Wearing Crystals on the body is thought to promote physical, emotional, and spiritual healing. Crystals work with the energy centers (chakra) in the body to remove energy blockages and heal the mind, body, and spirit. They raise the vibration and renew energy which ultimately transforms your well-being.
Since crystals are all naturally extracted from the earth they retain the energies of the sun, moon, and ocean (all natural healing energies). Placing crystals on our body or wearing a crystal bracelet on our wrist allows them to emit those positive vibrations into our mind and body.
By combining these powerful vibrations with our own clear intentions, crystals become an excellent manifestation tool creating a clear connection between your thoughts, energy, and your desired transformation. This alignment gives you the power to manifest lasting change across all areas of your life, no matter what your goals are.
Crystals absorb the negative energy in the environment so it is important to keep them clean, cleansed, and charged so you can benefit from their healing properties.
Maintaining Your Crystal:
1. Store in a clean, dry place
Our crystals come with a reusable, velvet pouch. Use it to store and protect your crystal when it’s not being worn.
2. Keep your crystal dry
Do not wear your crystal in water. The minerals and chlorine added to most tap water and pools can harm the natural stones. If you accidentally wear your bracelet in water or submerge it in water, dry it off right away.
3. Take off your crystal before working out
Our crystals are great for everyday wear, but to avoid scratching the natural stones, we suggest that you take off your crystal before doing anything really active.
4. Keep your crystal away from harsh chemicals
Sweat, harsh soaps, lotions, and cleaning products can cause discoloration and build-up between the crystals. If you have to clean, apply lotion and/or oils, makeup, hair products, or perfume take off your crystal until you are done.
5. Clean with warm water and a mild soap
If you happen to notice a build-up on or between the crystals, you may clean your crystal with warm water and a mild soap. Simply wet a soft towel, add a small amount of soap, and gently scrub the crystal. Rinse under warm water and dry with a soft cloth.
Cleansing Your Crystal
The more you wear your crystal the more energy it collects so try to cleanse it at least once per month. Your intuition is powerful too so if yours feel energetically heavier or disconnected from you, it’s time to cleanse.
There are several ways to charge your crystal. Let your intuition guide you and choose what’s best for you.
1. Smudging
Sage and Palo Santo have many healing properties and have been used for a long time to clear negative energy. To cleanse your crystal, you can burn either Sage or Palo Santo and allow the smoke to run through the stones for a few minutes.
2. Moonlight
Leave your crystal under the moonlight (full moon) for at least 6 hours.
3. Sound
Crystal singing bowls, crystal pyramids, tuning forks, ad tingsha bells let off powerful vibrations when they are played and they have the ability to balance the energy of crystals.
4. Use other Crystals
Larger crystals such as selenite, quartz, or amethyst have the ability to cleanse and purify other crystals without losing their own energy. Simply lay your crystal on the top of one for at least 6 hours.
5. Visualization/Meditation
If you don’t have any of the above resources, visualization can be a powerful and simple way to cleanse your crystal on a daily basis also.
Before you start, take a few moments to ground and balance your energy. You can do this by meditating with your crystal for a few minutes or by doing a quick breathing exercise (i.e. take 10 deep breaths). Hold your crystal in your hand and visualize your hands filled with a sparkling white light. See this light growing bigger and bigger, penetrating into the crystals and purifying them of all negative energy. Envision this light flushing the crystals of all impurities. Continue this process until you feel a noticeable shift in the stone’s energy.
6. Brown Rice
Brown rice is not just for eating. It can also be used to draw out the negative energies of crystals. Simply fill a small bowl with dry brown rice and lightly bury your crystal beneath the grains for 24 hours. Once complete, dispose of the rice right away. Do not cook or consume it as it has absorbed the energy you were trying to clear.
