A Crystal A Day...
These days it seems like if we can survive the week, we’re doing okay. Bogged down with work, school, relationships and other stresses sometimes have us feeling like we’re drowning. Can anyone else relate? We all need a little help and some support here and there and sometimes that doesn’t always look like a friend extending a helping hand or our boss letting us go home early. Sometimes it looks like a hot bath at night, a new set of sheets, a hot cup of coffee or matcha or some natural healing remedies. Natural remedies such as crystals have been on the rise in popularity in recent years and for good reason. There is a crystal for every need from self-love, confidence and even restful sleep and anti-anxiety. Whether you believe in their healing powers or not, just hear us out on our top five crystals we recommend everyone try for themselves.
First, and probably one of the most common crystals is Amethyst. It’s known for its striking purple color and comes in various sizes and is often worn as a necklace, bracelet or even earrings. It’s known for promoting calmness and balance and is often used to raise spiritual awareness and is great for aiding in meditation. Another widely loved crystal, and for good reason is Rose Quartz. It’s associated with love and compassion not just towards others but towards ourselves as well. It helps with opening your heart chakra and also promotes emotional healing. We like to keep this stone in our pocket, in our purses and even in our car. Wearing this stone as a necklace is also a great idea and we like to think it’s because it’s close to our heart space.
Another one from the quartz family is Clear Quartz. This is a versatile crystal that covers three bases: amplifies energy, promotes clarity of thought and enhances our spiritual growth. It’s a great stone to pair with any other crystal on this list. Next is citrine, which is our personal favorite and is also known as the “success stone.” It’s known for bringing abundance and prosperity while also promoting positivity and creativity plus it helps you focus on yourself which we could all use some more of right? Finally, but maybe most importantly is Selenite. Selenite is great because you never need to cleanse it or charge it but you can use it to cleanse every crystal on this list because it’s known for its cleansing properties. We use selenite to purify our spaces at home and also wave it over our crown to promote mental clarity. So, what do you think? Are you sold on the healing power of these essential crystals? Give it a shot and don’t knock it ‘til you try it. Let us know what you find out about yourself.
