Welcome back, beloved. I’m so glad you decided stop by. Today, we’re going to talk about the world of crystals and how they can aid in your meditation. We’ve discussed meditation before, but to review, meditation is meant to clear one’s mind and improve focus as well as mindfulness. However, for those new to mediation or who are suffering from anxiety or depression, getting that focus and mindfulness can be a challenge. The stream of intrusive thoughts as well as life’s natural interruptions may disrupt the meditative process. However, for every problem is a solution, and the solution to this problem may be crystals.
Crystals can be used as a channel for wandering thoughts. It’s like giving your thoughts a place to sit back and relax while you refresh yourself. Crystals act as holding vessels for your thoughts, which will help in the task of clearing your mind and helping you relax. Whether you’re a novice or a meditation expert (haha), crystals can hold the intention for your meditation.
Think of a crystal in meditation as a visual anchor; like how a stuffed animal brings comfort to a crying child. When those anxiety-driven thoughts threaten your mental clarity, holding a crystal can absorb those destructive thoughts. In turn, this will help you to refocus and get the most out of your meditation time. The crystal can be your stuffed animal!
Crystals don’t just stop at being “thought vessels”; they’re also intention holders. Consider this scenario: if the focus for your meditation is to heal grief, then, setting the intention to release that grief into the crystal can be a powerful tool. Grief, stress, anxiety….beloved, the crystal bears witness to your meditation, and assists you by allowing you to release the grief into the crystal. Just having the crystal in your hand, feeling its solidness, and turning it over in your hands can be a comfort.
Crystals Ramp-up the Magic Of Meditation
Meditation offers us the gift of inner stillness. However, for many, a racing mind cluttered with thoughts can make achieving that stillness a struggle. Bypass the chaos and start using crystals in your practice to facilitate the clearing and calming process.
Because they are (usually) taken from the earth, crystals carry their own unique energy frequencies that vibrate in harmony with your meditative state. By interacting with their energies, you help your mind unwind during or at the end of a busy, tension-filled day. It’s so much easier to find your center when you have a solid crystal to hold your intentions. The physical representation of a holding “cell” for your racing thoughts can improve your meditation focus.

The white quartz is the ruler of ramping up your meditation’s effectiveness. If you run a search for them, you will see these beautiful white stones. If you hold one, I’m sure you will feel them radiate a wonderfully healing vibrations that is unmatched in the world of crystals.

Holding a white quartz crystal will make those negative thoughts and distraction simply whoosh away, leaving you with a clear mind and calm spirit.
Selenite: Your Protective Barrier
White quartz clears inner clutter and chaos but selenite crystals can be a protection from external energetic interference. These crystalline stones are like an invisible shield defending the sacred inner sanctuary you created during meditation, keeping your hard-won inner peace…..in one piece.
Do you suffer from intrusive thoughts, or do you find yourself reliving past issues or mistakes? I know that I tend to worry too much about the future, or what “might happen” in certain situations. However, mapping out disasters is a waste of time and peaceful energy. Here, selenite can offer relief, keeping you from being bombarded with negative thoughts that serve no purpose except to disrupt your peace.
