Crystals and Chemo

Updated: Oct 9

Back in 2016, I penned this blog post. I recall the strong desire I had to take charge of my health and do something for myself.

It is amazing how something as gentle as crystal therapy can bring a sense of calm and clarity in a world that can be only described as chaos.


Since then, I have been able to assist clients in my private practice who are experiencing a similar situation. By leveraging my knowledge and experience, providing a supportive environment, and temporarily isolating the chaos, we can create a sense of stillness and calm. Achieving this state allows for clarity, purpose, and even guidance to emerge.




My Original Post


Lately, my focus has been on recovering from physical challenges like chemotherapy. This is a personal matter for me, and I opted for alternative therapy to offset the harshness of chemo. You may wonder why someone who practices holistic therapy would undergo chemotherapy. It's a valid question that I've pondered and reflected on deeply. When faced with something as severe as cancer, we need to find a balance; since cancer is so aggressive, it requires an equally strong countermeasure to restore equilibrium, hence the use of chemotherapy. Once undergoing chemo, we can then turn to our trusted holistic treatments to counteract its effects.


The Crystals described below have been instrumental in restoring a feeling of control over health issues, fostering inner peace and tranquility. They provide a boost of energy and rejuvenation, particularly benefiting the mind and emotions by alleviating concerns and instilling a sense of steadiness and bravery.


Crystals can also have a tangible impact, such as purifying the liver and aiding in the relief of muscle tension and nausea.


It is important to recognize that each person's healing journey is unique. It is advisable to incorporate alternative therapies only in conjunction with the prescribed treatment from your healthcare provider or oncologist. If uncertain, always consult with them or a qualified therapist before pursuing alternative treatments.

There are so many beautiful crystals that can be used when going through such a difficult time. I have kept this article to just four, covering some of the main issues when going through chemo.

These four crystals, can be worked with individually or as a grid, placing on or around the body. There isn't a prescribed method for using crystals and I would encourage anyone to use their instincts. If inspiration is lacking, perhaps the muggle stone on your belly with the citrine by your left side on the floor and the moss agate on your heart centre and the Dioptase by your right side. Lay within your crystal grid for as long as you feel comfortable, this can be as little as ten minutes, don't be tempted to overdo it, again go with your instinct. You will know when to leave the grid. Afterwards sit quietly, use the Gyan Mudra, your index finger touching your thumb. The index finger represents the planet Jupiter for inner knowledge and your thumb, planet earth and the ego. This Mudra will help ground and centre you and bring about a sense of balance. This Mudra stimulates the base chakra and third eye. When you have finished thank the crystal devas and the universe for your healing.

Enjoy your crystals but again please do not use alternative therapy in the place of medical treatments or advice. We are to complement not replace.
