Gems and Crystals to boost your immune system
When we talk about the healing aspects of gemstones and crystals, we often speak on the spiritual/emotional benefits and yet they also have numerous physical benefits; particularly in building the immune system.
But before we dive in, why do stones and crystals work so well as healing tools?
Mainly, crystals work due to their unique stable structure which allows electromagnetic energies to flow through them in a way that is powerful and efficient.
If it's difficult for you to believe that gems and crystals can actually be effective; you can now rely on science to prove that there is powerful medicine in how our minds play a significant role in how we feel and heal.
They actually did a study at Stanford University on the subject:
"Our minds aren't passive observers, simply perceiving reality as it is. Our minds actually change reality," said Alia Crum, PhD, who directs the Stanford Body and Mind Lab in a recent Stanford News feature.
In the article, they say that doctors are now seeing the Placebo effect as an actual path to better health!
Dr. Crum says, “If we truly want to tackle the diseases and crises of our time, we need to more effectively acknowledge and leverage the power of mindset."
