Journey Into Crystals Collection

A simple guide to working with your 12-stone collection

Welcome to your crystal journey! Whether you're brand new to crystals or just want a refresher, this guide will walk you through how to connect with and use each of the 12 stones in your kit.

There’s no one “right” way to work with crystals — it’s about intention, exploration, and finding what resonates with you.
Let’s get started!

Caring for Your Crystals

Think of your crystals like a battery — they hold energy, but that energy can run low.

Just like we recharge our own energy with rest, your stones also need occasional clearing and recharging. I teach my clients to use their intuition or muscle testing to check when a crystal may need a reset. If something feels “off” or you’ve used a stone during a heavy time, that’s often your sign.

One of the simplest ways to recharge and cleanse your stones is to place them in a sunny windowsill or outside in the sunlight for about 30 minutes. That’s usually plenty of time to refresh their energy without risk of fading (though I recommend keeping amethyst and fluorite out of direct sun).

Here are a few other gentle methods I personally use:

  • Selenite stick – This is one of my favorite tools. Just place your other stones near or on the stick for a simple, no-fuss cleanse.
  • Smoke – Pass your stones through the smoke of palo santo or sage to clear energy.
  • Sound – A chime, bell, or even your voice (yes, your voice has frequency!) can be used to shift energy around your stones.

3 Simple Ways to Use Crystals

1. Carry or Wear Them

One of the easiest ways to start working with crystals is to simply keep one with you. Tumbled stones or pocket hearts are great for this — you can tuck them in your pocket, place them in a purse or bag, or even keep one in your car’s cupholder. Many people also love wearing stone bracelets or necklaces to stay connected to that stone’s energy throughout the day.

If you find yourself drawn to a particular stone in the morning, that’s often the one your body needs most — trust that nudge.

2. Create a Quiet Moment

Crystals are wonderful tools for grounding and stillness. You might hold a palm stone or therapy stone while journaling, praying, meditating, or just taking a few deep breaths. I often recommend keeping one nearby while watching TV, listening to music, or reading — especially if you're someone who finds comfort in touch.

Running your fingers across the surface of a stone or simply holding it in your palm can bring a sense of calm and connection, even when life is busy around you.

3. Place Them with Purpose

This is one of the most powerful — and often overlooked — ways to actually use your crystals. If you keep them tucked away in a box or drawer, chances are you’ll forget about them or never reach for them. Crystals work best when they’re part of your daily rhythm.

Instead, place them where you’ll see them and interact with them — near your favorite chair, beside your bed, on your desk, or even in the kitchen while you’re making tea or coffee.
Let your tools become part of your surroundings — their stable frequency is most effective when it’s integrated into your daily environment, not saved for a big ritual or special moment.

Meet the 12 Stones in Your Collection

The stones in this collection were carefully chosen for their stability, versatility, and accessibility — making them ideal tools for anyone just starting out.

You’ll notice that they’re listed in a specific order. That’s intentional. We begin with foundational stones like clear quartz, move through emotional and motivational tools like rose quartz and citrine, and finish with deeper grounding and cleansing stones like black tourmaline and selenite.

This progression mirrors how many people experience their crystal journey: starting with awareness, moving into personal growth, and finally learning how to maintain their energy and space.
Let’s get to know each stone — one at a time.

Clear Quartz – The Amplifier

Key Words:
Clarity • Focus • Amplification • Versatility • Intention Setting

Clear Quartz is one of the most well-known and widely used tools in the crystal world — and for good reason. Its frequency is stable, neutral, and deeply responsive to intention. That means it’s excellent for magnifying the energy of other stones or for holding space when you're working on clarity and focus in your own life.

How to Use It:

  • Hold it when you want to set or reinforce a specific intention
  • Pair it with another stone to amplify that stone’s frequency
  • Keep it near your desk or journaling space for mental clarity

Amethyst – The Calming Tool

Key Words:
Peace • Spiritual Insight • Restful Sleep • Intuition • Soothing Energy

Amethyst has a gentle, steady frequency that supports rest, inner reflection, and emotional balance. It’s often one of the first stones people feel drawn to — and for good reason. Whether you’re looking to wind down, connect inward, or clear anxious thoughts, this is a helpful tool to keep close.

How to Use It:

  • Place it beside your bed to support restful sleep
  • Use it during meditation or prayer for deeper focus
  • Keep it nearby when emotions feel overwhelming or scattered

Rose Quartz – The Heart Opener

Key Words:
Compassion • Self-Love • Emotional Healing • Gentleness • Connection

Rose Quartz is often called the “stone of love,” but it’s really about more than romance — it’s about softening toward yourself and others. This tool is ideal for emotional healing, offering calm in the middle of intensity, and encouraging healthy connection. Its frequency is warm, nurturing, and forgiving.

