Remember to cleanse: There are several methods for cleansing and charging crystals / healing stones; including using water, smudging with sage or palo santo, burying them in soil, placing them in sunlight or moonlight, or using other crystals to amplify their energy. It's important to choose a method that is safe for your specific type of crystal, as some methods can damage certain types of crystals.
