Since Covid, many of us have looked for ways to feel grounded, to calm anxiety and soothe stress. This has brought about a rise of interest in alternative therapies such as crystal healing.

The use of crystals to heal has been around for centuries

“What I have seen these last few years especially is this deeper need to connect,” says crystal healer Emma Lucy Knowles. “I really feel the rise of social media has helped more people rediscover a sense of community as well as a sense of confidence in who they are. But on the other, we have become reliant on that fix, that energy hit from a small computer in our hand that never really fulfils us fully with that nourishing connection that the heart, soul and mind need. So, we seek deeper and scroll further searching in the wrong spaces.”

“Crystals allow us, quite effortlessly, to move fresh energy into the being, offering internal connectivity that enhances your external connectivity,” Knowles says. “More and more people are tuning into how that energy can be beneficial.”

What exactly is crystal healing?

Judy Hall, in her work, The Little Book of Crystals, writes that crystals are said to “have a stable and unchanging energy pattern, each with a unique frequency and energy field, or resonance” that gives them special properties. As a result, “they act like tuning forks,” helping bring “harmony” to the “very unstable energy field of the human body”.

Quite simply, crystal healing involves using gemstones to bring balance to an individual’s life and mind.

Benefits of crystals

The healing benefits of crystals surround areas of mental well being such as feelings of increased tranquility, positivity and focus and enhanced immunity and natural pain relief.

Individual crystals are also known to have their own special energies that can align to different areas of our lives, with their shape and color – as well as their type – affecting their influence.
