No scientific evidence exists to support crystals’ healing properties; however, the placebo effect can be powerful and they’re lovely to look at!

Are you exploring the metaphysical powers of crystals? Create an altar for cleansing and charging your crystals before adding them to your bath or simply placing one somewhere in your home for energy healing purposes.

Clear Quartz

Clear Quartz crystal is an effective natural stress reliever that can unblock energy in the heart chakra while increasing positivity in circulation systems. Furthermore, this gemstone can strengthen immunity systems and cleanse toxins from your body.

Many practitioners believe that crystals emit healing vibrations when touched or held. This effect may be the result of their piezoelectric effect, where mechanical pressure results in them producing electricity from within them.

Holding or gazing upon a crystal representing a mantra, emotion, or intention during meditation is an excellent way to maintain an intention-focused mindset throughout your practice. Additionally, it serves as a visual cue when your thoughts wander off course – one of the most popular ways crystals can be integrated into daily life.

Selenite

Selenite exudes a soothing energy and emits a white light that provides clarity and protection, said to expel negative energies and repel psychic attacks. It has become popular for spiritual and energy work such as meditation, Reiki healing sessions and chakra balancing.

Selenite is a mineral formed through the evaporation of ancient salt water deposits. It can be found throughout Mexico and Morocco; geologists study its crystallography to gain more knowledge on geological processes.

Grace believes selenite helps clear heavy, blocked energy from both aura and body and support mental clarity and intuition. She suggests placing it at third eye and crown chakra, or soul star chakra, to form connections to spirit realms and angelic beings. Moisture should also be kept at bay in order to avoid its breakdown and loss of luster.

Amethyst

Amethyst is widely revered for its healing properties related to emotional balance and spiritual development. While commonly associated with Pisces zodiac sign, anyone can use this stone to enhance creative intuition and inner wisdom.

According to legend, rose quartz crystal can help improve judgment and decision-making skills while encouraging stability and courage. Furthermore, rose quartz can aid with addictions by stabilising metabolism, soothing sleep quality and encouraging relaxation. Furthermore, it may even help balance hormones, which could benefit women dealing with PMS or menopause issues.

Amethyst is widely believed to help alleviate headaches and migraines. As such, it makes a great crystal for keeping near your bed or home as it helps clear negative energies while creating a calm environment.

Citrine

This stone has an exuberant energy that draws upon your personal strength to help you realize success in business, personal relationships and career pursuits. Additionally, its bright energy promotes clarity of thought while simultaneously sparking creative energy and remaining positive when facing difficulties.

Citrine emits a golden sunlight to clear and protect its surroundings, as well as to soothe any physical ailments or disorders that might otherwise exist. It has long been believed to aid digestion, spleen and pancreas function stimulation as well as alleviate eye problems, improve blood circulation and help relieve depression by helping balance chemical imbalances.

An amethyst stone encourages the awakening of your inner self and facilitates deeper connections to divine nature, while at the same time encouraging positivity in relationships and healing the ego. Furthermore, amethyst can assist in breaking free of negative patterns that obstruct growth.

Tourmaline

Tourmaline is well known for its protective properties and can assist with many areas of physical, mental, and emotional healing. It can be used to protect spaces and energetic boundaries while efficiently dispelling negative energies from environments.

Black Tourmaline possesses numerous metaphysical properties and boasts a powerful frequency to channel energy where needed. Furthermore, its use as an aura protector and for reducing electromagnetic radiation exposure in homes or offices makes this gemstone an invaluable ally.

Elbaite tourmaline provides the mind with a protective barrier, shielding it from attempts at gaslighting or brainwashing someone. It fosters compassion, tolerance and prosperity while balancing male-female energy. Tourmaline also has a soothing effect on heart and muscles as well as relieving back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain and heartburn symptoms. Pleochroic crystals like tourmaline can change colors when seen from different directions; its darkest hue appears when facing its long axis of its crystal.
