Top 5 Crystals for Anxiety & Panic Attacks

So many of us deal with anxiety on a daily basis. #HELLO2021 Even those on the spiritual path can get lost in the haze and sometimes forget that we can turn to our spiritual tools for relief. Crystals are a great way to help relieve anxiety and panic attacks.

I was recently on the Big Island, and in the middle of this amazing vacation, I was feeling a twinge of anxiety for some reason. While shopping in Kona, I stumbled upon the cutest crystal shop and picked up a Lepidolite bracelet that immediately cleared my energy field. Even though we know all the things, sometimes we need to remind ourselves that the Earth gives us everything we need to heal ourselves!

Stress can wreak havoc on everything we do, think, or feel. And then, of course, it manifests in various ways in our three bodies, the physical body, the mental body, and the emotional body.

  • Stress signs on the physical body: muscle tensions, allergies, constipation, indigestion, ulcers, hyperventilating, palpitations, nausea, heart problems, menstrual problems.

  • Stress signs on the mental body: inability to concentrate, depression, anxiety, negative thinking, irritability, lack of motivation, confidence, and self-esteem.

  • Stress signs on the emotional body: increased reliance on coffee, alcohol, workaholic, self-neglect, insomnia, recklessness, aggressive and anger outbursts.

 

Here are my top 5 crystals for anxiety and panic attacks, plus the best ways to use their energy.

Lepidolite

Lepidolite contains naturally occurring lithium, a common ingredient used in making anti-anxiety medications. It occurs as a purple or pink crystal which is layered, and it can either be grainy, shiny, or raw. This gentle stone helps alleviate anxiety and can also help bring a balance and a sense of clarity in times of acute stress when it seems the world around you is in ruins. Unlike medications, lepidolite does not have any side effects. This crystal helps develop a sense of independence and enhances positive transformation. 

For the healing process, lepidolite can be placed over the third eye and used during meditation. Also, it can be carried in the pocket, and you can hold it any time you need comfort. 

Blue Lace Agate

Blue lace agate is an excellent calming crystal. It is a pale blue crystal with white or blue lines. It is small and tumbled. This blue crystal is regarded by many as the best choice for reducing anxiety and stress. It helps reduce the anger and fears of being judged. Its soothing, vibration-inducing energy encourages relaxation, and it helps calm the nerves. By dissolving repression, blue lace agate allows for freedom of expression and speaking the truth. It can be used on the throat chakra as it induces calmness, nurturing, and self-expression.   

For the healing process, you can wear a bracelet or any other piece of jewelry that is made of this crystal in order to benefit from its calming and soothing energy. In case you cannot find a piece of jewelry made of this crystal, you can just carry this crystal in your pocket and hold it in your hand whenever you need it. 

Black Tourmaline

Black tourmaline is a black, shiny, transparent, hexagonal-shaped crystal that helps alleviate worries and anxiety that appear insuperable. It protects you from bad energy, removes the heavy energy, and transforms it into a lighter vibration. It gets rid of victim mentality. 

For the healing process, wear a piece of jewelry that has this crystal or hold it in your hand and visualize all of your troubles being sucked into the crystal. You will be left feeling relaxed all day long.  

Chrysocolla

Chrysocolla is a green, blue, or turquoise crystal that helps alleviate anxiety associated with social situations and public appearances. It also helps boost confidence and build inner strength. Chrysocolla can help to calm your heart chakra due to nervousness and fear; it evokes inner strength.

For the healing process, place the crystal on the solar chakra to remove feelings of guilt. For clear thinking, place it on the third eye. 

Rose Quartz

Rose quartz is a pink, translucent, or tumbled crystal that is known as a stone of unconditional love. It is strongly associated with the heart chakra. The gentle vibrations it gives off help ease any upset related to emotions and relationships. It increases your feeling of self-love and self-worth. 

For the healing process, wear a piece of jewelry that has rose quartz over your heart. 

How to Use Crystals to Relieve Anxiety and Panic Attacks

There are many different creative ways to use crystals in daily life. Here are just a few ways you can use these crystals to relieve or prevent anxiety and panic attacks:

  • Wear jewelry with crystals to relieve anxiety

  • Keep the crystal in your pocket OR purse

  • Place crystals and stones around the house to clear negative energy and exude positive vibes

  • Place around the bathtub and take a relaxing, anxiety-relieving bath

  • The BEST way to use crystals to reduce anxiety: simply HOLD the stone in your hand while you meditate. I created a specific binaural beat track to help you quickly calm the monkey mind and connect to your Higher Self.  It's tuned to the frequency of 33 Hz (Christ consciousness and the pyramid frequency).   You can grab it here. 

So grab your favorite crystal, listen to the track (with headphones), focus on the tone and set the intention to release all anxiety from your mind, body and soul.

Remember, you came here for a reason. It’s time to find out why.

✨ Be kind. Know your truth. Aim for the light.  ✨
