Use healing crystals to chase away the winter blues

-->
Gemstones have been used for healing for centuries. Gemstones contain minerals that can be absorbed through the skin. Gemstones also help us to be healthy by balancing our energy fields and improving our vibrations. Gemstones also help us to be centered and grounded. Even in this dreary time of year in the northern hemisphere, healing crystals can be used to offset the stress and sadness that can affect some of us during these wintry, grey months.

Quartz crystals help to clear away negativity and sadness and add good positive vibrations. Arranging clear quartz crystal clusters and spheres in your home will help to restore health and harmony. Keeping amber, amethyst, lapis lazuli and smoky quartz in your home will also reduce negativity. Add some of the inspirational celestial gemstones like angelite, celestite and petalite for their reassuring positive vibrations.

Carrying carnelian, citrine, pyrite, sunstone and topaz stones will help to clear negativity and depression. Amethyst, carnelian, lapis lazuli and topaz will filter out negative thoughts and replace them with more helpful worthwhile thoughts. Carry aventurine, bloodstone, carnelian, emerald, fluorite, rhodochrosite, ruby or tourmaline gemstones to restore your vitality. Amethyst, bloodstone, carnelian, hematite, pyrite, rose quartz and topaz will also help to relieve fatigue, improve your circulation and restore your strength.


Pink gemstones like kunzite and rose quartz will help to calm and clear negative feelings. Hold them, wear them as jewelry or keep them on tables near you. Wearing moonstone jewelry will also soothe away sadness and encourage optimism. Beryl and peridot jewelry will also free you of negative emotions.

The sparkly gems can be used to shine light on a person for therapy, too. Hold a transparent or translucent jewel over a person with Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) or an area with a health problem for healing benefits. Gemstones can also be used for massaging. Gems can be placed on acupressure points, taped over the points or used for acupressure massages. Keeping gemstones on desks or by beds may also help to improve the atmosphere and reduce negativity.

Gemstones should be washed at least once a month in warm water. After being cleansed the crystals should be recharged. You can recharge them by placing them on quartz clusters. Gemstones can be carried together in velvet pouches but you should handle and store your gemstones carefully.

Your healing crystal gemstones have so many positive uses.  Find a way to put yours to work for you today.
