Energy Healing: Tips For Healing Through Sound And Color

June 24th, 2011

Throughout the world, certain colors and sounds are imbued with powers and emotions. More recent scientific evidence has shown that certain types of energy healing using sounds and colors are quite effective. Using soothing sounds and colors to calm down, and brighter, more energetic ones to rev up can be easy, natural ways to get in the right mood.

Certain sounds are soothing, while others are more jarring. Either can be appropriate depending on the circumstance. Soothing sounds are appropriate for when you are trying to sleep, relax, meditate, or calm down. They can help people deal with negative situations by relaxing them and giving them some more perspective on the situation.

More jarring sounds can stir certain creative inspirations, and give you energy or resonate with an angry mood. Artists often like to match their music to their mood, and that same mood comes out in whatever medium they employ. Some of the best art is made with strong emotions which can best be released in the presence of angry, jarring music and sounds.

The power of sound is easy to show. If you play a whale song or the tides going in or out, people inevitably become more relaxed. The repetitive, quiet sound brings inner calm. But if you play heavy metal, heads start nodding to the beat and feet start tapping. The response to this more jarring sound is to wind up and become more energetic and prepared for something to happen. » Read more: Energy Healing: Tips For Healing Through Sound And Color

Crystal Healing – Balancing The Mind With Crystals And Gemstones

June 24th, 2011

Crystal healing is a form of alternative healing, using crystals and gemstones. The idea behind it is that crystals are often said to help stimulate the healing process. As healing can be as much emotional as it is physical, this form of treatment has been used for headaches, insomnia and cancer.

The crystals are said to contain energy that can be transferred to restore health and fight against disease, as well as offer spiritual guidance. The argument some supporters of crystal healing make is that, whilst the stones do not cure disease directly, they can help to correct the underlying problems. Each healer has their own opinion, and some use the method in conjunction with other methods.

The main premise behind the need for crystal healing, is that illness occurs when there is an imbalance between a person and divine energy. This divine energy, or light, is believed by some healers to be the very foundation of universal creation. The crystals are said to help correct this imbalance between us and our universe.

The gemstones are applied to certain energy centers, known as chakras. They are said to draw light and color to the aura of the body, creating a flow of energy. This flow is often thought to promote a sense of healing through the re-balancing of the body’s energy.

Some of the better crystal therapists have been thought to have an instinct which can detect the exact location in the body where the energy is being blocked. That means they can place the crystals on the parts of the body that will promote healing most effectively. The stones are of varying sizes and colors and each promotes a distinct healing quality. » Read more: Crystal Healing – Balancing The Mind With Crystals And Gemstones
