What do crystals and Craniosacral Therapy have in common?
ā”ļø Energy.
Craniosacral Therapy is largely physical - we're gently moving and adjusting the bones, muscles, and fascia to release restrictions. But there is a significant energetic component to it as well. The energy the body releases during these physical adjustments is, to the trained practitioner, palpable. We also feel for and assess the energy present at the body's main energy centers, or chakras, to get a sense for which areas of the body need our attention most.
The same goes for crystals. They are each unique physical products of the planet we live on, forged by geological heat and pressure, magma cooling, extreme water temperature changes, or solution precipitation. But each of them, having unique physical compositions, have unique energetic characteristics as well.
To back up a bit, I think it's important to mention that we're all energy - everything on this planet is energy. Everything in our world is made up of atoms, each of which carries energy; it's stored in their mass, their subatomic forces, and the motion and position of their electrons. And emotion, for example, is energy in motion.
To someone who is sensitive to feeling energy, both their own and the energy in the world around them, the unique energy of each type of crystal can be felt as well.
And whether or not you're sensitive to energies outside of your own, the energetic and often healing properties of crystals can be transferred to you by proximity. For example, by wearing one, by having one on your desk, or by having one (or a few) tucked inside your pocket.
But if the energy component of crystals still feels a bit "woo woo", they are undeniably beautiful and magnificent products of our earth that can add a little of the natural world to our outfits or to our homes.
