There's no exact science to enjoying a perfect night's sleep, but there are things that can help you sleep better. It's no secret that a deep sleep of seven to eight hours is essential for staying healthy and fit. Tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, leads to fatigue, concentration problems, and morning irritation. And nobody wants to start the day on the wrong foot, right?
There are countless different methods for getting a peaceful night's sleep—reading a book, drinking tea, or taking a hot bath. However, there's something you can add to this list: crystals. Crystal therapy is an alternative medicine technique in which different types of crystals are used to heal the body and mind. They hold their own energy frequencies, and having them near us directly influences our energy field: some not only alter our emotional well-being but can also heal certain physical issues.
So, if you thought you'd tried everything to end insomnia, keep in mind that keeping some crystals under your pillow while you sleep could be just the thing to help you improve the quality of your rest. Below, we reveal the four stones you should choose for this moment. 3, 2, 1... activate sleep mode!
Angelita
Used to connect with spirituality and facilitate feelings of calm and inner peace, angelite is commonly used to combat insomnia. Place it under your pillow and ask your guardian angels for guidance before bed, so you can receive them while you sleep.
Smoky quartz
Smoky quartz is a grounding stone. It's great for manifesting all your hopes and dreams during sleep (it's said we can heal and improve our lives while we sleep, as we balance our energy and connect with something higher). This crystal is known to help calm the mind and help us fall asleep faster.
Selenite
This is one of the gentlest healing crystals of all time, thanks to its powerful aura-cleansing and external energy cleansing power, promoting calm and balance, and bringing mental clarity. One of its greatest qualities is its ability to transmute stagnant vibrations and blockages that we accumulate throughout the day.
If you're looking for a mineral that instantly cleanses your energy and makes you feel good, selenite is your best choice. Place it under your pillow to cleanse your aura and realign your chakras while you sleep. You'll wake up feeling much more centered and balanced.
Selenite is also known for vibrating at a high frequency, bringing a sense of peace and calm while removing negative energy. It's often used in meditation due to its mystical healing properties. Having it in your bedroom can help create a peaceful atmosphere, removing all tension and worries.
Amethyst
Amethyst is a protective stone that provides relief from stress and anxiety. This crystal helps calm your mind and promote quality sleep at night, connecting with your spirit on a higher level. As a result, you'll have more pleasant and intuitive dreams.
Amethyst connects you to your intuition and subconscious. Try placing it under your pillow to amplify its effects. Keep a dream journal by your bed to try to note where your mind is wandering.
