Uma uke waba sekhonsathini ye-Phish noma uhambahamba ezindaweni zama-hippie njenge-Haight-Ashbury 'hood e-San Francisco noma e-Massachusetts' Northampton, uyazi ukuthi amakristalu awayona into entsha. Futhi nakuba bungekho ubufakazi besayensi obusekela izimangalo zabasekeli babo (ngokwezwi nezwi, ngimbe ngijule, futhi kukhona i-zilch), umqondo uphikelela wokuthi a) amakristalu ama-AF amahle futhi b) abantu bazozama noma yini kanye ukuze bazizwe bengcono, ikakhulukazi ngokucwazimula, izinto ezicwebezelayo ezibonakala kwizitudiyo zeyoga nasezintombini ezipholile ze-Instagrams.

Ngingenalo ulwazi lokuthi isihogo amakristalu ambalwa angenza kanjani ngizizwe ngingcono, ngacela usizo lukaLuke Simon, omunye wabasunguli beMaha Rose Center for Healing eGreenpoint, eBrooklyn. (Okuhlobene: Yini Ephakeme Ngamanzi Afakwe yiCrystal?) Isikhungo sinikeza ukubulawa kwezinsizakalo zezempilo eziphelele kubandakanya iReiki, i-acupuncture, i-hypnosis, izindawo zokugeza ezinomsindo nokuphulukiswa kwe-crystal. Kukhona nesitolo esihle esigcwele amakristalu, imihlobiso yasekhaya ekhuthazayo, nezinye izesekeli namatshe ayigugu ahlukahlukene. Futhi kufanele ukhumule izicathulo zakho lapho ungena ngaphakathi. Amaphuzu wodwa aleyo vibe ebandayo.

Ngemuva kokukhahlela ama-Nikes ami, uSimon wangichazela izisekelo zamakristalu nokuphulukiswa kwe-crystal. "Amakristalu angamanani aqinile akhiwe ngezindlela eziphindayo zezimo zejometri," esho. Lapho zibekwe emzimbeni wakho, ngenkathi uzibambe, ngenkathi zibukiswa ekhaya lakho, noma ngisho nalapho zizipholele ephaketheni lakho, “zisebenza njengemigudu yokuphulukisa, evumela ukupholisa, ukuphulukisa. amandla okugeleza emzimbeni njengoba amandla amabi ephuma."

Uthi amakristalu anamandla okudlidliza. "Amakristalu anezinga eliphezulu kakhulu nelinembile lokudlidliza, ngakho-ke asetshenziswa kakhulu kubuchwepheshe besimanje," ezintweni ezifana namakhompiyutha nomakhalekhukhwini, ukusiza ukuguqula amandla emishini abe amasignali kagesi, uSimon uyangitshela. Izazi zokuphulukisa zikholelwa ukuthi amakristalu angakwazi ukuthola ukudlidliza “ezikhungweni zamandla” zomzimba womuntu, noma ama-chakra, ahambisana nezindlala zethu ze-endocrine, futhi-ngenxa yezakhiwo zawo ezifanayo zokudlidliza-asiza ekukhipheni ukungabi nandaba.

Uma ubuza udokotela, noma kunjalo, uzokutshela ukuthi umzimba awunazo izikhungo zamandla futhi akukho nhlobo ukuthi amakristalu angakwazi ukuphulukisa noma yiluphi uhlobo lokugula kwengqondo noma ngokomzimba.

Ngaphandle kokushoda kwesayensi, ngangizimisele ukunikeza amakristalu i-try-ngiyayithanda i-yoga, ngijabulela ukuzindla (ungeke kanjani, ngohlu lwayo olungapheli lwezinzuzo?), Futhi ngaqala ukwenza i-acupuncture ngineminyaka eyi-14. sizoqhubeka, uSimon wangikhombisa ikristalu ngayinye futhi wachaza imininingwane yabo ye-metaphysical. Isibonelo, kukhona i-quartz, okuthiwa iyitshe elinamandla kakhulu, elisiza ekuhlungeni iziphazamiso kodwa futhi lingasetshenziswa ukukhulisa noma imaphi amanye amandla ekristalu. Bese kuthi kube ne-amethiste, evame ukusetshenziselwa izigaxa ezinkulu ezikhaleni njengokuhlobisa ngoba idala umuzwa wokulinganisela, ukuzola nokuthula okulungele ikhaya.

