Meditation? What is this? No, this is not, this is a way to calm down and give up all thoughts, so that for 10-15 minutes our body will disconnect from all problems and be alone with itself. Meditation is good for health, because after calming down for a few minutes, we give the body a rest, at this time blood pressure decreases, heart rate decreases, pulse returns to normal, and cholesterol drops. Perhaps meditation not only calms, but also increases the body's protective functions. It is especially useful to meditate when overloaded at work, emotional distress and chronic fatigue. You can meditate at any age, even if you are well over fifty.
After the sessions you feel a free man, with a certain lightness in your soul, your nerves calm down, your muscles relax, and during the preparation for the session and after it, you have the opportunity to calmly and balancedly find a solution to the problems that have arisen. Meditation with stones is practically the same as yoga, only there a person calms down and “withdraws into himself” in certain poses, often standing on his head, but in this case it is enough to do this by taking his beautiful stone symbols in his hands.
For meditation, you can use a miniature skull carved from quartz, this will allow you to touch the source of wisdom during the session. After all, a crystal skull was often used in ancient rituals and ceremonies of priests; it is believed that the skull has a magical effect and gives a person greater intelligence and harmony.
Meditation should be done in a quiet, secluded place, with the confidence that no one will disturb you or interrupt the session for a few minutes. The session can be carried out sitting on a chair or on the floor, on a pillow or on a mat, you can lie on your back, but lying down you can simply fall asleep. You can sit on the floor and bend your legs into a yoga pose, bringing the heels of your feet together, preferably barefoot. This is a passive meditation method.
For meditation sessions, it is better to use natural, untreated stones. Uncut stones are closer to nature and, in addition, the shape of the stone often determines its metaphysical power. The fragments from large stones have the same properties as the main stone. Stones in the form of intricate convolutions and ingots have their own meaning, they will help you become stronger in spirit and be softer and more flexible in solving problems. Stones with many small crystals on the surface contribute to the development of new abilities in a person. It is best to take phantom stones for meditation; these are stones that grew to a certain size and then stopped growing due to natural influences. But then, due to natural changes, they continued to increase their mass again. Phantom stones promote relaxation in a certain period of life, and then allow you to continue living with renewed energy.
When you take a comfortable position, take your stone in your hands, stroke it with your hands, look at its outline, color, perhaps a pleasant story of your life is connected with it, maybe this is a gift from someone dear to your heart? Then clasp it in your palms or simply hold it open while looking at it intently. You can hold the stone in your hands, or you can place your hands loosely on your knees, and place the stone on your head or shoulders, on the floor in front of you, or on a table. You need to close your eyes and imagine this stone. Throw all thoughts out of your head, as if to fail, go into yourself, leave only the sight of your stone in your thoughts.
Can you mentally immerse yourself entirely in a stone, imagine that you have entered it and what you see there? The light plays, the edges shimmer, you go further and further, a pleasant feeling of freedom, there is no one and nothing around that bothers you so much in life, only stone vaults.
If the stone is colored, say pink agate, then you can immerse yourself in color. What is associated with the color pink is the color of apple trees, a gentle dawn, pink clouds, only pleasant sensations.
When using stones or crystal spheres for meditation, you can simply look at them continuously and try to calmly think about the problem that has arisen and find a solution. Think during the process of meditation how transparent and pure they are, that your mind is sober and your thoughts are pure, you are able to make only the right decisions. After all, problems need to be solved, and not just thought about and burdened by them.
Most people who have meditated with a stone say that at this time they were visited only by positive, pleasant visions and noises. They see the sea, an endless field, the blue sky, birds, and feel the aroma of blooming lilacs and jasmine. Associations are only positive. You can interrupt the session at any time if you think that you have rested enough and have already dumped all the negativity that has accumulated in you, or you are tired of sitting like this.
After the session, you can wash or shower, drink a cup of tea or coffee and calmly go about your daily activities. All day long you will feel extraordinary lightness and be in a good mood.
