Another interesting stone is carnelian, a reddish brown stone. People believe that wearing a carnelian stone close to your body helps you stay calm and composed.

MEDITATION

If you have read the above paragraphs, you will notice a pattern. While we do not laugh at the claims of special powers of certain stones, we also do not recommend giving up conventional treatments under medical supervision. In cases where mental stress or peace of mind are claimed to be addressed by crystals, there might be no harm in trying. However if the condition becomes worse or remains persistent, your doctor might be the right person to help.

Meditation in many forms is practiced in practically every country. This might not have a religious angle to it. Crystal therapy has developed specific roles for various crystals used in meditation. It is quite harmless to try using these stones in your meditation session.

If you are a new comer to meditation:

Firstly, choose a room that makes you feel comfortable. A very hot or very stuffy room or a room with plenty of noise might not be what you need. Would you feel more comfortable if you could lock the door? Make sure that you are not disturbed by people knocking at the locked room door. The room should have good ventilation, an open window or small verandah attached to the room would be welcome.

Choose a time when you are free and not under the pressure of time. Remember it is the quality of time that you meditate which is important, not the quantity. Wear loose comfortable clothing, if the weather is cold, slip into a warm sweater. Choose the best position that makes you feel comfortable and calm, this could be lying down, sitting on a chair or even sitting on the floor. Make a visit to the toilet or bathroom, avoid doing this once you have started meditating.

Keep a glass of water at hand, slowly sip the water after completing your meditation. This will help you wind back to the real world and feel more comfortable. Airconditioned rooms can become dry as the machines lower the humidity level in the air. 

Do not take your crystal meditation too seriously. Doing you will make you feel depressed and sad when the expected results are not clearly seen. Meditating with or without crystals can bring about some positive personality development, so look at it with a wide open mind.

Medical experts believe that meditation if done in the right frame of mind can help control blood pressure. The systematic, controlled and disciplined breathing rythms recommended during meditation, help to easy stress and allow a person to think more logically and calmly.

If you feel relaxed during and after meditation, you are already seeing some direct benefits of doing it. Take this frame of mind into your daily life and work, it is bound to make a positive impact on your personality.
