Energy healing in recent days

The spread of energy healing techniques from the east to western cultures of the world, has laid the foundation for a rapidly expanding market for healing objects like gemstones, crystals and orgonites. These different forms of energy healing are believed to promote spiritual balance and harmony.

Reiki, a healing practice of Japanese origin, balances the flow of energy between the 7 chakras or energy points in the human body. The chakras are believed to be associated with a colour, hence colourful gemstone beads are an essential element in the practice.

A similar Chinese concept, feng-shui, promotes balancing power through spatial arrangements. Crystals are believed to be connected to the earth element in Feng-shui and are extensively used in the practice to invite positivity and happiness.

Orgonite items, objects containing a mixture of quartz and metal shavings have the potential to harness life energy for healing. Orgonite items are available in various forms like chakra pyramids or orgone chakra stones.

Though healing objects offer a multitude of benefits, it is difficult to carry them around throughout the day. This limitation has been overcome by the range of innovative objects available in the market today in the form of gemstone pendants, chakra pendants and engraved pocket stones. These objects also offer thoughtful choices for gifts to loved ones.