Selection of crystals. Be careful when buying a crystal! One of the important factors is the tip (sharp and not chipped), it is best that the edges of the tip and the tip itself do not have dents or nicks. Also, the clearer the crystal, the better (with the exception of hairy quartz). This inner transparency is necessary to ensure that your healing energy is transmitted cleanly through the crystal. The choice of crystal is intuitive. What colors do you like? What size crystals are right for you (small ones for healing the body, large ones for meditation)? Which crystals do you prefer, polished or natural cut? How much money are you willing to spend on buying a crystal? Then reach out to the crystal that will answer you. Hold your hand over the crystal. If you feel a push or vibration above him, this is a sign that your energy vibrations are perfectly compatible.
Each of us has both principles: feminine and masculine. Feminine energy in a man allows him to express his feelings and intuition. Masculine energy in a woman stimulates her to creativity and activity. Often this or that energy is blocked. If you wear a crystal on the left side of your body, it will stimulate the Yin - the perceiving, emotional, listening part of yourself. Crystal on right side will activate greater energy, self-confidence, assertiveness, that is, the ability to act in accordance with our desires. In addition, if you want to understand and feel the essence of something, wear the crystal on the left side, and if you need to speak out, then wear it on the right. When you need to learn, study and remember something, hold the crystal in your left hand. You can do this without a crystal and find out for yourself its influence.
During meditation, it is good to hold a quartz crystal in your left hand. Take a deep breath, tense and relax all your muscles. There is also a way to attune to the stone, which will require some persistence. The method is extremely simple. You have to look at a stone until it ceases to be a stone. Look at it, feel it, feel it. At night, place it by your bed so that when you wake up, your eyes will meet it first. Overcome internal resistance and then, when the stone comes to life and pulsates, you will feel that magical power, which is enclosed in stone. You will be able to ask and receive answers. This psychotechnics exists among some Indian tribes who practice magic.
Hold the crystal with both hands. Bring it to your heart, look at it, breathe with it, tune into it. Then close your eyes, gently touch them to the center of your forehead, and hold for two to three minutes. Without opening your eyes, place the crystal in front of you or on your knees with smooth movements. Relax your hands and mentally look at the crystal, imagine it with all its cracks. Imagine your consciousness entering the crystal, and then try to see yourself inside it. Stay there as long as you want. When you feel ready to leave the crystal, do it smoothly, gradually, slowly opening your eyes. You will feel lightness and renewal throughout your body. Sit quietly for five minutes.
Remember, if you are asked to remove a stone to look at it or try it on, the jewelry must be placed on the table so that another person can pick it up from the table and not from your hands. After a person looks at the stone, he must also place it on the table. Otherwise, there is a danger of being “infected” by its negative vibrations. For storage, it is better to use thick, light-proof bags for each stone separately. The bag should be silk or cotton. In such packaging, gems can be stored in one box or box.
The famous scientist and philosopher Pythagoras taught that there is nothing superfluous in nature, all living and nonliving things are related and influence each other. People have always intuitively felt these family ties and, being the most vulnerable creatures on the planet (after all, not a single living creature is susceptible to as many diseases as we are), they sought help and support from living and inanimate nature. They also sought help from minerals. And, imagine, they found it.
Eliaphas Levi argued that stones and humans have a mystical affinity. To enhance this affinity, he suggested "breathing the ether through the stone." To do this, you need to place the stone on your palm and contemplate, imagining that it is shrouded in invisible ether. Pour this ether into your own body, hold it for a few seconds and pour it back into the stone. Thus, according to Levy, information is exchanged between the mineral and the person. The stone begins to understand its owner, his needs, worries, desires and aspirations. With the help of such manipulations, a person can not only become more spiritually perfect, but also be cured of certain diseases or alleviate their course.
