Feeling stressed out? The full swing of our emotions can wear us down & sometimes we feel stressed & depressed, other times we’re overwhelmed with anger & occasionally we feel fearful. These are the Crystals I use that have the wonderful vibrational energies to balance emotions effectively:
Clear Quartz – a great Crystal for healing mind, body & soul. It can help change our mindset about fear, an emotion which often holds us back in a big way. Everyone experiences fear in some form, fear of being alone, being judged, fear of exploring endless possibilities. What’s important is to try to work through fear in the face of reality. The vibrational energy of Clear Quartz will help us to do this & push forward in life.
Try this technique to release any crippling fear: sit cross-legged in a dimly lit room, hold the Crystal in a cupped hand position & feel its vibrational energy align with our own energy level. Look deep into the Quartz Cluster, then place the Crystal cluster on the Solar Plexus (abdomen), which is also known as the fear centre. Take deep breaths, feeling any fears & doubts slowly melt away. Ask the Crystal cluster for solutions to deal with fears. As positive affirmations drift through the mind, feel a sense of relief & courage.
Amethyst almost a ‘tranquiliser’ for its ability to relax the mind, reduce stress levels & relax the nervous system. Stress can be brought on by a number of factors, such as tight deadlines at work, or relationship pressures. A certain amount of stress is quite good for us, but when it gets excessive the mind & body start to feel burnt out & we can lose motivation. That’s the perfect time to turn to Amethyst, the Crystal of peace. A protector of the mind, it increases vigour & deflects any psychic attacks that may be directed towards you.
Find a quiet place where you can sit peacefully, without being disturbed or interrupted. Hold your Amethyst Crystal to your forehead & meditate for about 15 minutes. If you happen to be in a public place & would like to use your Crystal more discreetly, you may hold it in your palms. Cupping it between both hands & meditate. Take deep breaths & feel the calming energy flow. As the energy flows out of the Crystal, it seeps into your nervous system & you’ll start to feel calm & peaceful
We can always turn to Sodalite for help with balancing emotions. A blackish blue Stone with flecks of white Calcite; it will clear mental clutter, promoting logical & rational thinking.
Sodalite helps us to make peace with our past by bringing up issues, releasing them & balancing our emotions. Sit in a quiet room, holding the Sodalite with both hands & place it near the heart. With closed eyes, taking deep breaths, meditating & connecting with our inner child who holds all shame & guilt. Question her/him about past incidents that have been causing emotional upsets. As she/he reveals, focus on that incident & feel the purifying energy from the Sodalite release all the pain while converting them into love & self-acceptance. Feel the peace & tranquility as the meditation ends.
When feeling anger towards anything or anyone, Blue Lace Agate will calm the mind & help to remove inner bitterness; it also has the ability to take the heat out of arguments.
Using Blue Lace Agate can help us express our feelings & thoughts before they reach boiling point or the flash point of our emotions.
When feeling angry & about to explode, use the Stone to calm down. Take the Agate & hold it between the palms. Take deep breaths, feeling the vibrational energies flow through the hands into the body. Slowly but surely feel a sense of peace & tranquillity. Use this technique every time there’s a feeling of losing emotional control.
Remember to cleanse Crystals after use..
