20 Ridiculously Handy Crystals You Need To Heal Your Life
Whether you’re overcoming loss or simply having a bit of a bumpy time negotiating life’s little niggles, Judy Hall shares 20 powerful gems thought to help you to heal your life…
With just a handful of crystals you can transform your life. Crystals uplift you, replenish your energies, create safe space and provide protection and heal your body, emotions, mind and soul. You can wear one or place them on your chakras (see the end of this article for an illustration) or in your environment. Choose the ones that resonates best with you. It’s important you always cleanse your crystals before and after use, and to ask your crystals to work with you.
Step one: Cleanse your crystals
If you are using a tumbled or robust crystal, place it in running
water to cleanse it and then put it out in the sun for a few hours to
recharge – white stones prefer moonlight. Alternatively, use a drop or
two of purpose made crystal cleanse and recharge essence, such as
Petaltone Clear2Light.
Fragile, clustered or layered stones can be place in brown rice
overnight or in a candle flame. Then place in the sun, place on a
Carnelian or spray with a crystal recharge essence.
Step two: Request the pleasure
Hold your crystal in your hands and state your intention, asking the
crystal to work with you in the best possible way for healing,
protection or whatever you need.
The Top 20 Crystals
1 Brandenberg Amethyst: My personal number one!
This is the one stone I’m never without;
I’d take it to a desert island with me as my one luxury. Brandenberg
Amethyst holds the perfect blueprint of All That Is.
The crystal is like a ladder to higher
consciousness, it takes you into expanded awareness of multi-dimensions
and connects to your guides and mentors. But it is also an immensely
practical stone. As it holds the energy of amethyst, smoky and clear
quartz; it is cleansing, re-energising, healing and highly protective
for you and for the planet.

system.

and regulating physical or emotional pain. It can also give you the
‘bird’s eye view’ of a situation. Wear it during any major trauma or
simply to keep your life running smoothly.

protective grid around your home as it does not allow outside
influences to penetrate. A large piece within the house ensures safe
space and a peaceful atmosphere.
