Crystals can be used in many ways! A common method and for beginners is to just hold them in your hand. It is important to find a crystal that their energy calls to you. Another method is to place them on your body and meditate, but there are others, as well. Meditating is different than praying. Praying is speaking and meditating is listening! Included is one way to utilize the metaphysical properties of crystals.
One way is to make an elixir. Place clean, cleansed crystals in a bowl of spring water in the sunlight (moonlight for other ways to program your crystal to meet your need) for two hours. Once you remove the crystals drink the water as needed.
I have compiled a list of some crystals containing substances that are toxic to humans, so DO NOT put them in the bathtub or make a crystal elixir with them. Always make sure these crystals are safe, clean of dust, dirt and the debris. Always wash your hands after touching your crystals. Here is a list of some of the crystals that contain toxic substances. This list does not contain all stones that could be potentially toxic to humans. It is always recommened to do your own research!