Exercise 1
Sit up straight in left hand take a stone, close your eyes and mentally imagine the biofield of the stone. Think that the aura of the stone is beautiful, unique, and exquisite. If after a while you feel a tingling sensation in the hand holding the stone, it means he heard you and is ready for dialogue. But don't rush to start talking to him. Stones are slow and thorough. They need time to decide whether to serve their owner or not. When mental contact with the stone occurs immediately, you can proceed to the next stage.
Exercise 2
Do exercise 1. Lie on your back. Relax and place the stone on the heart area. Mentally imagine the gem and hold the image until the end of the exercise. Remember the happiest moment of your life and try to awaken the feelings that you experienced then. The exercise should last 5-7 minutes. As a rule, the stone takes over a person’s emotions after 2-5 sessions. If, after taking a stone in your hand, you unexpectedly experience the feeling that you demonstrated to it, you can proceed to the third exercise.
Exercise 3
Do the previous exercises in sequence. Move the stone from the area of the heart to the forehead, to the place of the so-called “third eye”. Now you need to completely relax and start receiving signals from the stone. If a golden, lilac or pink glow appears in your mind’s eye, we can assume that the stone has been tuned to your biofield. If you experience discomfort while performing this exercise, the session should be stopped immediately.

The choice of stones for meditation is such a broad topic that it seems unlikely to present it in one material. Perhaps you will need to take a whole esoteric course to fully master this knowledge. But we will try to list and briefly describe fundamental principles, underlying the choice of stones.
We need to start by understanding why we meditate in the first place. After all, meditation is not just a pleasant pastime. This is an act of serious spiritual work, for which we simply need serious auxiliary tools. Therefore, the choice of stones must be approached with maximum responsibility.
Meditation with the “first mineral that comes to hand” will not bring you much harm, but you will not achieve great results either. Another question is how to achieve deep relaxation? How to get rid of this terrible stress that modern high-speed life is always trying to drive us into?
Not everyone manages to enter a meditative state. What is the reason?
The main mistake is the wrong attitude towards spiritual practice: a careless, frivolous attitude towards choosing a place for meditation, towards meditative tools. Elementary - lack of knowledge.
Meanwhile, meditation is an excellent way of timely express rest and relaxation, which is so necessary in our lives. By plunging into the depths of consciousness, organizing thoughts, purifying and strengthening the aura, we discover a colossal source of strength and energy. This is an excellent way to quickly and without financial costs recover from tiring everyday life, relieve stress, and feel like a Human again!
Why are they used in meditation? natural stones?
It only seems that motionless and cold stones are inanimate nature. Very much alive! Each stone has its own vibration frequency and its own level of radiation of a certain energy. Natural minerals have been absorbing the energy of the surrounding world for many centuries. Of course, the strong energy of natural stones has an effect on the human body.
Stones have been used in meditation for centuries. In turn, only meditation allows you to perceive all the energy of the stone and absorb all the most valuable things from it. Essentially, meditation is a higher level of interaction with natural crystals.
What stones are good for meditation?
There are many criteria for choosing stones for meditation:
- stones according to your zodiac sign
- stones according to natural elements
- main chakra stones
- universal stones for meditation
- depending on the type of meditation
- a stone that attracts you (intuitive choice).
Choosing a stone according to natural elements
You can choose a stone for meditation depending on which of the 4 elements your zodiac sign belongs to.
Ancient Chinese philosophy says that each stone belongs to a certain element - Fire, Water, Air, Earth.
They have the appropriate fiery color and have the appropriate properties - these are diamonds and red stones (ruby, garnet, jasper, pyrite, zircon, hematite, red quartz, red tourmaline, agate and others). Natural stones of bright red color are real clots of energy that feed the human aura with powerful flows. Stones of the fire element eliminate stagnation in the body, increase activity and significantly improve well-being.
As a rule, they are opaque, but quite bright, energy-intensive, carrying a large volume of life-giving earthly energy.
