Crystals for Anxiety & Stress

In the tradition of crystal healing, amethyst is the flagship stone of anxiety relief - its violet ray is said to quiet the racing mind and call in restful sleep. Black tourmaline is its grounding companion, traditionally placed by the threshold or kept in a pocket as a shield against the emotional weather of others. Pair them for a morning-to-night rite: amethyst on the nightstand, tourmaline in your bag.

Suggested Ritual

Hold your chosen crystal in your receiving (non-dominant) hand, close your eyes, and state your intention out loud for sixty seconds. Place the stone where you will see it throughout the day. Cleanse weekly under moonlight or with sage smoke.
