I made two videos and so far two blog posts about crystals, but I feel it's never enough, like a never ending story, a support source a colorful way of dealing with s*it.]
I started to develop a passion for crystals, collecting them, taking care of them and of course using them.
Some people like me, believe that crystals, like quartz and obsidian, have specific healing properties or powers that can benefit your mind, body, and soul. (It was actually scientifically proved.)
Anyway, you’ve probably heard people talking about and showing off these beautiful stones. But you may not know what they have to offer, if anything.
So what are crystals/healing crystals are good for,how can they help?
Chapter 1.

And of course there is the question;
How to select your crystal ?
First things first: Identify what you feel you’re missing before looking into what the stones can provide you. This will help you figure out what’s going on within yourself before depending on outside sources. From there, just let your intuition choose what’s best for you. Whether a crystal catches your eye or you feel a physical pull toward one, your inner subconscious will help guide you to the crystal that’s right for you. Once it’s picked out, you can create the connection you need.
How to care for your crystal ?
When you first bring your crystal home, experts say you’ll want to cleanse away any negativity it may have picked up. Depending on the kind of stone, you can hold it under cold, running water, immerse it in sea salt and then place it in sun light.
And now that you know your crystals let us move to chapter two of this post.

Chapter 2.
Crystals for Grief & How To Use Them to Heal Your Soul After A Loss
Big energy and bright shades of joy have a time and place but for many dealing with layers of grief will need crystal energy that brings gentle healing, evens out those massive emotions, and makes you feel comforted and cared for. The crystals we have picked are here to keep you grounded, as even as possible, as well rested as can be, and provide a gleam of light that won’t go out.
Carnelian for balancing big energy.
Rose Quartz for self-compassion.
Rhodonite for gentle acceptance.

How to Use These Gemstones to Cope With Grief and Loss
Moving through the shadows of the grieving process and there are no short cuts, you will take the time that is needed for you and you alone. That doesn’t mean that support isn’t available, whether its talking to someone, practicing self-care and patience, or sitting in quiet meditation with these healing gemstones. Here are a few ideas to help you to tap into a connection with these stones and to bring about healing…
Wear a piece of gemstone jewelry and be comforted by the stone against your skin. This will also send healing vibrations directly to the heart or whatever chakra is calling for support.
Place one of the soothing gemstones beneath your pillow to bring proper rest and relief from sleepless nights and negative feelings.
Hold a worry stone in your hand whenever you feel the waves of emotion and let the crystal bring you back down from the ledge.
Meditate with the crystal or place on whichever chakra needs healing to help you through. For example, those who feel the sharp pain of heartbreak can place a crystal of unconditional love on their heart chakra space. Those who need to tap into their intuition to move through this can place one of these best crystals on their forehead to tap into the third eye, etc.
Other healing crystals that can help in horrible times are; Apache Tears, Obsidian, Aquamarine, Calcite, Agate, Chrysocolla, Lapis Lazuli, Malachite, Angelite, Rhodochrosite, and Tourmaline.