This category of stones includes jasper, malachite, jadeite, jet, obsidian, cacholong, aventurine, and turquoise. Minerals of the Earth element help representatives of earth signs maintain health and vitality, and also give them great forces to satisfy their insatiable thirst for knowledge.
They are a group of energetically strong minerals - rock crystal, blue chalcedony, amethyst, alexandrite, sapphire, smoky quartz, citrine, rose quartz, carnelian, topaz, chrysoprase, tourmaline, golden beryl, peridot, jade, adularia, rhodonite, lapis lazuli. It is this group of minerals that helps air signs zodiac sign to quickly immerse yourself in meditation, work as fruitfully as possible with flows of information, experience deep and vivid emotions, relieve psychological stress, eliminate insomnia and nervous disorders.
Most often they are transparent, have variegated, changeable colors, and often shimmer and shimmer. Such stones include opal, fluorite, pearl, chrysoberyl, emerald, aquamarine, selenite, amber, coral, etc.
“Water” stones help representatives of the water element to reach the depths of consciousness during meditation, as well as get rid of melancholic moods and keep their body in good shape.
Please note that some minerals relate to all four natural elements, for example, quartz eye stones ( hawk eye, cat eye, tiger's eye, etc.).
Universal stones for meditation
Universal stones are the strongest natural minerals that are suitable for meditation for absolutely everyone.
Very often quartz minerals are used in meditative practices - crystalline quartz, amethyst, smoky quartz, citrine, as well as all eye stones (cat's eye, tiger's eye, hawk's eye). All calcites are also suitable for meditation. These stones are well known to everyone and they are quite accessible. Quartz is widely used in the manufacture jewelry, which can also be used in meditation.
Very often, such well-known and popular stones as obsidian and amber are used to immerse oneself in a deep meditative state.
Amber is one of the powerful, versatile stones for meditation. According to its characteristics, the sun stone is ideal for absolutely all people for meditative exercises and raising their spirits. Amber with inclusions (insects) is considered the most valuable for meditation.
– one of the most popular stones, which is widely used for meditation all over the world. IN Ancient India and in Tibet, rock crystal is considered the most powerful magic stone, whose energy field is unique. Tibetan lamas consider rock crystal crystals to be “alive”, since their natural pyramidal shape reaches straight into space with its top. They use rock crystal balls to open the “third” eye and regulate energy field person.
Crystal balls are also used to predict the future. They are placed in a dark room, into which a bright beam of light penetrates, and they try to read the signs of the future that appear in the ball under the influence of light phenomena.
Yoga experts recommend that women use “stones” when meditating. feminine energy» – moonstone, rose quartz and pearls. According to ancient Indian practice, a spirit lives in every animal, plant and stone. These 3 stones are carriers of the feminine spirit and contribute to the development of femininity. These minerals can also be used regularly as versatile meditation stones. Normalization of feminine energy will very quickly affect external data - the condition of the skin and hair will noticeably improve. Psychological balance works real miracles for us!
These are minerals with which you will always feel calm, as if you are under reliable protection. This provides the basis for complete relaxation and deep immersion in a meditative state.
Stones for various types of meditation
The choice of stone may also be determined by the type of meditation.
Light meditation – short, aimed at relieving stress and quickly achieving relaxation. These are standard and widespread types of meditative practices based on breathing exercises without deep immersion into the expanses of consciousness. Light meditations also include morning and evening meditations (before bed), moving meditations, audio meditations and video meditations using color therapy.
For such procedures, select stones with soft and light energy - these are almost all stones green(turquoise, chrysoprase, jade, chrysoberyl, etc.). Also, such purely “feminine” stones as pearls, mother-of-pearl, moonstone, rauchtopaz (smoky quartz), citrine and others are ideal for light meditation.
Deep meditations – complete disconnection from the world, reaching the farthest depths of consciousness. This is the most active form of meditation, available only to experienced and long-time practitioners. For deep meditations, it is necessary to use only the most powerful and powerful stones. These include rock crystal, amber, diamond, topaz, ruby, sapphire, agate, aquamarine, malachite, cat's eye, rose quartz and others.
