The practice of Yoga stands among the best forms of emotional and physical healers known to mankind. Yoga is open to anyone for practicing and benefiting from it. The physical benefits of Yoga apart, it also brings along several positive rewards on the emotional side. Stress is often on the top of list of causes leading to physical problems like arthritis, reproductive problems, anxiety, depression, cardio-vascular issues etc. Practicing yoga has a salutary effect on the stress levels as well as general well being of individuals.
Yoga has a long and ancient history
Most forms of Yoga known to mankind today and practiced in different parts of the world had its beginning in India.
The great saint Pathanjali's Yoga sutra is a treatise on the entire gamut of Yoga and the various benefits each exercise or "aasana" as they are called. The complex structure of the body and its functions are well delineated in the Yoga Sutra and prescriptions to address each problem laid out in great detail.
Pranayama - the breathing exercise
In recent times, Pranayama or several variations of breathing exercises has spread far and wide and the human race is benefiting from it. The size of a mature human lung is equivalent to that of a Tennis Court, but alas, very few utilize this massive capacity of the lungs in the proper way. Yoga, particularly the Pranayama is a great exercise capable of enlarging the capacity of the lungs to hold oxygen and we all know that increased oxygen levels in our system can work wonders with our blood circulation and general health.
Crystal healing
Crystal healing has existed for several decades. The new found interest in crystal healing has only pieced together methods and ideas from several cultures. Mankind's fascination for minerals and gemstones can be traced back to medieval times.
The energy field
Crystal healing works on the principle that every human body is surrounded by an energy field. When the vibrational frequency of these fields is raised through crystal healing, the negative patterns are unblocked. When the negative patterns are turned into positive patterns, the subject feels fresh and brisk.
The energy in question here, refers to the soul or its energy. This is the most efficient and highest method of intervention to eliminate basic causes of physical as well as psychological illness. There are different energy centers around the human body known as chakras. Illness or discomfiture is caused when the chakras malfunction.
Crystal healing has deep roots
Crystal healing is essentially a holistic method of providing succor to the physically and mentally distressed and it is difficult to find rational answers on how it works. But, from time immemorial, crystals are believed to hold immense potential to heal human afflictions. The amount of benefit you can derive from crystal healing is often directly proportional to the faith or belief you hold in the system. Most holistic approaches to treatment hold this view too. The fast paced life style of the modern age invariably brings along a variety of ailments and discomforts and it is only natural that modern medicine fails to provide solution to every single problem.
