Healing crystals and minerals are a  lot like rechargeable batteries. The crystal, whether it be on your shelf, in a  crystal grid, or hanging from your earlobes, has absorbed massive amounts of  negative energy and the energy of everything else that has gone on around it.

This wears down the effectiveness of the crystal’s healing energies. You  eventually have to clear the collected negative energy from the crystal or  mineral and then recharge or reprogram it. There are several methods of doing  this and they are all simple.

1. Rinse the crystal or stone under running water and then leave in the sun  for a few hours. Be aware that the color in some crystals can fade if left too  long in the sun.

2. Bury your crystals and minerals in earth, in a filled flower pot or in your garden. Be sure to mark the spot so  you don’t forget where you buried them! Leave the stones for a few days and then  dig them out. Gently brush off the dirt. Your crystals and minerals are now  humming with beneficial Earth energy.

3. You could clean the stones in a bowl of salt water. Be careful not to  leave your stones in the salt water for too long as salt can degrade crystals  and minerals.

Here’s a tip: Try soaking yourself in a salt bath after a stressful day. By  this I mean empty an entire carton of table salt into a hot bath. Soak in the saltwater bath for  several minutes. Do not soap up! Just soak. Afterward shower and wash as you  normally do. You will emerge from that shower feeling reborn because the salt  cleaned the negative energy from your physical and energy bodies. Try it! I  guarantee you will be amazed at how much better you feel afterward.

4. Using sound is another effective method of clearing negative energy from  crystals and minerals. Sound waves are highly effective in clearing negative  energy from crystals, minerals, and entire rooms. If you play an instrument then  set your crystals and minerals close to the instrument while you play  (preferably not a screaming electric guitar!).

If you do not play an instrument then try playing gentle music on your  stereo, wind chimes, or a tuning fork. You could place your crystals and  minerals inside a glass bowl, wet your finger, and then run your finger along  the rim of the bowl to make it tone. Do this for 2 to 5 minutes, or the length  of the average song.

Clear your crystals and minerals at least once a month to keep them emitting  strong healing energies.

Thought is energy. Intent is energy. When you think of an intention you  create energy, and that energy is absorbed by your crystals and minerals. This  is how you will program your crystals or minerals for their intended  purpose.

After clearing your crystals and minerals hold each crystal or mineral in  your hands and think to yourself the reason you use it. If you use the stone as  protection against EMF emissions then think, “I intend to use this crystal as  protection against EMF emissions”. If you use, say, amethyst to help your mind  to focus and to remain calm then think, “I intend to use this amethyst to help  my mind to focus and to remain calm”.

That’s it!Try to clean and recharge your crystal and mineral “batteries” at  least once a month.

Mother Nature has provided us with tools we can use to protect ourselves  from, well, ourselves, and some of those tools are right at our feet. These  tools, though, need care to keep working to the best of their ability. Clearing  and programming your crystals and minerals is an essential process as simple as  a thought intention.