What shape should stones used in meditative practices have?
Pyramid shape– as you know, pyramids are “antennas” of the Universe, tuned to the vibrations of the subtle world. The entire globe, including the underwater world, is literally dotted with pyramids.
Why are pyramid shaped crystals good for meditation?
The act of meditation is essentially gathering energy. With the use of pyramids of the correct shape, concentration and energy collection occurs much faster, and all exercises are much easier and more effective. Pyramids, carved from solid pieces of minerals, are ideal for meditative practices. Jade and agate pyramids are widely used. Rock crystal pyramids are especially valuable.
The pyramidal shape of the stone ensures stable and thorough circulation of energy through all energy centers of the human body. Very often, meditation pyramids are stored on bedside tables, which is favorable good sleep and good rest.
Spherical shape– the power of stones is well revealed in the form of a sphere. It is no coincidence that in any magic salon there are crystal or onyx balls. A rock crystal ball is the most famous “magic crystal”, a model of supersensible perception and intuition. Since time immemorial it has been used by magicians and clairvoyants to predict the future.
Crystal balls are an excellent tool for diving into the depths of consciousness, containing magical energy. The sun's rays passing through crystal ball, become healing. Meditation on a crystal ball helps to quickly stop the internal dialogue, relax the brain, and relieve tension. After just a few minutes of meditation, thinking becomes sharp and clear.
Irregular shape– rough, irregularly shaped stones are ideal for meditation. Their unusual natural appearance adds natural magic to this ritual. For meditation, raw clear quartz of natural shape is used.
Druze- this is a lot of fused crystals. Despite their chaotic location, they live next to each other in complete harmony. Why is druse so valuable in meditation? This form of crystal is the strongest emitter and transformer of energy. Druse has only a positive effect on the environment and is great for cleansing the aura. Also, during meditation, you can cleanse objects that are easily placed on a friend, for example, jewelry that is worn every day and on which a lot of different information accumulates. They can be cleaned during meditation. Druses are well programmed for specific tasks and even several tasks! After all, a druse is a set of crystals united on one base. This means that the shape of the crystal is suitable for solving several problems at once.
Seer Stone– this is any transparent quartz, polished naturally with water. Such minerals have pleasant rounded shapes, therefore, in addition to meditation, they are successfully used for scrying (clairvoyance through a crystal ball). With the help of a seer stone, you can reveal details of the distant past and see the horizons of the future. The seer stone deeply immerses the meditator into his own “I” and easily “transports” us to different periods of time, contributing to the acquisition of new knowledge.
Crystal scepter- This is a thin crystal, the top of which has a cone shape. Main hallmark scepter - the crystal grows from a thinner form to a thicker one. Moreover, both the top and the base of the crystal (reverse scepter) can be thickened, creating the impression of a “hilt”.
The scepter is a special form of crystal that connects us with the wisdom of the Universe, transmitting high vibrations. Scepter crystals were symbols of spiritual power in Lemuria and Atlantis.
The scepter crystal is used in meditation to quickly expand consciousness, as well as for a powerful mental message. Its unique form perfectly transforms the images of simple human thinking into the highest images of the spiritual sphere. The crystal generates and amplifies energy that processes all clots of negative energy. The scepter has unique ability tune in to absolutely any body and direct your healing energy. The scepter eliminates pathological conditions and restores energy both on the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels.
Quartz sticks– long transparent crystals of natural origin or faceted. Meditation with a quartz wand will help you understand the real cause of your poor psychological state and find a way to quickly transform it. This is a subtle and effective tool for achieving complete concentration on a task and increasing energy in a certain direction.
Abundance Crystal- This is a long crystal, on the body of which nature has formed many small crystals. The main task and purpose of the abundance crystal is to tune its owner to programs that lead to the shortest possible path to wealth and material well-being. Regular meditation helps to attract wealth and abundance into the life of its owner.
