Dipping them in Salt Water:-
Immersing the crystals in salt water will damage the crystals as it will make them brittle and weak overtime. I advise my clients to use an indirect method of salt cleansing, wherein you put the crystal in a glass container, and then put that container in a dish full of salt, instead of immersing the actual crystal in salt. This way the salt draws the negative energy out of the crystals without damaging them.
