Can Crystals Really Help with Headaches?
From small annoying pains to full-blown ones, headaches can affect your life and your way of living in many negative ways.
Headaches are often referred to as silent epidemics when it comes to health problems.
These are seldom discussed and often overlooked issues that deserve more serious attention or awareness.
Typical headache cure often involves aspirin, ibuprofen, or a cup of coffee, or sometimes even a combination of all. They can be effective in easing the pain, but they are not natural painkillers.
Oftentimes your headaches can be the result of your stress or tension, and they come at the most convenient times, especially when you have major deadlines or a ton of things to do.
When you feel the beginnings of a headache, why not move away from your computer or put down your smartphone and place a crystal on your head for pain relief?
Physics advocates that crystals radiate a specific frequency of energy that raises your bodily frequencies, subsequently easing or curing it.

3 Important Tips to Help Headaches with Crystals
1) Cleanse, clear, and charge your crystals regularly to keep them working at their best.
As your crystals absorb negative energies to cleanse your pain, they become clogged as well.This reduces the crystal’s ability to vibrate.
Simply holding your crystals under warm running water for a minute or so, or putting them under the sunlight for a few minutes, will give them a quick charge.
But they should be cleansed and charged thoroughly every few days.
2) Put your crystals in strategic places.
You can put crystals on your headboard or on your desk, or any place you spend a lot of your time in.
You can also put them in a small pouch that you can easily retrieve from your purse or pocket.
Whenever you feel a headache forming, you can just get this pouch and hold the crystals in your hands.
3) Create a bubble of protection.
Do a bubble of intention. Meditate on your crystals for a minute and place them in your solar plexus. Visualize a white or golden sphere that starts small, spinning clockwise.
With each breath you take, the bubble of protection gets bigger and bigger until it surrounds all of you. It will get bigger and bigger until it’s a foot above your head.
Afterwards, seal your bubble however you like. You can seal it with a silver ribbon and state a mantra about it being your bubble of protection against anything that wants to cause you harm.
When you’re already suffering from a headache, put your crystals on your temple to absorb and trap the headache in your crystal.
This exercise usually takes about 15 minutes. Just make sure that you do it in a quiet place where you can truly be one with your thoughts and intentions.