Laser quartz is a long, untreated quartz crystal with a wide base that gradually tapers to a top formed by small edges. Laser quartz may be slightly curved. It is one of the most powerful tools through which the flow of energy is transmitted. Experts strongly recommend handling laser quartz very carefully and not pointing it at people or yourself without a specific setting. Laser quartz is a very powerful tool for concentrating energy into a dense beam of colossal power. That's why the crystal is called a laser. Laser quartz is one of the best human protectors from negative external influences.
Sheet quartz– a flat transparent crystal of natural origin. In nature it usually forms between two other crystals. Meditation with leaf quartz promotes deep self-knowledge, helps to reveal paranormal abilities, achieve clearer visualization and obtain information that is relevant at the moment. Leaf quartz opens a window to parallel worlds and other dimensions.
Raw crystals of irregular shape have many more varieties - this is a real storehouse of high-precision energy-structural tools, without which high-level meditative practices are indispensable.
Perhaps the main experts in the use of natural minerals in meditation are the people of India. It was from this country that the experience of spiritual practices, working with chakras, and meditation techniques came to us. Ancient Indian books on medicine (100 BC) list stones that were considered the most effective healing agents and were used in meditative exercises. It also indicates which stones should be used depending on the month of birth: January - garnet, February - amethyst, March - aquamarine, April - diamond, May - emerald, June - pearl, July - turquoise, August - sardonyx, September - sapphire, October – opal and tourmaline, November – topaz, December – turquoise.
In Ayurvedic medicine, both in ancient times and currently, 9 are used for therapeutic purposes. precious stones: pearl, cat's eye, coral, onyx, diamond, carbuncle, ruby, emerald, topaz. These stones are widely used during meditation. Their healing power has been tested for centuries.
You can choose a stone for meditation purely intuitively. Do you doubt your intuition? Completely in vain. Intuition is emotional intelligence that copes with its task much faster than the brain.
On an intuitive level, the choice of a suitable stone is based on the laws of harmony - visually we only like what suits us in terms of energy! Conversely, you will never like a stone that does not suit you. When we, as they say, have a soul for a stone, this means that our body at the level of atoms and cells interacts with the energy of the healing stone! This feeling is difficult to explain in words, but in practice you will immediately feel it.
You need to hold each stone that you like in your hands, passing your energy through it. A stone that immediately attracted your attention and caused a storm of emotions should be boldly taken and used during meditation, since it sets you up for positive emotions. Do not take a stone that does not evoke positive emotions, even if it is written in your horoscope.
Everything that surrounds us is in a state of constant vibration, including ourselves. Even if we don’t know it or forget it, everything vibrates and emits waves. But sometimes we have an “epiphany” and a small miracle happens - we suddenly realize that everything around us is alive, and we begin to see life differently! We discover beauty in a whole new light. Our soul opens up to beauty! Natural minerals can give just such a powerful boost. And then everything around comes to life - nature, the Universe, music...
It is impossible to predict in advance which stone you will like: transparent or opaque, bright or pale. It is completely unknown what will cause a reaction in you - the cosmic shimmer of opals or the bizarre broken lines of agates, a riot of shades of tourmaline or the silvery haze of aquamarine.
The intuitive method of choosing stones for meditation is best done where there is a large selection - in an online store or a specialized store selling gems. It is here, among this luxurious multicolor, that your stone will stand out especially clearly. Rest assured, you will certainly feel this signal. Nature itself will send it to you!
All our “favorite” colors, shapes, symbols are nothing more than the result of resonant phenomena. Intuitively, we like the color vibration that at the moment necessary for our body. It's always better to trust yours inner voice and intuition than fashion trends. If you blindly obey someone else's opinion, you can cause great harm to yourself.
How many stones can you use during meditation?
