Best Healing Crystals and How to Use Protection Crystals for the Home

On a trip to California, I was introduced to a woman who shared her passion for crystals’ healing power. This conversation led to a guide on using protection crystals for the home, which I thought I’d share with all of you.

I have to admit I have never considered this mystic world of crystals and their healing energy. During the conversation, I realized I had been drawn to specific stones more than others, and there was a reason behind this.

She asked me to pick a stone, and I reached for a pink one. Then asked me if I owned any crystals, and I told her a story about a necklace I bought on a trip to Copenhagen, a green stone, another green stone necklace I don’t remember where I purchased, but it too was these green stones.

She explained that pink stones correspond to the heart chakra, love and affection, and green rocks represent renewal, harmony, and balance. I seek out two things generally in my life, and my consistent stone selection proved this. Now I was intrigued enough to explore this further.

Dream it.

I told her I had a few stones scattered around my house and that I’m still looking for love and growth. She told me that two things could be blocking the healing energy, one that I needed to touch and reactivate the crystals once in a while and two, they may not sit within the house in an ideal pattern or place.
