Crystal Healing – A Beginner’s Guide to the Power of Crystals
The Healing Power of Crystals
Crystal healing has been used for centuries as crystals have been heralded for their healing properties, and with good reason. These natural wonders possess a unique energy that can bring balance and harmony to our lives, and help us on our healing journey.
How Crystal Healing Works
Crystal healing is based on the belief that crystals have the ability to interact with the body’s energy system, also known as the chakra system.
The chakras are like vibrant wheels of light, representing the convergence of our physical, emotional, and spiritual energies. Each chakra serves as a gateway to personal growth and self-awareness, guiding us towards balance, healing, and enlightenment. As we journey through these energy centers, we unearth the potential to release blockages, embrace our inner strength, and cultivate a harmonious existence.
Each crystal is believed to possess a specific energy frequency that resonates with different aspects of our being. By placing or wearing crystals in the vicinity of our bodies, we can tap into their healing vibrations and restore balance to our energy fields.
The Benefits of Crystal Healing
Here are just a few of the many benefits of incorporating crystals into your self-care routine.
- Stress relief: Crystals can help soothe and calm the mind, reducing feelings of stress and anxiety. Amethyst, rose quartz, and selenite are especially effective for this purpose.
- Physical healing: Certain crystals, such as black tourmaline and garnet, have the ability to alleviate physical pain and promote healing in the body.

Who am I?
I’m Gayle Maree, creator of 6 Dimensions of Healing, author, mother, Past Life Therapist and Spiritual Counselor for over 23 years.
Someone once told me (a well-respected mentor) that people need “experts” to live a life they value… and I didn’t believe them.
I thought everybody could do it on their own because I did. I figured out what didn’t work in my life and then I changed it. Actually, I changed me. And it was a LOT of work!
Not because I was trying to impress those that told me I had a ‘bad attitude’ or I had something to prove to people who thought I was lousy at pretty well everything, but because there were aspects of me that even I didn’t like. I wanted improvements in me and my life.
Change Versus Comfort
It was obvious to me that if I didn’t make changes I could expect more of the same in my life as before. The same things that didn’t work, the same relationships that my parents had.
I wanted more. Mostly, I wanted my kids to be proud of me. Damn it, I wanted to be proud of myself.
So, I set about what would be a continuous, amazing journey.
I’ve been with my Spiritual Soulmate over 30 years now and we still work on the relationship, we work on improving us, because we know that whatever we want, to get it we need to be different to how we were.
And I listen so much more now because I value the wisdom of my non-physical guides who have been with me for as long as I can remember.
Now it’s your turn
This is the same path I used to make the changes that led to a valued and prosperous life. So much more than I ever imagined.
The path is laid out in our book 6 Dimensions of Healing
