After so much time cooped up in our personal spaces, many of us are getting bitten by the travel bug and planning getaways near and far. Of course, everyone has their must-have travel items, but did you know that crystals make excellent travel companions? Whether you’re a crystal master or new to gemstone healing, traveling with your stones is a powerful way to stay protected, positive, and open to new experiences. That’s why I wrote this blog: Crystals for Traveling – 5 Wanderlust Gems, to connect you with some of the best traveling gems on the planet.

Top 5 Stones for Traveling
1. Crazy Lace Agate
This gem encourages you to stay present in the moment – feeling safe, secure, and well. Its swirling pattern brings a circular flow of energy that stimulates the mind and body.
