Replace Negative Energy with Positive Energy!
- Empaths can soak bad energy up
- Crystals can surround you in light
- Stay protected from bad energy
So much more than just a pretty face, healing crystals also come with plenty of protective properties too. Life is a wild ride and when times are tough, there can be a lot of tricky energies flying about and for empaths it can be all too easy to soak up these negative energies like a sponge.
While connecting to other people’s energy is a beautiful skill to have, there are times when it can be a chore. Empaths are often left feeling burnout, emotionally exhausted, and dragged down by external weights unless they have some form of protection or spiritual boundaries in place. Energy is forever coming at us from all angles; it could be the remnants of someone else’s bad day, toxic feelings and thought patterns, ill fortune, or even just the stars or planets doing some weird stuff out there. Add to the fact that energy is everywhere, and it becomes even more essential to keep yourself protected and standing in your power.
Healing crystals can help keep you surrounded in a positive forcefield of light. These precious stones are rich in bright vibrations and high frequencies which can provide a protective layer that is tricky for those bad vibes to breakthrough. Not only do crystals keep you safe and well-guarded, but they are also busy keeping your chakras cracked right open. Protective crystals are super clever, some grant protection by cloaking you whereas others deflect bad juju and shift the energy around your space so that it turns from dark to light.
If you want to keep yourself protected from psychic attacks and let that bad juju roll off you like water from a ducks back, then keep reading to find out which protective crystals are here to lend a hand.
