Crystal healing is a natural and complementary therapy that can be used alongside traditional medicine, with no known negative side effects. The benefits of crystal healing are wide-ranging and affect multiple aspects of well-being.

One of the most commonly reported benefits is the deep relaxation experienced during a session. This relaxation can promote overall health, particularly in reducing stress and anxiety. It may also help relieve muscle tension, improve physical discomfort, and address sleep issues.

On an emotional and spiritual level, crystals are believed to enhance self-esteem, foster clarity, and bring a sense of inner peace and balance.

While anyone can experience these benefits, having an open mind is essential. Skepticism or preconceived notions can limit the healing process, so approaching crystal healing with an open heart and no expectations can make a significant difference.

Different crystals are believed to possess unique energies that can support various aspects of life. Here are some examples:

• Clear Quartz: Known for focusing energy, encouraging balance, and improving clarity. It's often used to amplify the properties of other crystals.
• Rose Quartz: A soft pink stone known as the 'love stone,' it can help encourage self-love and emotional healing.
• Amethyst: Available in various shades of purple, amethyst relates to intuition and is known for aiding restful sleep and relieving stress.
• Black Onyx: A black crystal hailed as a protection stone, it helps protect against and absorb negative energy.
• Citrine: A vibrant orange stone known as the 'stone of success,' it can increase personal power and is ideal for those in demanding careers.

At Nature's Gems, we believe that beautiful products should not only enrich your life but also contribute to the well-being of the talented artisans who create them. That's why we are proud to source many of our items from partners who uphold high standards of ethical sourcing and fair trade practices.

Supporting Artisans Around the World

We work closely with small-scale producers from countries such as India, Nepal, Indonesia, and Thailand. By prioritising partnerships with artisans who use traditional skills and sustainable materials, we help preserve cultural heritage and promote economic self-sufficiency. Our commitment extends to ensuring these ethically sourced products find their way directly to you.

Principles We Stand By

Our partners operate under the 10 Principles of Fair Trade as defined by the World Fair Trade Organization (WFTO). These principles include:

• Fair Pricing and Payment: Ensuring that artisans receive fair compensation for their work is at the heart of what we do. We collaborate with suppliers who engage in open, respectful negotiations with producers, provide advance payments when needed, and pay in full promptly upon shipment to support their economic stability.
• Sustainability and Environment: We are proud to source products created using environmentally friendly practices, such as the use of recycled materials and natural, azo-free dyes. This helps to minimise environmental impact and promote sustainability.
• Empowering Marginalised Producers: We believe in supporting small-scale producers who may not have formal recognition but greatly benefit from fair trade practices. This empowerment helps artisans improve their living conditions and secure better futures for their communities.

Absolutely! Many people enjoy wearing multiple crystal chip bracelets or carrying different crystals in their pockets. There are no hard rules about how many crystals you can work with at a time—it’s entirely up to you.

In the past, some believed that certain crystals’ energies could clash with each other. However, crystal healing is a highly personal experience, and it’s all about discovering what works best for you. It’s a process of trial and error.

Personally, I like to select 3-5 crystals each day based on the areas I’d like support with. I carry them with me, meditate with them, and place them around my space, allowing their energies to support me throughout the day.
