Energy Healing with Crystals

Working with crystals can be a powerful tool for personal growth and healing. Each crystal has its own unique properties and energy that can help balance and align the chakras, release negative emotions, and promote overall wellbeing.


As a certified Energy Healing Practitioner I have studied crystals and their benefits and I've both personally and professionally experienced their healing properties. Based on both my years of study and practice, I offer the following advice for how to work with crystals:

  1. There is no wrong way to do it. You may cleanse them, clear them, and charge them under the full moon. Or not. The only care a stone truly requires is respect.

  2. You decide where to place each stone either on your body or in your home, office, and/or car. Allow your intuition to guide you. No need to over think or analyze where they go. Trust your inner knowing.

  3. The true power of crystal healing is your intention to heal and your faith in their innate power. If you believe crystal healing works, then it works.

Now that you know how to work with crystals, below I outline which crystals to work with and why. This list is by no means exhaustive, it's a summary of the crystals I use most often with clients. I have these crystals available in my studio if needed during or after a healing session.


If you'd like to explore additional crystals and their benefits, I recommend the book The Crystal Bible. It's also fun to wander through a crystal shop and choose stones that peak your interest. I typically shop locally at East West Bookshop in Mt. View, CA or on Etsy.


Above all have fun with crystals! Name them, display them, talk to them, share them. They are little bits of mystery and magic that we invite into our lives. They're here to support us and remind us of the immense beauty found throughout our planet.
