People around the world are becoming increasingly aware of the benefits of energy therapies, with Hollywood A-listers jumping on the bandwagon to help them deal with the pressures of the entertainment world, among others.
Stars such as Kate Bosworth, Halle Berry and Gwyneth Paltrow have reportedly turned to reiki for self-healing, while others such as Adele, Victoria Beckham and Lena Dunham have been collecting a variety of crystals to improve their wellness.
Here’s a list of some of the stars who have turned to energy healing, and their reported reasons for doing so:
Reiki:
Erykah Badu
Did you know that American singer-rapper Erykah Badu is a third-degree reiki master? In an interview with Vogue magazine, she said that she usually helps to heal women, friends, and even strangers, in giving them nutritional advice, among others.
Gwyneth Paltrow
American actress and owner of spiritual lifestyle brand Goop, Gwyneth Paltrow, reportedly attended reiki healing sessions around the time she and ex-husband Chris Martin, who is the lead singer of popular band Coldplay, announced their decision to separate.
The pair had also called their decision to split as “conscious uncoupling.”
Christina Aguilera
American singer Christina Aguilera was really public about going on reiki therapies three times a week to help her lose weight.
“Reiki puts my mind in a good place and gives me the discipline to eat healthy and maintain weight loss,” media reports had quoted her as saying.
Crystals:
Lena Dunham
American actress Lena Dunham who suffers from endometriosis and post-traumatic disorder, among others, has turned to crystal healing to help her deal with those issues.
Dunham reportedly uses a heating infused with tourmaline, which is known to strengthen the immune system and adrenal glands, as well as easing joint pains.
Adele
British singer Adele reportedly doesn’t go on stage without a piece of citrine in her hand. The yellow-golden crystal helps with focus, clarity, luck and good fortune.
Cara Delevingne
UK model-actress Cara Delevingne is said to be a frequent crystal shopper and reportedly keeps the reddish-brown jasper stone close to her at all times. The stone is known to help raise stamina, endurance and confidence while being under a lot of stress.
