My experiences with crystal healing

[AnthroHeart]

I have a few Crystal's however they do not work properly and I usually just get hurt by them

By "get hurt" do you mean physical pain? If so, I would say continue with them and over time you may see an improvement in other aspects of your life. In the last month I have felt bodily pain after a deep meditation or prayer and I've been told that this is a sign that the body is being cleansed of negative energy.

That's not really good advice. Why would you continue with something that hurts you?
Crystals are not for everyone. They might focus things too much, and some people need diffusion.

The message you got could be right for you, but not everyone is the same.

I say go by your intuition.
