Allo everyone!

A few months ago someone suggested that I see a spiritualist who performs reiki and crystal healing. So I went to see her, and I had about 6 healings done. Erm, at the time it felt nice and I felt like my burdens were gone...but then I realised that could have been because I fell asleep while she was doing the healing and I woke up feeling refreshed. Good ol' sleepy time.

I also bought a few crystals- including rose quartz, citrine and an amethyst...I didn't buy it knowing what the crystals represent...I just went to a new-age shop and "felt the energies" erm...something like that...and eventually I managed to choose a pendant containing all these stones...which later on, after doing research, I managed to figure out that the stones represent the things that I lack in my life (eg self-esteem, love...etc etc). Coincidence? Probably.

I quit seeing her, because I don't think it is real. I'm not sure though...Could it be this whole was more to do with the power of the mind? Or is there really that spiritual world?

I was wondering if anyone here has experienced the "energies"? Does anyone strictly believe in this spiritual world? If you do, can you tell me why and share a personal experience (only if you want to though)? Do crystals really contain this power and energy within itself?

it seems to work a little like a placebo, most of the time both the healer and the client believe wholeheartedly that what they are doing works so people often find themselves refreshed by it.

That's what I thought to. My mate said it really works. The feeling is inexplicable and thus I have to try it to understand. And I still don't understand.

as an experiment you should try to find out if there is such a thing as a crystal healing vet, because if it works on animals it really works if it don't it has something to do with suggestiveness/

I have a good friend who is a reiki master (semi big deal in the reiki world) and I have never told her this, but I think it's a load of crap.
She has given me reiki treatments and yes you do feel good for a little while but the effects are not long lasting in my opinion. She's given me what probably equates to hundreds of dollars of treatments for free and all I can say is, I'm really glad I didn't pay for them.
I think reiki is a bit like chinese food - you feel great at the time, but 30 minutes later, the satisfaction disappears.
If you are seeking some natural treatments that really do have some impact you'll notice, go get some acupuncture.

I wonder if acupuncture works?

A fully body massage normally works!

I just think the power of belief helps. I take my crystals everywhere with me and i feel their positive energies just by knowing that the positive energies are there. Most of my friends think it's a bunch of crap but i think being positive and having something you believe in/feel good and reassured about is healing in itself. Positive attracts positive and all that.

Fair enough and well-said.

I beleive that we can heal a lot of things with mind alone. Pain comes from a reaction between nerves and the brain and if a person truly beleives that a stone will stop that pain the chances are they will feel some benefit.

I dont buy into alternative therapies, however encourage anything that improves a person's quality of life without them having to pay vast amounts of cash doing so.