When meditating, it is not necessary to work with only one crystal. Moreover, experts almost always use a combination of stones: rock crystal with amethyst, onyx with lapis lazuli, and so on. You need to combine stones and crystals carefully. First, each stone must undergo a fairly lengthy individual meditative study. Only after this experience can you try to combine stones, creating any combinations according to your desire and feelings. In meditation techniques, it is often practiced to create “places of power” around oneself, when an imaginary circle is created from stones, within which the meditator is located, concentrating the energy of all minerals on himself.
What stones should not be used for meditation?
By the way, about the harm. Are all natural stones equally useful for meditation?
To one degree or another, everyone. But here the individual component comes into play. In meditation practice, you cannot use stones that you do not like. You cannot use other people's minerals that belong to other people.
Damaged minerals (with chips, cracks, cloudiness and all kinds of damage) are not suitable for meditation. The energy structure of these crystals is destroyed, and such specimens are strictly forbidden to be used.
How long can a meditation stone last?
It depends on the power of the crystal used, on the depth and complexity of spiritual practices. In general, one stone can be used in meditation from several months to several years. Particularly powerful crystals, such as rock crystal, onyx, green quartz and others, can last the entire life of their owner! Weak minerals may not withstand heavy loads if the owner's aura is subjected to powerful negative impact. In this case, the energy structure of the stone may collapse - it will split, crack, or numerous dark spots will appear on it. This mineral should absolutely not be used!
But there is another reason to change the stone. Step by step, opening your consciousness, comprehending the levels of spiritual growth, you need to use new and stronger tools. Once you feel completely satisfied with the meditation practice using one mineral, you have reached a certain energetic height, and for further growth it is recommended to change it to another one that you have not yet worked with. Each new stone brings a new level to your energy budget, opening up a whole new dimension.
Stones can and should be changed!
Perhaps all the main criteria for choosing stones for meditation are listed.
With “your” stone you can meditate on anything: attracting love, healing from illnesses, rapid career growth and achieving material well-being.
For beginners, experts strongly recommend mandatory use natural stones when meditating, as they can “teach” you to meditate more deeply and successfully, since the subtle energy of crystals allows you to communicate with the subtle energies of consciousness.

Choose the minerals that are right for you and be sure to use them during meditation. This will allow you to look deep into yourself, calm down and relieve stress, and understand the causes of your problems and poor health. Ultimately, regular meditation allows you to achieve spiritual harmony, so desired and so necessary!
Meditation is beneficial in all your endeavors: psychological, mental, emotional and spiritual. Physically, meditation relaxes the body and relieves tension, slowing the heart rate and lowering blood pressure. It reduces stress and calms you down, giving you a feeling of calm and serenity.
Meditation helps clear away the negative emotions that have accumulated in your heart, replacing them with feelings of love, kindness and peace. Spiritually, meditation allows you to achieve highest state consciousness, in which access to a higher realm is open, giving a huge meaning in which previously there are unprecedented solutions, answers and ideas that will lift you above the ordinary.
There are many other reasons why meditation is so powerful, such as: developing intuition, exploring higher feelings and meanings, clearing the mind and emotions, finding your spiritual path, helping to change your life, controlling feelings and thoughts, their expression, penetrating into the depths of your own I am in search of hidden beginnings. These are just a few examples of what meditation can do.
Some people use crystals and stones to help them enter a state of meditation. For example:
Calming blue stones, such as , will help clear your mind and relax your body.
Purple and transparent stones, such as , are pure and will help you achieve higher feelings and meanings.
Stones or crystals can be hand-held or on a chain during meditation, you absorb their properties. They can be prepared before the meditation begins, helping to maintain concentration. One stone can be placed in the heart chakra area for emotional balance or in the third eye chakra area for mental clarity.
There is no right or wrong way to meditate. It doesn't matter how you do it, but meditation requires two things: an atmosphere of silence and ways to relax the body and clear the mind, such as breathing techniques, visualization, and the musical repetition of "Ommmm."
However, any healing stone can be used during meditation.
