The Laying on of Stones
by Mia Mona Muriel Amore'

Picture
The therapeutic application of crystals and other gemstones has been used since the earliest of recorded times. One of the earliest recorded therapeutic uses of the stones came from the Egyptians who used ground malachite to line their eyes. The Healing qualities of malachite proved beneficial to them in combating the eyestrain caused by the glare of the sun on the desert sands of Egypt. For hundreds of years prior to any recorded history the use of stones had been in practiced, as is evidenced by the finding of various stones in medicine bags, carved stone talismans, and jewelry in archeological and burial sites the world over. Shamans throughout the world have been known to insert small crystals into their bodies in various places to increase their power and Healing abilities. Many folk healers and ancient “magicians” have successfully used crystals to enhance health and power (energy), as well as promote Healing of the body, mind, and spirit. The Laying on of Stones is an ancient art. 

What is the Laying on of Stones?

Speaking from a physical point of view, or perhaps more appropriately, a physics point of view, the Laying on of Stones, deals with energy and vibrational rates - as all modalities of vibrational medicine do. Our bodies are made of energy vibrating at such a rate as to manifest itself as “solid” matter. All things are energy in one form or another. Likewise, the stones are energy forms vibrating at various rates and with various patterns. Within our bodies are energy centers known as chakras. The body takes in and puts out energy through the chakras. An imbalance or blockage in the chakra results in an imbalance in the energy flow of the body, ultimately causing physical dis-ease. An imbalance or blockage in a chakra or energy flow can be caused in a number of ways including improper or negative thought patterns, trauma, exposure to environmental toxins and high voltage electrical lines or other sources of EMFs (electro-magnetic fields), as well as past Life issues, physical or emotional trauma, violent (past Life) death, etc.

When the stones are laid on the chakras and various other places on the body in certain patterns, the energies of the stones assist in resetting the energy flow and vibrational rate of each chakra. As the process of Healing with stones deals with energies, it is possible to work not only with the physical body, but the mental, emotional, etheric, astral, etheric template, celestial, and ketheric and other bodies as well, as they are all made up of energy vibrating at different levels. Consequently, it is possible to send energy directly to the blockage or imbalance to bring it into alignment with the correct vibrational rate for that individual chakra and person. Many of us believe biological disease is caused initially by physical, emotional, mental or spiritual dis-ease (or unease). Removing and Releasing the state of dis-ease will bring about Healing and a more healthy state of being.

The various energetic bodies of a human being are rather like the rings in a tree trunk. If we picture ourselves as a tree, each of our experiences and thoughts make a ring in our trunk. If we have a faulty or negative thought pattern, or have experiences which have not been properly assimilated and processed, a “scar” appears in the rings which develop afterward. Releasing the initial “injury” also Releases the scars in subsequent rings, allowing the individual to come into a healthier state of being. 

Examples of a faulty or negative thought pattern may be as simple as: “I don’t deserve to be happy (or healthy, or slender, or financially secure, etc.) because I did something bad or someone said I couldn’t or wouldn’t.” An example of an experience not properly assimilated and processed might be a childhood trauma. No matter how trivial it may seem to your adult self, it was traumatic to your childhood self. Another example of an improperly assimilated and processed experience might be related to a past Life issue, physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual trauma in a past life, or a violent and/or emotionally charged, often unexpected death. These experiences and thought patterns, if left unresolved, result in carrying the “scar” from that point forward into all the subsequent rings of the trunk of the tree of our Life as a Soul. In other words, issues left unresolved in one lifetime will impact every other lifetime of that Soul.

Through the Laying on of the Stones,or Crystal Healing as it is sometimes called, it is possible for an individual to utilize the energies and placements of the stones to assist themselves in Releasing the “scars” of their lives. As they do, the scars from the rings disappear and Healing can occur. The type and intensity of the Healing varies from person to person depending on what their individual bodies need most at that time, and what their bodies can assimilate at one time. Some people experience intense emotional Release, often without knowing what they are Releasing. Other people experience profound Healing on the biological levels, and afterward find it easier to stay well when their energetic bodies are in Balance. Some people may find themselves thinking in more positive and Life affirming ways as their mental body heals.

