The Best Crystals for Anxiety

Anxiety is a psychological state in which a person feels a fear whose cause is hard to identify. It usually arises in reaction to a traumatic event that has left its mark on the person. To help relieve anxious states, certain crystals and healing stones are recommended.

Aquamarine

Aquamarine calms anxiety and brings inner peace. Get an aquamarine crystal weighing at least 100 grams, or a gem-quality aquamarine. Carry it in your pocket and take it in your hand when you feel anxious. Hold it for a few minutes until the tension eases.

Apatite

Apatite regulates the physical effects related to stress and anxiety (particularly in the liver and gallbladder). Get a piece of rough green apatite weighing at least 500 to 600 grams. Take it in your hand or place it on your solar plexus. You can also sleep with it.

Azurite

Azurite regulates the physical effects of stress and anxiety (in the head, liver and gallbladder). Get an azurite measuring 2 to 3 centimeters and take it in your hand every day, at a set time if possible, for as long as you feel like it. You can also place it on your forehead or throat. Cleanse the stone by passing it through incense smoke (frankincense or benzoin resin).

Complementary stones for anxiety

Among the other stones recommended for anxiety are the following: aventurine, green moss agate, calcite, cerussite, chrysoprase, citrine, labradorite, Picasso jasper, blue quartz, rhodonite and black tourmaline.

Crystal healing is a complementary wellness practice, not a substitute for medical or psychological advice. If anxiety is weighing on your daily life, talk to a doctor or a mental health professional.
