What are crystals used for?

Whether you are looking to enhance a specific area of your life, like your love life or professional life, or you are looking to let go of something that’s holding you back like fear or stress, crystals can be your support system and your tangible connection to that goal. They provide you with a touchpoint: something to come back to whenever you need a reminder or want to reconnect with your goal. No matter what you are working on, crystals can be used as an ally or a tool to help you get there faster. 

If you have difficulty letting go of old ideas that are no longer serving you, Black Tourmaline is a powerful gemstone for releasing unwanted patterns that may have turned into bad habits. It helps release all the negative energy in your body and within your energy field. This stone also serves as a talisman for protection, which is essential if you’re the type of person that easily picks up on other people’s energy. Hematite is great for deflecting the negative moods of others by grounding you and reconnecting your spirit to the energy of the Earth.

If you’re seeking more tranquility and calm in your life, Amethyst is one of the best intention crystals for relieving stress and bringing balance back into your life. Another gemstone that helps balance out emotions is Moonstone, which gives you support when you’re feeling overly emotional or out of touch with your feelings. Rose quartz is also helpful for emotional well-being because it opens and realigns the heart chakra, which magnifies feelings of self-love and the unconditional love of others.

Whether you’re seeking out crystals for their physical healing or to bring peace and tranquility into your life, they all work to increase your vibrational frequency. If you feel good when you hold the crystal in your hand or have it touching your skin, or even if you don’t feel the immediate effects of your stone, know that the crystals are emitting positive vibrations to help you up-level and grow.
