Highly Protective Stones for Guarding the Spirit

When you feel like you've been taking on too much and feel overwhelmed with emotion, it's hard to function in everyday life. It's important to deal with your feelings and practice self-care. Some wellness routines can include meditation, exercise, proper sleep, art, music, journaling, and even working with crystals.

Crystals can help you to maintain a positive focus on something while you process through your emotions, and help you better cope with life. Crystals also have beautiful, soothing, and nurturing energies that can help you through tough times.

Some crystals can protect you against harmful energies. Maybe there is a negative influence in your life, a toxic person, or negative belief systems that have been holding you back. Whether you are feeling down, overwhelmed, or depleted, that's a sign to take care of yourself and do things that bring you joy. Working with these protection stones can help you maintain your balance and shield you from outside influences so you can live your best life. Here are some of the best protection stones that you can try.

1. Obsidian. Wear this stone or place it around the home to protect against negative energy. Place in your windows and close to the door to keep out harmful energies and bring peace into the home.

2. Black Tourmaline. This stone protects you from harmful Electro Magnetic Frequencies (EMFs) which come from cell phone towers, computers, TVs, and other electronics. Place close to electronics to absorb some of the harmful frequencies.

3. Black Kyanite. Protects your energy field and your well-being. It will help you set boundaries with difficult people who may not take no for an answer or who push your boundaries. It helps you stay strong in knowing that you are the only one who knows what's best for you and what you need to live a happy life.

4. Black Onyx. Helps transform negative energy into positive energy and build emotional resilience. It helps in processing your feelings. Hold while you're meditating or processing emotions or when journaling to express and release your emotions.

5. Pyrite. This stone returns negative energy to the senders. So if you're dealing with someone who's always bringing you down, this stone will protect you and help you to walk away from people who aren't in your best interest.

As you work with and become more familiar with these protective crystals, you'll find yourself intuitively knowing what to do with them and which crystal you need for a specific purpose. Just tune in to the vibrations of what you are feeling and sense which crystal you're guided to assist you in getting the protection and clearing you to need.
