cleansing crystals ?? “I have to get up at seven,” I say, even as she’s leading me outside, into the fizz and pop of the rain. “I promised Mom I’d help straighten up before Aunt Jackie gets here.” “Why?” Dara rolls her eyes. “She’ll just bring cleansing crystals with her to do the work. Please,” she adds. She has to raise her voice to be heard over the music; someone has just turned up the volume, and the floor seems to vibrate with its rhythm. “You never come out.” I would like to know what does "bring cleansing crystals with her to do the work" mean, especially for " cleansing crystals ". Thanks.

Some people believe that certain types of rocks have supernatural powers when in their crystal form. One of these supernatural powers might be an ability to cleanse or clean a place of any evil or unhappiness. It appears that the aunt who is coming over is a person who has stated her belief in these magical powers of crystals. When the character Dara rolls her eyes, it shows that her comment is meant to show amusement or disdain for the aunt's belief.
