Top 5 Healing Crystals for Energy, Balance & Spiritual Wellness
Okay, let’s talk crystals. Specifically healing crystals. Aside from being beautiful to look at, the amount of things these beautiful gifts from the earth can be used to enhance are pretty much endless. Love, courage, success, protection, balance, strength to name a few.
These little treasure have been used for millennia to help us achieve these things and so much more. They can be a powerful tool to turn to in times when healing is needed and is an opportunity to really embrace and take advantage of these natural wonders.
The Healing Journey
I have been focusing a lot on healing since receiving my cancer diagnosis (obviously lol). My crystals have been a huge part of my healing journey.
There is a curated selection by my bedside, and bracelets of Amethyst, Rose Quartz, and Black Tourmaline that never leave my wrist.
Now I'm talking physical healing of course, but also emotional healing and bringing balance to the body.
We are all on a healing journey of some sort.You may be fighting disease, healing wounds, emotional scars, or trying to maintain balance during this crazy ride that is life.
What better way to encourage this than surrounding ourselves with magickal little pieces of the nature?
Developing a special bond with nature and the earth is essential for our well being.
Working with crystals can bring us that much closer to connecting with the world around us. Every natural thing on this incredible planet of ours is filled with energy.Taking these little pieces onto yourself can be a very powerful tool.
Now, maybe crystal healing seems too new agey for you and just doesn’t sound like your jam. Which is totally fine! You are entitled to your own opinion and must do what resonates with you.
But really, what can it hurt? If nothing else, you will have their beauty to inspire you.
Carry one in your purse, leave one by your bedside….your mind is an amazing thing and the power that faith and believing in something can have is immeasurable.
Give them a try, you may find that they become comforting just having them around, and the benefits in that alone are bountiful.
So, a little healing crystal realness if you will, here we go!*

Easy Ways to Use Healing Crystals
Place them by your bedside - Your body heals naturally during sleep. Keeping some favourites by your bed is an ideal place to let them work their magick.
Carry them on your person - Necklaces, bracelets, in your purse. So many options! Pretty and purposeful.
Meditate with them - Meditation is a powerful tool all on its own for healing. Placing crystals strategically around your meditation space or holding them in your palms can do great things to enhance your focus, spiritual energy, and results.
Ritual bath - Another form of meditation, a ritual bath with crystals can do wonders for healing the body emotionally and physically.
Place strategically around your home - Surround yourself in your most sacred space, your home. A means to help keep the energies balanced, flowing, and positive with your humble abode. Not to mention, they look gorgeous!
Crystal Buying
Now that you have a few crystals in mind to start with, if you don’t already have an arsenal on hand that is, you will need to purchase a couple.
While there are a thousand and one places online to buy them, I prefer in person purchasing where crystals are concerned, if it's at all possible.
Each one feels different, looks unique, and has there own individual energy about them.
Look, touch and feel…choose the one that speaks to you.Trust me you will find one that does!
Most places, even little towns tend to have at least one shop that carries crystals and stones.
If however, there is just nothing in your area, online purchasing is of course an option. Better than going without! And there are some wonderful online resources.
In that case, I would say do your research. Try and find a vendor you feel a connection to and make sure they are authentic and not imitation stones (this happens a lot).
Ethical Sourcing
Last but absolute not least, try your best to purchase your crystals from vendors that care where their product is coming from.
The crystals that we love and buy come from the mining industry. The practices of said industry are not always ethical to their workers or the environment.
Online sites will generally address ethical sourcing if it is something they care about. If at a physical store ask where they source their crystals from.
This isn't always an easy thing to do. Just be aware and do your best when making purchases.
Moon Rise Crystals has some great information on ethically sourcing crystals on their site.You can check it out HERE.
Focus & Faith
Whatever journey you may be on, whatever healing you have to do, I hope this post will help to push you in the right direction.
So grab a crystal, focus those energies, align those chakras and have a little faith.You are strong, courageous, and fierce. All will be well <3

*Disclamer:I am not a doctor and this post is not meant to replace modern medicine or your doctors advice and recommendations. I am merely offering some thoughts based on my own personal experience to help supplement or enhance regular treatments you may be undergoing. I myself, went through chemotherapy, radiation and multiple surgeries for breast cancer and used crystals as a means to help enhance my health and well-being throughout my treatments, but by no means replace them.
