Healing Qualities of Gemstones

Crystals and gemstones can be used in several ways for healing purposes. You can wear the stone as jewelry or put it underneath your pillow so you can heal while you sleep.  You can also meditate with the crystal or gemstone by holding it in your receptive hand (usually your non-dominant hand, the one you do not write with) and closing your eyes, concentrate on what the stone is supposed to help with.....imagine yourself pulling the healing energy from the stone into your body.

 

NOTE:  This is not a replacement for traditional medical attention, but an addition.  It's effectiveness depends on the abilities of the user, and their belief in the Metaphysical.
