Crystal ElixirCrystal water bottles are being sold with a beautiful quartz crystal, rose quartz, amethyst, or other type of healing crystal anchored to the bottom of the bottle. The idea is, to fill the bottle with water, and drink it to absorb the energy of the crystal through the water we drink.
Water is effective at helping us to transfer the healing properties of the crystal into your body. The energy held in a crystal functions a lot like electricity, except on a much more subtle (and non-harmful!) frequency. Water is a conductor for that energy.
You can get the same effect without purchasing a special bottle. Before you start putting crystals in your drinking water, however, you must make sure they won’t react negatively to water. Some minerals will leach chemicals into the water, or become damaged, and you don’t want that.

Set your intention to connect your energies with the healing crystal you want to use. In your mind or out loud, tell the crystal what you need from it.

Crystal AltarYou don’t have to lie down on the floor with crystals all around you, especially when you still have things to do. Instead, you can designate a special spot in your house as your crystal altar. Your crystal altar represents your desire to bring peace and harmony to your life, and within yourself.
You can keep it super simple by placing a crystal in front of a picture of yourself, and state your intention in your mind, or out loud.
For example, if you want to bring more love into your life (any kind of love/love in general), place a rose quartz in front of your photo. State your intention, and visualize love in the form of soft light infusing into your photo.
Crystal TalismanHands down one of the easiest ways to tap into the healing energies of crystals, is to wear them. Crystals make for some beautiful pieces of jewelry -- no one will suspect that you’re using it for a special purpose unless you tell them.
First, ask yourself what you would like to heal. One of the best crystals for anyone, including beginners, is amethyst because it can help with a variety of things, including addiction and finding peace within oneself. It’s also a very commonly used stone in jewelry, for its beautiful shades of violet and lavender.
Once you’ve gotten the piece of jewelry you want to use as a talisman, do the 3-minute intention-setting ritual previously described. Put the piece of jewelry on, and trust that it will begin to work its magic on you.
Crystal healing does take a little bit of time, but after a while, you will see how much has changed in your life, for the better. The crystals will work on all levels of your being to bring harmony, happiness and a sense of balance to your life.
