Backstory is important when sharing. I had a time when after a heart area operation, where for quite a few months, I had multiple heart spasms. There were three types. Every moment tiny micro spasms, ripple spasms that would make me shudder and hiccup spasms which would drop me.
Sadness, Misery was a constant experience. No sneezing, no coughing, no emotion, no sudden movements, no lifting anything even slightly heavy like a half full kettle. Anything seemed to kick it off even talking and it lasted 24/7 for days sometimes.
I was in a lot of stress and lived alone.
I needed an answer. I found that if I were to crunch and rattle crystals together in my lightly enclosed hands, when stress peaked and sadness overshadowed, that doing this would divert my attention into the sound and the sensation, being created within my palms. Then when it felt right, I would drop them into a bowl of water and put my elbows to fingertips in there too and stress I discovered all dissipated very quickly.
I am a highly research minded person as I have been a Martial artist since 1970 and have written about the human body as an energy pattern since about 1973.
I figure this works as a way to remove stress, because the human body is a frequency and the sound created is a different frequency, being generated right on top of a meridian or activation point in our palms that we have as a way for releasing stress. Our attention to the sound and where it is being activated, must do it.
I have also done this with stones found on the ground and they definitely work as well. Crystals do work better they must be washed afterwards, however.
I found the need to apply this trick of mine YESTERDAY when I discovered my vehicle may require between 3-4 thousand dollars in repairs. The tummy churned, as reality set in that this most certainly is a big potentially non-achievable ask due to other bills.
It took about five minutes once again, for all feelings of stress, to dissipate completely. I have used this method often and I have shared it often over the years, including on this forum. When you're in need of INSTANT stress relief, it works a treat. I can confirm this as being (for me) and many others, an absolute fact, do try it if ever in need.
Another effective method is to sit back flat against a tree (this works for children too) as it is scientifically IMPOSSIBLE to remain depressed, anxious, angry, etc when sitting back rested flat against a tree for ten minutes, as the tree is grounded to Earth.
This is my input on the topic hey guys.
