Earth mothers, hippies and other granola types like to 1) hang crystals from ceilings, and 2) sit beneath them.
They say they feel the good vibes, man.
Seven crystals align with the 7 chakras of the human body. Lay under them and look up, maybe listen to some Enya, and let the healing begin. Colored lights get channeled through the crystals, which flow thru the body's chakras, ostensibly for cleansing.
Finish it off with little yoga, and voila! It's like you, man, only better.
Not too long ago, in Waterford Crystal's Factory cafe, I counted 16 razor-thin facets dancing above my head. They sparkled in rainbow cadence. I was having lunch with my boss, discussing the NY Times circulation program, and altogether enjoying life.
Could've been those crystal vibes that made me feel so good. Or maybe it was the Rhubarb pie we had for dessert.
