American stress is driving a crystal healing boom. Biohacking techniques are now taking the stage even more. The $1B crystal market is now outshining the diamond market. And according to Nielsen, 80 percent of Gen Z-ers believe in the power of spiritual energy fields. That statistic alone shapes the future of healing.
Crystals are believed to have healing vibrations. Earth energy elements, like amethyst, Himalayan salt, and gem infusions, are now mainstream ingredients in beauty products, claiming to deliver magical curative properties. This week, we take a look at where crystals are showing up in our daily self-care routines.
