If you are into alternative forms of healing and therapies, you might have surely heard of crystals that are basically minerals assumed to have some healing properties.
The world is full of wonders. Some of these wonders are so big that we can't even comprehend them. The Pyramids of Giza, the Great Wall of China, and the Grand Canyon are just a few examples. But there are also smaller wonders, wonders that can be held in the palm of your hand. This is where the wonder of gemstones comes in. Every gemstone is a small wonder. They're like the gems that make up the walls of a castle. They're all different, and each one is as unique as the person who's wearing it.
The gorgeous stones are believed to correspond to your inner energy system called the chakra system. By placing or holding different crystals on your body, these stones supposedly affect the various areas corresponding with the different vortex of energy and chakras.
