Adina: First of all, I would like to ask you and I would love to know what actually are
healing crystals?
Ashley: A healing crystal is generally
a crystal, which is a type of mineral, with a regularly repeating atomic
structure. And it's thought that this regularly repeating pattern, or this
crystalline blueprint is the reason that healing crystals work. So because
they have this perfect stable structure due to their repeating atomic pattern, when
those crystals are brought into the human energy field, which isn't always so
perfect or stable, it's thought that the human energy field will start to mimic
that perfect structure of the crystal - and will sort of take on that stable
vibration. Adina: So it's actually not just something that's in the mind, so it's
actually something that can be scientifically proven?
Is that true?
Ashley: My hope is that very soon western medicine and science will begin to see
the merit in crystal healing that's been used for thousands of years.
Now, it's not just the structure of the crystal
where the healing energy comes from. It has to be consciously directed with our
thought and our intention to really be effective. Otherwise, you know, you could
have a very large crystal that does you no good because that energy is not
consciously directed. So the other sort of piece of the puzzle is that by
putting our thought intention, or our healing energy, into the crystal
that that's where we get
the complete benefit from using the stones.
I am thankful that were sort of living in a time where because of things like
worldwide communication,
the message of alternative healing and holistic health is really getting out to
more and more people. So I think that many people at least have an open mind to
the possibility that these things may work, but of course there are people
occasionally who really don't believe in the healing power of stones at all. And,
you know, I've had some people say well it's really just,
you know, the placebo effect, it's mind over matter, and my answer to that is,
well, even if it is just your mind over matter doesn't that still speak to
the power of mind in our own healing? And that's really what's important is
making the changes. And if having the stone helps give you a visual cue or
reminder of what you're trying to work through in your life, than you know is it
really important whether the energy comes from within you or from within the
stone? As it's sort of my belief that it comes from both and the stone is helping
to amplify that energy. And once people sort of hear that, you know, sometimes
it opens them up just a little bit more. Not always, but sometimes. So it's my
hope that more and more people will sort of
realize the potential that healing stones really have.