For someone with little in the way of Healing needs, the Laying on of Stones can be used to effectuate spiritual growth as it can, if chosen, raise the vibrational rate of one’s being. When vibrating at a higher rate, one can attune themselves with other higher vibrational rates and experience growth at a Soul level. Growth at this level often involves embracing such Life lessons as unconditional Love, Trust, and Forgiveness. People at this growth stage also may find themselves searching to make Peace and resolve their issues with others of this lifetime and past lifetimes. They may find themselves interacting with others at more of a Soul level than a human level. They may see themselves not just as family or community members, or even state residents or national citizens. It is not unheard of for those with a high vibrational rate to see themselves not just as people of this planet, but members of the greater civilization of the Universe.

What is the role of the practitioner of the Laying on of Stones?

The role of the practitioner is that of facilitator for the person doing the Healing (the client). The practitioner is well versed in the uses of each stone, it’s properties, and the correct placement of the stone. The practitioner knows how to lay the stones on the body in the correct patterns to initiate the desired flow and type of energy. During a Healing session, the stones are changed within the patterns, and at times the patterns themselves are changed. The practitioner must know how and when to make these changes in the placement of the stones in order to maximize the benefit of the process and effectuate the Releasement of blockages. They must know how to choose and care for the stones. They must know how to prepare the stones for a Healing session and how to cleanse them afterward.

It is the responsibility of the facilitator to create and provide a safe, Protected Sacred Space in which the Healing can occur. It is also the role of the practitioner to call upon the Higher Self (or Soul) and Spiritual Guides of the person wishing to be Healed asking for assistance in self-Healing for the individual. The practitioner calls upon his/her own Higher Self (or Soul) and Spiritual Guides for their assistance in the Healing session. Additionally, the practitioner calls upon Higher Guidance (by whatever name is preferred by the client – Creator, God, Universe, Great Mother, etc.) for assistance with the Healing process. The practitioner offers their assistance and Support with Love, light, compassion, Understanding, and without judgment to the client in his/her Healing process. Aftercare suggestions should also offered by the practitioner, as the client often experiences an openness which to some people feels wonderful, but leaves others feeling very vulnerable and fragile. 

What is the role of the Client?

The primary role of the client is quite simply to truly want to Heal themselves. Many times, we say we want to change ourselves, or get well, or be healthier, when we really are not ready for or serious about the self-changes it takes to bring about the desired change. If one is not truly serious about their own health and self-Healing, they should not request a session with the stones – or any other Healing session. If someone is not sure if they are ready or not, but are willing to try, then by all means follow through with the session. A person will only receive the amount and type of Healing which is appropriate for them at that time.

It is also the responsibility of the client to follow through with the suggestions for aftercare offered by the practitioner. Sometimes as we break blockages and Release the “scars” of the past, we are breaking habits which resulted from the “scarred rings in our trunks”. In order to break these habits and maintain Balance in our energy systems, we may need to establish a new habit, such as meditation or yoga. If the client is not willing to help themselves in breaking old habits, it is possible for the energies of the body to fall back into the old patterns bringing about the same conditions the person experienced before the Healing occurred. Usually this does not happen, but it is possible.

Does the Laying on of Stones replace medical care?

The Laying on of Stones absolutely does not replace medical care. The purpose of the Laying on of Stones is to facilitate self-Healing, not to diagnose, treat or cure any specific disease or ailment. The process of the Laying on of Stones can be used in conjunction with any other medical treatment, allopathic or naturopathic. The focus of self-Healing, and Crystal Healing, is to bring the biological and energetic bodies into Balance. Quite frequently as the body comes into Balance, physical disease and ailments disappear or are put into a Healing process. However, this is the result of the body itself, not a process brought about by the actions of the facilitator. The body will Heal itself if allowed to and given the tools to do so. The Laying on of Stones offers an environment of energies conducive to allowing the body to Heal itself if the individual will allow it to happen.
