There are times when as a little girl (or boy) when you have bent down to pick up a stone that has attracted itself to you by its size, colour or texture, whether it be smooth or rough, long or short.

A stone that is tactile seems to be favoured by males of all ages while the smoothness, colour and shape appear to be the one that females are drawn to.

Right from an early age the attraction of stones are used a comfort blanket, usually found in a boys pocket or a girl’s favourite purse.

Today in the modern world we live in, adults are leaning towards crystal healing as a method of bringing relief to aches and pains while recognising that the energy levels of the human body can be raised to bring about lasting benefits.

Healing properties crystals will match your requirements at different phases of your life. Spiritual enlightenment and material aspirations are always easier to fulfil if your mind and body is in good order.

Crystal healing with a stone of your choice will clear away negative energies; however, the stones you choose to work with need to be looked after.

To keep your crystal healing at its best place it in sea salt, or place it in the bath while you are in the shower. This allows the negative energies to trickle away down the plughole.

The left hand is the intuitive hand. A good stone that is used with crystal healing techniques works best if you have programmed it to suit you.

Surprisingly if your stone feels warmer you have your answer and the stone is ready to work.

The right hand is your protective hand in crystal healing; therefore if a stone becomes a little cooler it is telling you it can protect you, so you need to choose another healing one to help you with the onset of crystal healing.
