Reiki practitioners rely on crystals for their meditative healing properties, with stones such as clear quartz amplifying energy during sessions while others, like rose quartz, are used to unblock heart chakras.

Black tourmaline is an effective way to protect yourself against negative energy and stress, acting similarly to charcoal’s ability to draw out toxins from the environment. Amethyst also serves as a protective stone which may assist with insomnia relief as well as lessen addiction symptoms.

Rose Quartz

Rose quartz is one of the world’s most beloved crystals, known for its heart chakra healing properties and use to promote love and compassion, strengthen relationships, boost self-love, dissolve boundaries of isolation and foster deeper spiritual connections.

Rose quartz is used in Reiki and energy work to reset the heart chakra, release stress, improve circulation and skin health and promote circulation and skin rejuvenation. Its soothing energy makes it perfect for therapeutic massage and reflexology therapy treatments focused on emotional healing.

Rose quartz can also be added to your personal space or crystal grid to support love and romance intentions. Use it during meditation sessions, full moon rituals or even create your own rose quartz reiki bath!

Black Tourmaline

Black tourmaline is an invaluable grounding and protection stone. It can help deflect negative energies, release any blockages and help stay focused and grounded while helping people to remain present and present in life.

Energy healers sometimes suggest keeping a piece of black tourmaline beside or under your pillow at night to allow its grounding effects to help promote deeper restful sleep. Others suggest keeping one in your home or office to cleanse and harmonize its surroundings – especially near electronic equipment that emit electromagnetic fields.

Black tourmaline can also be an invaluable aid during energy healing sessions. Incorporating Reiki helps cleanse and absorb electromagnetic fields generated by client auras.

Citrine

Citrine is an ideal stone to use when practicing Reiki healing as it promotes positivity, happiness, and abundance. Citrine may also strengthen your solar plexus chakra which is associated with confidence and personal power.

These bright yellow crystals can help you tap into feelings of optimism and prosperity. Their energy encourages imagination to help bring your goals and dreams to fruition while encouraging you to trust your intuition and remain more open-minded.

If you intend on using crystals during Reiki sessions, it is a wise practice to cleanse them prior and after every session. Cleansing can take place through water immersion or smoke from herbs such as sage, thyme and rosemary (though make sure they’re suitable before doing this!); alternatively you could place them under a full moon to recharge their energies.

Amethyst

Amethyst is believed to stimulate the higher crown chakra, providing a pathway for spiritual expansion and developing intuition. People use amethyst as a healing stone for anxiety relief and creating a more focused meditation experience.

Crystals with soothing vibrations have long been used to help balance emotions and ease irritation, as well as to release unwanted feelings such as anger or fear – creating the opportunity for transformational growth and positive transformation.

Large amethyst clusters and geodes can add a soothing element to living spaces and personal meditation areas in the home, creating a peaceful ambiance and encouraging restful sleep while connecting deeper to inner wisdom. Pairing amethyst with lapis lazuli during meditation sessions can further promote clarity and increase intuitive awareness.

Carnelian

Carnelian provides energy and physical health benefits. It is said to activate the body’s natural healing abilities and regulate its hormonal system, providing balance. Carnelian also fosters idealism and extrovertism while reinforcing positive self-image – becoming known as Singer’s Stone due to its ability to amplify and clarify one’s voice.

Resonating with the Sacral Chakra, Selenite resonates with self-confidence and motivation, making it a popular choice among reiki practitioners for use in manifestation rituals or goal setting rituals. New moon ceremonies provide an excellent opportunity to set intentions or purge away negativity that has been holding you back, while crystal grids often use this stone as their center stone to amplify energy. You can recharge Selenite by placing it on Selenite or in direct sunlight for 2-3 hours for cleansing purposes.
