Crystal, gems & mineral  are solidified reflections of those properties which are already with in us. In Gem theraphy they are seen as aspect of ourselves;as tools, as guides, as  gifts from nature, to be enjoyed. Gems and precious metals are  used to balance planetary influences and to act directly on  life  force. Having the capacity to both attract and  dispel  positive or negative energies,their healing properties are applied by wearing them in jewellery or having  them  in  some way  close to the body;placing them in water overnight and drinking the water the  next day;  drinking  water from  vessels  made of  specific  metals such as gold, silvar, or copper, or talking gem tinctures in  water.                
             

               If  gems are  to  be  used for 
               healing,  they    should    be
               purified by immersing  in salt
               water for at least  two  days.
               Water sacred places  is  also 
               sometimes  used,   such    as 
               water from  the  Ganga. Their
               power can also be enhanced by 
               chanting sacred syllables and
               mantras  over them. Gems are most effective when they more
               than two carats and are  worn in contact with the skin. If
               a precious stone of two carats or more is not available,it
               is better use a semi-precious stone that is larger.To allow 
               the direct contact with the skin all rings  and   pendants
               should have an open backed setting and the preffered metal
               is gold.

              
               Individual stones are said  to 
               have properties that influence
               the "doshas"   in  individuals 
               and increase the well-being of
               the   wearer.  Some   of   the  
               stone include the Topaz  which 
               is said to decrease  Vata  and
               helps to relieve fear.Precious
               stone like  Diamond, Sapphires
               Rubies and semi precious stone like Lapis Lazuli,Coral,Beryl
               and Moonstone-have their own attributes and are  recommended
               to correct various imbalances in the body.
