spiritual healing crystals

Healing crystals are an increasingly popular spiritual tool to assist with personal growth and development. While there is no universally correct method to utilize them, ultimately its up to each individual to incorporate them into their routine and decide the best course of action.

Step one in using crystals for healing is setting an intention. This can be accomplished via physical touch, healing rituals or both methods.

Atlas Mountain Jasper

Protective stones such as amethyst are believed to bestow strength. Amethyst can ease non-specific aches and pains, stabilize health, fortify immunity systems and balance mineral content of our bodies. Furthermore, amethyst may ease stomach issues like water retention by helping balance mineral levels in our bodies.

Jasper stone patterns may contain hidden messages or pictures from our Mother Earth that promote ecological awareness. As it’s composed of proportion and harmony, jasper promotes creative visualisation while at the same time uncovering feelings such as griefs, fears, envy and hopes from hidden places in us all that need to be released or examined further.

Place a palm stone of jasper at the entrance or center of a room to bring its healing energy and ground and balance our energies. They’re also great tools to use when beginning meditation sessions as they ground and balance energy flows.

Apatite

Apatite is a crystal that helps you release old patterns of behavior and beliefs that no longer serve you, as well as encourage speaking your truth and standing up for yourself if you feel mistreated or pressured into submission.

This spiritual healing stone resonates with the throat chakra and is linked to Gemini in terms of its energetic properties. It’s said to enhance communication and open your Third Eye so you can access spiritual guidance more readily.

Apatite crystal is said to purify your aura, boost immune systems and increase metabolism and suppress appetite – perfect for weight loss! For best results when charging it up, place it on Selenite or Amethyst for several hours or in sunlight to add energy.

Citrine

Citrine is an effective stone to attract prosperity and abundance into one’s life, while at the same time improving self-confidence and personal power. Citrine also encourages imagination and optimism allowing its frequency to activate imagination while alleviating fears and worries.

Citrine, connected to the solar plexus chakra, promotes personal power and self-esteem while aligning sacral and solar plexus chakras – encouraging creativity, intelligence, and personal growth.

Maintain a piece of natural citrine when meditating or attending an important business meeting, or display it in your office or living room to bring prosperity and luck in these spaces. Citrine can also help smooth family relations while relieving tension. Plus, its negative energy-defeating properties help ward off envy and jealousy-a powerful remedy against depression!

Rose Quartz

Rose Quartz, commonly referred to as the ‘Love Stone’, emanates soft feminine energy of compassion, peace, tenderness, healing, nourishment and self-love. It resonates deeply with the heart chakra and can assist in drawing love into our lives by strengthening friendships and familial bonds as well as healing any emotional blocks associated with self-love.

Rose Quartz can bring emotional clarity. It encourages understanding of past experiences and facilitates healing of past hurts into newfound trust. Furthermore, it has been said to foster self-love which can be particularly helpful for new and expecting mothers.

As with other crystals, Rose Quartz should be regularly cleansed to stay clear and unaffected by any negative energies. Soaking it in spring water, smudging it or placing it under your pillow are all effective ways of keeping Rose Quartz clean and active.

Tourmaline

Tourmaline (also referred to as Schorl) is an amazing stone which acts as a protective shield from negative energies and psychic attacks, especially for those sensitive to EMF pollution from electronics such as laptops or phones. By creating an absorbent shield it absorbs any negative energies that might enter through EMF pollution like laptops or phones and creates an effective defense mechanism against their harmful energies.

Attracting Forgiveness, Compassion and Tolerance. Activating Heart and Crown Chakras

Meditation practitioners will find the benefits of this stone invaluable; it helps achieve laser focus and boost concentration, as well as aiding those dealing with mental illnesses like anxiety or depression. Furthermore, its healing powers extend to heartburn, migraines, back and neck pain relief – it even makes use of Feng Shui principles to balance energy at home or workplace!