How to Use It:

  • Hold it during moments of emotional overwhelm or sadness
  • Keep it on your nightstand or by your bathroom mirror to encourage daily self-kindness
  • Use it as a reminder that healing doesn’t require perfection — just presence


Green Aventurine – The Optimist

Key Words:
Renewal • Growth • Optimism • Emotional Balance • Opportunity

Green Aventurine is all about fresh energy. It encourages movement, hope, and confidence in taking the next step — even if you don’t know exactly where you’re going yet. I often refer to it as a “gentle motivator” because it nudges you forward without pressure.

How to Use It:

  • Keep it in your pocket when starting something new
  • Hold it while writing out your goals or vision for the future
  • Place it somewhere visible as a reminder to trust the process

Citrine – The Uplifter

Key Words:
Joy • Confidence • Abundance • Motivation • Personal Power

Citrine is known for its sunny, energizing frequency — it’s a tool that helps shift stagnation and boost clarity, especially when you’re feeling stuck or unmotivated. It's often linked to prosperity, but just as often, it's about believing in your own ability to grow.

How to Use It:

  • Keep it on your desk or creative space to encourage focus and drive
  • Carry it with you when you need a boost of self-confidence
  • Use it during goal-setting, vision boarding, or when working through fear or procrastination

Carnelian – The Encourager

Key Words:
Creativity • Courage • Vitality • Action • Passion

Carnelian carries a steady, energizing frequency that’s great for creative flow, movement, and boldness. If you’re someone who tends to hesitate, hold back, or overthink, this tool encourages you to take that next right step with courage. It’s especially helpful when you're building momentum or stepping into something new.

How to Use It:

  • Carry it when speaking publicly or making a big decision
  • Keep it nearby while doing something creative — writing, painting, planning
  • Use it when you want to feel grounded and energized at the same time


Fluorite – The Focus Tool

Key Words:
Mental Clarity • Concentration • Balance • Structure • Calm Thinking

Fluorite is known for its ability to support clear thought and focused attention. It’s especially helpful when you’re feeling mentally cluttered or emotionally overwhelmed. This stone offers a stabilizing frequency that can help you organize your thoughts and make decisions with a bit more ease.

How to Use It:

  • Keep it nearby while working, studying, or doing anything that requires focus
  • Use it when you feel scattered, distracted, or overwhelmed
  • Hold it while journaling if you’re trying to gain clarity on something


Smoky Quartz – The Grounder

Key Words:
Stability • Protection • Emotional Release • Calm Strength • Energy Clearing

Smoky Quartz is one of the best tools for grounding and releasing heavy energy. It has a stabilizing frequency that can help you feel anchored when life feels chaotic. While it’s gentle in its energy, it’s also powerful when it comes to clearing away mental fog and emotional buildup.

How to Use It:

  • Keep it in your pocket when you’re in stressful or overstimulating environments
  • Use it during a quiet moment to release anxious or unhelpful thoughts
  • Place it near your front door or workspace for steady, protective energy

Black Tourmaline – The Protector

Key Words:
Grounding • Protection • Boundaries • Energy Shield • Stabilizing

Black Tourmaline is one of the most trusted tools for energetic protection. It’s known for creating a kind of “barrier” between your energy and anything that feels draining, heavy, or simply not yours to carry. It’s especially helpful for people who tend to absorb the emotions or stress of others.

How to Use It:

  • Carry it when you’ll be around crowds or intense environments
  • Place it near your front door or in a shared space to help maintain healthy energetic boundaries
  • Use it when you need to reset after a long day of people or overstimulation

Hematite – The Stabilizer

Key Words:
Strength • Grounding • Balance • Centering • Physical Presence

Hematite is a dense, iron-rich tool that feels as solid and steady as it looks. Its frequency supports physical grounding — helping you feel present in your body, especially when your energy feels scattered. It’s excellent for centering yourself before important conversations, decisions, or transitions.

How to Use It:

  • Hold it during a stressful moment to feel more anchored and calm
  • Carry it when you need to stay clear-headed or focused
  • Use it before bed if your thoughts are racing or you feel “floaty”

Indian Turquoise – The Truth Speaker

Key Words:
Communication • Honesty • Wisdom • Protection • Alignment

Indian Turquoise (a trade name for certain blue-green stones sourced from India) is often associated with clarity of communication and personal truth. It encourages you to speak with intention — but also to listen. Its grounding yet expressive frequency makes it a valuable tool for both emotional expression and thoughtful decision-making.

How to Use It:

  • Keep it nearby during conversations that require clarity and honesty
  • Hold it before journaling or prayer to help express what you really feel
  • Carry it when you're working on confidence around communication or setting boundaries

Selenite – The Cleanser

Key Words:
Clarity • Energy Clearing • Lightness • Reset • Flow

Selenite has one of the most stable, high-frequency vibrations of any stone in this kit — which is why it’s often used to cleanse and recharge other stones. I call it the “reset button” of your crystal tools. It doesn’t need to be cleansed itself, and it’s ideal for clearing your personal energy after a long day or intense situation.

How to Use It:

  • Place your other stones near or on the stick to refresh their energy
  • Hold it when you want to feel clear, light, and focused
  • Use it to “sweep” your energy field by gently passing it around your body (especially over your head, shoulders, and heart)
