Diploma Course in Quartz Crystal healing with Laurel Alexander

Entry Requirements Course Recognition How it's Delivered Further Study Syllabus Costs and Enrolment

The earliest records of crystal healing come from ancient Egypt. The Ebers papyrus states the medicinal uses of many different gems. Healing with crystals is also recorded in India's Ayurvedic records and in traditional Chinese medicine from around five thousand years ago. Everything is energy and vibrates at various frequencies and crystals work via these vibrations. Every living thing has a vibrational energy system, which includes chakras, subtle bodies and meridians. Through crystal healing, one can retune an energy system or rebalance a body's energies, thus improving well-being.

Quartz is one of the most abundant minerals in the world and can heal on the physical, emotional/cognitive and spiritual levels. There are a number of varieties of quartz: amethyst, milky quartz, prasiolite, chalcedony (agate, carnelian, onyx, jasper, tigers eye, chrysophrase, bloodstone, sard, sardonyx and flint), ametrine, aventurine, citrine, elestial, phantom quartz, rock crystal, rose quartz, rutiliated quartz and smoky quartz.

This course takes you through the requirements necessary for you to practice quartz crystal healing, covering the varieties above, with clients.
