The Crystals

 

The healing benefits of crystals are said to improve areas of mental wellbeing; including feelings of increased tranquility, positivity and focus, as well as enhanced immunity and pain relief. And not only that, but they are beautiful! 

I have chosen five (5) crystals to add to my collection because of their beauty and healing properties. Below you will find a description of each crystal’s qualities.

Aquamarine

My favorite stone! Due to the fact that aquamarine is so frequently associated with the sea, the stone's spiritual meaning is one of cleansing. Aquamarine evokes the purity of crystal blue waters, and the relaxation and feeling of calm that the sea brings. Spiritually, aquamarine is associated with trusting and letting go. The properties of aquamarine related to physical healing are thought to be closely connected with breathing. Sometimes referred to as the “Breath Stone,” aquamarine is known to alleviate sinus, lung, and respiratory problems. It is also believed to help with bronchitis, colds, hay fever, and various allergies.

Amethyst

A natural tranquilizer, it relieves stress and strain, soothes irritability, balances mood swings, dispels anger, rage, fear and anxiety. Amethyst activates spiritual awareness, opens intuition and enhances psychic abilities. These crystals are also said to have several physical healing properties. It may enhance the immune system, improve endocrine function, improve skin's appearance, promote digestive health, reduce headaches & regulate hormones. 

Citrine

Know as "The Merchant's Stone", Citrine Crystals are believed to help manifest abundance and prosperity. This yellow quartz also relieves fear & anxiety, brings mental clarity, boosts creativity & aids in digestion.

Clear Quartz

Known as the “master healer”, this crystal clears your mind, body, and spirit of any clutter. A Clear Quartz crystal can help you align with your highest self and live your highest potential. This amazing stone can help to bring mental clarity, enhance your connection with the world around you, and amplify your intuition and inner vision.

Rose Quartz

The Love Crystal! Its soft color works with your broken heart and frees self-resentments and anger. Rose quartz will create a sense of calmness for inner peace and self-healing. It is said to increase blood circulation in the body and is especially powerful when worn close to the heart. Rose quartz wards off negativity, and when carried, helps to replace negative emotions with positive ones returning you to a place of pure love and balance.