Meditation with quartz crystal:
- Lie face up on a bed, floor or other surface in the apartment.
- Place a smoky quartz crystal on your lower abdomen for an earthly experience in physical reality.
- Then place a citrine crystal on your navel to relax your body.
- Next, place the rose quartz mineral over the heart to remove negative emotions from the heart, allowing positive energy into it.
- Place an amethyst crystal on your forehead for awareness of being.
- Finally, place the pointed end of the clear quartz crystal towards the top of your head. This stimulates the crown chakra, the highest point of energy in the body, causing the higher centers of consciousness to vibrate and open.
- When all the crystals are on their poetry, close your eyes and imagine how the energy from the stones enters your body, chakras and aura.
Next, imagine how the golden healing energy of citrine emanating from the stone penetrates your body. Feel how the flow of energy passes through your entire body, cleanses, relaxes, heals it, giving off its warmth.
Feel the tension in your relaxed muscles. Feel how much lighter your body is than it was. Feel like you are floating on a golden cloud.
Next, concentrate on rose quartz. Imagine this pink energy of love flowing around your body, opening your heart center, and releases all the negative emotions and feelings that have been weighing you down. As these emotions leave your body, feel the warmth and loving energy of rose quartz. Feel this spreading throughout your body, feel yourself arriving at peace with this energy.
Feel how the heavy burden on your heart has disappeared and you feel harmony, ascension and peace. Your heart feels light, as does your body. 
Now imagine the violet energy of the amethyst emanating from the stone. Imagine how it circles around your head. Feel it move down your face, first relax your forehead and open your eyes and mouth.
Imagine the third eye on your forehead as violet energy penetrates inside. Feel the energy that is absorbed into your head, pushing out all your thoughts, fears and worries. Feel how calm, quiet and serene you have become. Think of it as an open book, blank pages, be prepared to feel that any knowledge has been gained.
Feel that the crown of your head is open and ready for meditation. Imagine the light energy of the quartz crystal flowing from your stone and swirling around you.

If you have never worked with stones, then it is best to choose a stone to begin with purely by intuition, without becoming familiar with its meaning.
When you purchase a stone, wash it under running water, washing away the previous energy. Tune in to it, feel that kamen is a mineral that has lived in the depths of the Earth for a long time, that it is much older than you and wiser, that it has unbending strength and intention, and carries certain qualities that manifest themselves in nature and the Earth, and that many people possess these qualities to varying degrees, and now you have in your hands some of this knowledge, and some information structure that can help you strengthen or gain the qualities inherent in this element. Try to determine for yourself what qualities he carries from your point of view. Feel what energy you receive from it, whether it fills you with joy, gives you a surge of strength, strengthens your inner core or brings peace, or maybe vice versa.
If the energy of the stone is close to you, then leave it for work; if not, put it aside for a while, or give it to someone.
For someone who has been familiar with stones for a long time and understands their meaning, you just need to choose the stone that will help you now in working on yourself.
Once the stone is chosen, prepare a space for meditation. Sit in a meditative position, take the stone in your hands, tune in to a positive interaction with it, tune in to it, listen to it, feel your sensations. Start immersing yourself in the center of the stone, in its meaning, in the qualities that it carries. Merge with these meanings, with its energy, feel the inviolability, inflexibility of these meanings. See how the information that is embedded in the stone begins to appear in your aura, in your mind, and penetrates your life, then it intensifies and becomes denser. 
So, for example, if you chose an amethyst and its spiritual aspect, then visualize how the radiance emanating from the stone fills your palms and arms with spiritual energy and goes through your body, captures your aura and strengthens your field. If you have chosen the protection aspect of amethyst, then imagine how its field builds a field around you that protects you. Thus, when choosing a stone, you can also choose its aspect that you now want to strengthen in your field, in your life.
When you finish your work, with love and care put the stone in a box or a bag prepared for it, you can wear it around your neck, or work in the evenings to enhance the aspect for 9, 18, 21 days.
