Doaist Stone Medicine is an ancient Chinese practice that utilizes stones and crystals for healing based on Classical Chinese medicinal principles. Like all disciplines in Chineses Medicine, a statement in the Ling Shu, one of the earliest texts of Chinese Medicine, is that all illness is the result of separation from Spirit, and that the superior practitioner helps guide the patient to rediscover this connection and to alleviate suffering, whether physical or emotional.
I have found that incorporating Crystals and Stones in my practice, especially on those whom have suffered a major trauma or loss, allow my patients to connect to their grief and emotional pain through gently unraveling the emotional entanglements we've taken on through life. These unresolved emotions are stuck in our body and cause an imbalance in our Central Nervous System leading us to physical and spiritual pain. It's a type of dysregulation that we may feel almost like someone suffocating us and trying to take away our light.
Direct application of the stones is most often used when practicing Daoist Stone Medicine, whether it is by wearing jewelry, taking elixirs , or directly placing them on the body, these stones have the capacity to heal our energy field and regenerate positive neural connections in our brain so that the trauma or grief held in our body can be balanced and nurtured in a safe and supportive way. I was first introduced to the healing power of Stone Medicine while I was on a trip to Sedona. Me and my friend visited a Crystal shop and it was life a wave of euphoria that penetrated my energetic field. It felt like home.
