How to Use Crystals to Balance Personal Energy and Increase Well-Being
Crystals help to amplify, direct and balance the flow of life force in your body and environment according to Brenda Rosen, author of "Crystal Basics." Millions of years ago, hot gasses and mineral solutions rose to the surface of the earth from its molten core according to Mary Lambert, author of "Crystal Energy." As the gasses and mineral solutions cooled, atoms merged into specific patterns that formed three-dimensional lattices and formed the crystals we know today. This structure, according to Lambert, lets the crystals absorb, strengthen and transmit electromagnetic energy that can heal and energize a person.

Tips & Warnings
Remove negative energy at the end of each session using the breath cleansing method. Breathe deeply, focus your mind on removing any negativity from the crystal and relax while you hold the crystal in your hand. Say, "I cleanse this crystal with love."
