For, others, manifesting their dreams and desires through this “law” is a way of life. Some say that by harnessing this purported universal power through the art of manifestation, almost anything is possible. There are even specific strategies, including the use of crystals, that may help make it happen. While there’s no scientific evidence to support this, there are still plenty of believers. Read on to learn what proponents say about using crystals to manifest the life you want. What is manifesting? First things first, what exactly is manifesting? Put simply, it’s the process of bringing your desires into reality using the law of attraction. “The basic, most widely understood premise of the law of attraction is that thoughts become things, and what we give our focus to we see more of in our reality,” says law of attraction coach and spiritual mentor Esther McCann. Manifesting is also something we do subconsciously. Believers say we are manifesting our realities all the time with our expectations, thoughts, and feelings. “The law of attraction can be harnessed by developing an awareness of those thoughts, feelings, and beliefs we have and how they affect the way we are energetically showing up in this world,” says McCann. Emma Halley, a crystal therapist and spiritual wellness coach, explains that the law of attraction is based on energetic principles. “We know that everything in the universe is made of energy at a subatomic particle level, and our thoughts carry a vibration of their very own,” she says. “When we consider that ‘like attracts like’ the things we think about and focus on become part of the vibration we ourselves carry, and therefore attract.” At its core, manifesting means getting into vibrational alignment with your desires. “The key to manifesting is to create a state of mind that carries the same vibrational frequency as the life we want to live,” says Halley. Some people use crystals to match that vibrational frequency. Manifesting means getting into vibrational alignment with your desires. What the science says While the law of attraction is practiced by people around the world, it’s not without its naysayers. Some dismiss it as wishful thinking, others as complete nonsense. So, what does the science say? Some research supports the idea that positive thinking can lead to a happier life. A 2005 research review with more than 275,000 participants found that people with “positive affect” were more likely to enjoy increased levels of success in health, work, and relationships. A 2010 research review found that visualizing your desires as though they have been achieved, a popular manifestation practice, improved the likelihood of that desire becoming a reality. Meanwhile, a 2016 study found that positive visualizations had the power to lessen anxiety and improve feelings of happiness. It’s important to note that there’s no evidence that conclusively proves the existence of the law of attraction. However, anecdotally, there’s a growing number of people who credit the law of attraction with helping them to manifest everything from increased levels of wealth and material items to improved health, new opportunities, and everything in between. Manifesting with crystals So, how can crystals help you get into vibrational alignment with the things you want? Whether it’s attracting your soulmate, receiving more money, or improving your health, believers say there’s a crystal for that. Crystals are said to carry potent energies that can be harnessed to influence the energy around us and within us. Some believe this can help with the manifestation process. “Crystals are super powerful little life-forces that grow organically, the same as plants, animals, and people,” says Halley. “They carry an electric charge throughout the crystalline structure known as piezoelectricity.” Halley believes piezoelectricity, defined as electric polarization caused by mechanical stress, influences the vibration of the crystal as well as the user on an energetic level. While research on crystal healing is lacking, Halley suggests keeping an open mind. “Lots of people believe that crystal therapy is a placebo. I’d like to think after 20 years in the business that I can say with some certainty that it’s far more than that,” she says. “If it improves the quality of life for a person, then why dismiss it because we can’t yet fully explain or understand it?” Though current science doesn’t back it up, there’s no harm in giving crystal manifestation a try, especially if you keep your expectations realistic.