Lapho ngimbuza ukuthi ikhona yini i- "starter kit" yamakristalu umuntu angasebenza ngawo, wachaza ukuthi akulula kangako, futhi, cha, akufanele nje uthenge isikhwama samakristalu ku-Amazon. "Angikaze ngithenge i-crystal ngaphandle kokuyithinta futhi ngiyizwe," kusho uSimon. "Leyo yingxenye ebalulekile yokuthola amakristalu akho okuphulukisa."

Nokho, okubaluleke kakhulu, kusho uSimon, ukuthi imaphi amakristalu athile umuntu adonswa kuwo. Ryonke i-quartz, Ngathi ngokushesha, ngoba ngiyawuthanda lowo mbala (hhayi nje ngoba unguMbala wePantone Wonyaka). Kuvela ukuthi i-rose quartz ilungele kakhulu ukuvula inhliziyo yakho nemizwa yothando olungenamibandela. Ngiwubisi, ngiyacabanga, ngingathini?

Njengoba ngikhetha abanye abambalwa, wachaza "amandla" we-crystal ngayinye. Ngithathe i-tourmaline encane emnyama ("i Ama-Ghostbusters itshe,” kusho uSimon, “ngoba limunca umoya omubi”), induku yeselenite ngenxa “yamandla alo ezingelosi,” kanye netshe leCarnelian ngoba “lihlakulela isibindi, lixosha ukunganaki nokucindezeleka, futhi likhulise ukulinganisela”—into engiyikho. njalo ufuna. Wabe esengibuyisela egumbini lokwelapha ukuze "ngibeke amakristalu phezu [kwami]."

Ukugxila kuma-chakras ami, noma izikhungo zamandla ezibalwe ngenhla, uSimon waqondanisa kahle amatshe namandla ahlobene nama-chakras esasisebenza kuwo. (Bheka Umhlahlandlela We-Non-Yogi kuma-Chakras angu-7.) Ngangifuna ukuthi iningi ligxile ebhalansini, ngakho-ke wenza imephu yamatshe ngokufanele-i-Carnelian ku-Sacral Chakra yami (ngezansi nje kwesisu), ukuze ikhuthaze ubuciko nobulili, futhi i-selenite ngenhla. ikhanda lami (eduze kwalokho okwaziwa ngokuthi yiCrown Chakra) ukukhuthaza ingokomoya. Ubeke leyo tourmaline emnyama ebandayo ezinyaweni zami ukumunca ukunganaki, wabe esengishiya nezingoma ezithile ezimnandi ukuze ngiphume.

Ngingathi ngihlale imizuzu emihlanu noma eyishumi ngaphambi kokuba angilande bese engibuza ukuthi ngizizwa kanjani-okungenzeka ukuthi nawe uyazibuza. Ingabe ngizwe izinto ezimbi ziphuma emzimbeni wami, ngaba nokuvuka kocansi, noma ngaba nesikhashana somoya? Cha, akunjalo. Njengoba ngishilo, abukho isayensi yokusekela lokhu kanye nencazelo yakhe yokuthi amakristalu asebenza kanjani kwakunzima kakhulu. Kodwa ngazizwa ngikhululeke kakhulu. Ngikhuluma ngikhululeke kangangoba amalensi ami abewa. Futhi amatshe ayemahle kakhulu. Ngakho ngathenga inqwaba.

Sekuyizinsuku ezimbalwa ngithole amakristalu ami okuphulukisa futhi kufanele ngithi, kahle, angizizwa ngiphulukisiwe, noma-ke, ukuthi ukunganaki kukhishwe ngokuphelele. Kodwa ngicabanga ukuthi amatshe mahle, futhi ngiyakholelwa impela emandleni esiphakamiso-uma uwabuka njengethuluzi lokukusiza uphumule futhi uthole ibhalansi, cishe azokusiza wenze lokho kanye.

Bahlezi edeskini lami, bamane bathatha isikhala ngomucu wobuhlalu be-mala. Isikhala esihle impela, esinokuthula, okungenani.
