of stones, including legends from Atlantis, Eg ypt, Sumeria, Babylonia, the Hindu culture, Ancient Greece and Rome. Nearly every culture has its own beliefs about specific stones, and those beliefs are often tied to that culture’s legends, lore, history, geog raphy, and spiritual practices. Up to the 19th century, crystals were commonly used as medicine against illnesses. Natural gemstones were laid on the aff licted area of the body or minerals were crushed and taken inter nally. Like essential oils, crystals have a variety of uses and applications, ranging from insomnia treatment to pain relief. Some stones and crystals are said to align with our 7 chakras, and heal maladies in the associated areas of our bodies. They vibrate at frequencies similar to the body chakras, which helps to align their energ y. Since crystals work in the energetic realm to adjust imbalances and heal, they can also increase your energ y or bust a bad mood.

Crystal Care
Make sure to cleanse your new crystals when you bring them home. You’ll also want to cleanse the crystals that absorb negative energ y on a regular basis. Keep your stones dust-free, and give them a wash in salt water if needed. Cleansing the accumulated energies of the stones can be done by placing them in a bowl of dry salt for a few hours, by setting them outside over night under the high-octane energ y of the full moon, or by smudging them with sage or palo santo smoke.
