INSIDE: Good mental health fosters a focused, clear mind to accomplish tasks and keep your emotions positive and balanced. Crystals for mental health can be used everyday to promote concentration, memory, and clarity. Learn about ways to incorporate our 10 favorite crystals for mental clarity into your life.
In a time when AI (artificial intelligence) is proliferating our homes and habits (we’re talking Alexa, Siri, Spotify algorithms, and other smart devices), the question often arises: when will computers become smarter than the human brain?
Looking at the science, it’s unlikely to happen. The human brain has way more memory capacity and uses a lot less energy. The brain with all its neurons may be able to store 1 petabyte of information – significantly more than the average computer.
Yet even with all that memory space, it feels like sometimes our brains send us an overload alert that screams, “TOO MUCH INFORMATION – it’s all too confusing, and I can’t focus!”
When your brain feels fried, like a computer out of memory space, it becomes difficult to do any task, even those you think don’t use much brain power.
Newsflash: your brain neurons fire subconscious signals all the time to keep your body doing its thing. That’s why mental health has such important applications in all parts of our lives.
To help get your mind back on track, you need to seek concentration, memory, and mental clarity to fine tune your brain’s functions.
Using crystals for mental health will help you put your brain to work towards your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
Ways to Use Crystals for Mental Health
Crystals are like little human brains themselves. They seem simple enough but are packed with powerful vibrations that we can use deliberately or unconsciously to thrive in the day and night.
Let’s look at some of the ways we can use them for mental health…
Meditate With Them
Meditation is a key practice for mind strength, resolve, and balance. Add crystals for mental clarity to a meditation practice, and the benefits are amplified.
You can create a ring or other shape of crystals around you to attract clarifying energy towards you throughout your meditation
The best way to activate your crystal during meditation is to visualize the work of the crystal on your mind and body.
Just as we are often instructed during a guided meditation to picture our breath moving through our bodies, we can do the same with our crystals. Envision their energetic frequencies entering your body and healing you.
Here are some of the best crystals for meditation.
Keep Them With You While Studying, Reading or Writing
A semi-conscious way to use crystals for mental health is to keep them near you in the places where you do challenging brain work or need to find focus.
Setting up crystals on your desk while you study or write or on your bedside table while you read will sharpen your mental capacities to retain information and power through your work.
Hold One While Visualizing it Purifying Your Mind
Another variation of meditating with crystals that can be done at any moment and anywhere is to let the physical touch of the stone inspire images of purification in your mind.
You can make an energetic connection when you hold your crystal and visualize the vibrations pulsing towards your brain as you take a few moments to breathe and refocus.
Place Them on Your Upper Chakras
Your upper chakras – throat chakra, third eye chakra, and crown chakra – have a big impact on your mental facilities. If they are out of balance, you may find yourself making bad decisions, feeling confused, or jumping between erratic thoughts.
Placing crystals for mental health on these chakra nodes can go a long way to unblocking energy and stabilizing your chakra system.
You can choose to do a focused chakra meditation, lying down and resting crystals on the chakra you feel is most affected. Or you can opt to wear crystal jewelry, like a choker necklace with a crystal that targets the throat chakra.
Sleep With One Under Your Pillow
Your computer might have a power button to turn off all the processes at the end of the day, but your brain doesn’t. So even when you sleep, your brain has work to do – so many subconscious and unconscious tasks.
You can help your brain with its mental jobs by placing one or many crystals under your pillow. The healing properties will be absorbed through your head while you sleep.
