The New Age movement is a spiritual and cultural phenomenon that emerged in the late 20th century, characterized by a blend of various beliefs and practices. It often incorporates elements from Eastern religions, Western esotericism, and psychology, focusing on personal growth, holistic health, and spiritual awakening. Practitioners of the New Age movement may engage in activities such as meditation, yoga, and crystal healing. The movement emphasizes the interconnectedness of all life and promotes the idea of a collective consciousness, encouraging individuals to seek their own spiritual paths and explore alternative healing methods.
