Crystals have been used as tools for spiritual, shamanic healing, and energy crystal therapy for centuries. It is a requirement to cleanse and charge the crystals to maintain their natural energy and effectiveness. One of the popular methods for this is using Himalayan salt.
Himalayan salt is a pink-colored salt. It has trace minerals, such as iron oxide, magnesium, potassium, zinc, and calcium
One of the characteristics of Himalayan salt is its purity. It is one of the purest forms of salt available. It extracts from ancient salt deposits that have remained untouched by modern pollution. Himalayan salt is for purifying and charging crystals.
How to Cleanse Your Crystals In Himalayan Salt
This salt is an excellent choice for purifying and recharging crystals. Himalayan salt is non-invasive and will not damage the crystal structure or properties. Here is the step-by-step process of cleansing and also recharging your crystals in Himalayan salt:
Like cleansing with salt, choose the salt shape and form that suits your preference and availability. Now, first, let us go through the steps on how to cleanse your crystals:
Step 1 -Select a small bowl made of glass or ceramic to hold the Himalayan salt.
Step 2 - Gather the stones that you wish to charge.
Step 3 - Pour a generous amount of Himalayan salt into the clean bowl, ensuring that the crystals you want to cleanse are deep in the salt. You can use coarse or fine Himalayan salt granules.
Step 4 - Carefully place the crystals into the bowl. Put them deep in the salt. If you are purifying multiple crystals, ensure they do not touch each other to prevent energetic interference.
Step 5 - Focus on the intention and imagine a bright white light emerging from the salt and purifying the crystal’s energy.
Step 6 - Allow the crystals to rest in the Himalayan salt for a few hours or overnight. This duration gives them enough time to absorb energy, the salt’s cleansing and charging properties.
Step 7 - After the designated time, remove the crystals from the salt and rinse them under cool running water. This method washes away any residual salt and negative energy.
Step 8 - After the desired clearing time, carefully remove the crystals from the bowl. Discard the salt used in the process, as it absorbed negative energies.
