Crystals aren’t just super-gorgeous home (or purse) accessories: They’re also known in the woo-woo world as powerful energy-cleansing tools. And just like your other cleaning essentials (vacuum, duster, scrubber brush), they need to be cleared of all the gunk in order to work their magic.
In the latest episode of our video series “Good Vibes”, we’re (hilariously) breaking down exactly how to do it with brilliant advice from reiki expert Kelsey Patel. “[Crystals] not only help release and clear energy, they also receive energy—and need a good bath to clean themselves off so they can keep vibe-ing to help you,” she explains.
