What are healing crystals?
Alternative medicine has become popular lately.
Crystals are a major part of this phenomenon.
People turn to crystals for their perceived healing abilities.
Alternative healing experts claim crystals help heal your mind, body, and soul.
They are used to help your mind get rid of negative energy, which is expected to boost
your physical and mental health.
Have you ever tried alternative therapy?

Do crystals work?
There’s no straight answer to this question.
Simply put, the healing power of crystals is in “the eyes of the beholder”.
And what do we mean by that?
Neuroscientists and psychologists believe these stones can work for you but for different
reasons.
And the reason is the placebo effect.
The act of being in-charge of your destiny, boosts your confidence and mood.
Your ability to cope improves drastically when you start believing in your own power.
In short, the placebo effect is the effect accompanying a treatment, but not directly
due to the treatment itself.
It’s the power of your subconscious mind that chooses to believe everything is improving.
There are no scientific studies to prove the effectiveness of crystals except one study
performed in 2001.
This particular study asked participants to answer a questionnaire designed to test their
belief in “paranormal” phenomena.
Next up, participants were asked to meditate holding either a real crystal, or a counterfeit
one made of glass.
When the participants were asked about their experiences while meditating, both the real
and fake crystals reportedly produced similar sensations.
Placebo effects can be pretty powerful!
If you choose to believe something will make you feel better, it will REALLY help you no
matter what others say.
Even physicians recommend using placebo treatments to help their patients.
Most consider the practice of recommending placebos as ethically permissible.
So by any means, if you love crystals, keep loving them.
They’ll help you therapeutically if your belief is strong.
There’s another study proving that your mind has far more healing capabilities than
it’s credited for.
So let’s move ahead to different types of crystals.
But make sure you keep an open mind.
