How to Fight a Cold With Crystals



Starve a cold, feed a fever? The other way around? Let's face it, nobody knows what helps. Everyone has their standbys, from mustard plasters to hot toddies. The world of natural medicine offers several minerals that can help you through a cold.







Things You'll Need:





Small bag or pouch (optional)




Clear Quartz




Larimar, Sulphur, Jet, Emerald and Yellow Topaz for colds and flu




Carnelian for sinus and lung irritation




Labradorite, Fluorite, Rhyolite, Lapis, Rhodochrosite or Smithsonite for sinus congestion




Aquamarine or Blue Agate for coughs




Gold, Lodestone or Rutilated Quartz for bronchitis









1


Clear Quartz is the ultimate healing stone. Use it for its own properties and to give the other stones more power. Keep one in your pocket, under your pillow and in your water glass.





2


If you're coughing, add an Aquamarine or Blue Agate to that water glass. Or, just wrap a cloth around your neck with one of these stones over your throat.





3


For the sinus congestion, try washing your sinuses with a salt water solution. Keep a piece of Labradorite, Fluorite or Lapis Lazuli in the salt water, along with a piece of Carnelian.





4


For the chest congestion, drink lots of water and breathe lots of steam. Add Lodestone, Gold or Rutilated Quartz in the steam water, along with a piece of Carnelian.





5


There are several stones that are specifically recommended for a cold. Try wearing Larimar, Sulphur, Jet, Emerald or Yellow Topaz.








Tips & Warnings










Get plenty of rest, drink plenty of good water and keep any or all of these stones under your mattress or pillow or in your pockets.








You can combine small pieces of all of these in a medicine pouch and wear it.








If any cold lasts longer than seven to ten days, your nasal discharge becomes yellow, or your fever spikes, see your doctor.
