Crystal Healing

Stone Medicine

Indigenous Shamans work with crystals and gemstones in their healing practices, rituals & ceremonies.

Through the ancient art of ‘Stone Medicine’ we can heal mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Crystals can help us to increase focus and clarity, silence anxiety and depression, curb addictions, build confidence, improve our communication skills, make better life choices, heal relationship traumas, and even get sounder sleep.

Shamans refer to the practice of placing crystals on someone’s body for healing purposes as “the laying on of stones.” We often hear crystals referred to as “New Age,” but in truth, crystal healing is an ancient, age-old form of medicine. Crystal healing is woven into the threads of some of our most historic civilizations; The Mayans, Celtic Druids, African Bushmen, ancient Egyptians, Siberian Sami, Australian Aborigines, Native Americans, and Incas. All cultures traditionally used crystals in their healing practices as a holistic, noninvasive, vibrationally based system of energetic healing. Sparkly crystals, river rocks, polished stones, or faceted gems are laid at precise locations on and/or around a person’s body to facilitate healing.

Crystal healing is an ancient, age-old form of medicine by Native Americans and other Indigenous cultures across the earth. Everything that Great Spirit has created and given to us has life and a spirit in it. This includes stones, crystals and gems. They are the oldest spirit-form on earth, long before humans. The Indigenous know that these stone people are here to offer healing to all humans. All ancient cultures traditionally used crystals as a form of vibrational, energetic healing.

Shamans believe that everything starts on an energetic level and then manifests mentally, physically, or emotionally. Negative energy, or “dis- ease,” can show itself through physical illnesses and behavioral issues, which are the final manifestation of ancestral, emotional, environmental, karmic, mental, physiological, psychological, or spiritual imbalances. Crystal healing helps restore the body to its natural equilibrium.

Shamans believe that this practice treats the physical body as well as the LEF (Luminous Energy Field) around the body. As crystals interact with people and the physical and energetic space surrounding us, they can absorb, defuse, direct, detoxify, focus, and shift our energy.

In this context, “healing” means bringing balance to the mind, body, spirit, and physical space.

These POWER STONES are the ones that you feel the greatest connection towards. A stone is the right stone if it speaks to you & is screaming, “Pick me, pick me.” Power Stones may come to you through teachers & mentors, healing practitioners, metaphysical stores, friends, or you might find one on a hike or after an extensive Google search. Please remember to ask permission from the crystal & the land that it is yours to work alongside.

“The native Cherokee used garnet; to them it represented blood, and women used it for fertility, childbirth, menstrual issues and everything associated with a woman cycling with nature. Also power, strength, vitality, essence … the ability to be strong in battle,” aliveness: “Garnet is considered one of the most physically supportive stones of the entire mineral kingdom. It’s amazing for rebuilding and restrengthening after depletion or disease.”
