No matter if you are an established Reiki practitioner or just beginning, healing crystals can be an excellent addition to your practice. They help keep the balance between physical, emotional, and spiritual bodies intact.
Choose your crystals with care when selecting them for each session, taking cues from your intuition. Smoky quartz, citrine and rose quartz tend to work particularly well as choices.
Red Jasper
Red Jasper evokes strength, balance and resilience. It stimulates the root chakra to increase physical vitality and stamina while encouraging a balanced approach to sexuality.
Physical exercise can also serve as a powerful emotional healer, providing respite from anxiety and mood swings while relieving fears, increasing self-love and trust as well as creating feelings of security and safety.
Rose Quartz
Rose Quartz emits the energy of unconditional love. Its gentle feminine energy brings peace, tenderness, and nourishment – activating the heart chakra while stimulating a profound sense of unconditional affection.
Add rose quartz crystals to your meditation space to free yourself of fears, doubts and resentment. They may also prove helpful during pregnancy or when placed near infants for emotional healing and spiritual growth.
Citrine
Citrine, also known as the Sunshine Crystal, radiates positivity and joy. It can help open your solar plexus chakra and manifest your dreams more easily.
Citrine has long been considered an invaluable aid to business owners as it promotes financial prosperity. Displaying raw citrine can bring prosperity and luck while balancing energy within any space it occupies. In addition, citrine helps soothe relationships while smoothing over family or group issues to promote cohesiveness and healthier awareness.
Aventurine
Green Aventurine has long been used to improve decision-making, increase confidence when taking risks, and attract opportunities. Furthermore, it can soothe nerves while supporting heart health.
Place an Aventurine piece in the money corner (as indicated on your Feng Shui Bagua map), wear or carry one around to attract luck and prosperity. Recharge it by rubbing against skin or placing under sunlight/moonlight overnight for added energy boost.
Carnelian
Carnelian has an energetic vibration that promotes confidence, courage, and creativity. Additionally, it can heal and balance the heart.
This stone can help address specific self-esteem issues by helping release negative emotions such as anger, resentment, guilt and fear. It can work to enhance confidence and certainty while simultaneously alleviating feelings such as rage.
Carnelian can also be helpful for those suffering from rheumatism, lower back pain and arthritis. It helps speed up bone and ligament mending while relieving fatigue.
Garnet
Garnet’s vibrant energy refreshes and purifies chakras. It strengthens survival instincts while offering hope, courage, and healing for its wearers. In addition, Garnet can stimulate past-life recall.
Garnet is an effective way to bring prosperity and abundance into one’s life, particularly when used with Uvarovite Garnet. These two crystals combined can manifest passion, sensuality and sexual energy while working well as an energy pair to attract prosperity when placed near doors according to Feng Shui principles.
Tourmaline
Tourmaline is an extremely sought-after stone known for its ability to absorb and expel negative energy. Black tourmaline (or Schorl), named for its inky black hue, has long been considered essential for those suffering from electromagnetic frequency (EMF) sensitivities.
Attunement with nature provides protection from debilitating panic attacks, soothes electromagnetic interference (such as that experienced by those living with fibromyalgia), reduces heat/cold sensitivity, balances the root chakra and promotes feelings of groundedness.
Sodalite
Sodalite, or the “logic stone”, promotes honest communication and inner peace. Sagittarius zodiac sign members especially benefit from Sodalite because it aligns well with their truth-seeking tendencies while deepening intuition.
This gem can also help create a peaceful meditative state to aid divination and empathic readings, and its calming energy may help reduce mood swings in your home for healthy relationships and an enhanced Feng Shui vibe.
Amethyst
Tumbled amethyst, part of the quartz family, promotes peace and discourages disagreement. It triggers new ideas while strengthening psychic capacities.
Yoga is a natural stress reliever and helps clear away toxic thinking patterns, promoting sound sleeping habits and balancing the endocrine system by stimulating hormone production.
Pendulums can be an effective way to open our Crown Chakra and connect to pure consciousness, while jasper is an ideal stone for clearing away negative energies like anxiety, fear, grief, loss and rage.
