Lithotherapy use of crystals
You are attracted by Lithotherapy. You may own stones and crystals. The questions jostle: how to use the stones in everyday life? Can you wear such a stone with such another? How does Lithotherapy work and do the stones really work?
Here's what you need to know to get started with the Stones and benefit from their immense Energy in your daily life.
Lithotherapy: how does it work?
The use of crystals for their energetic properties is a very old practice. Each stone has always been used for a specific purpose: to be protected in battle, to travel serenely to the afterlife after death or to improve one's health. The rarest and most precious Stones, worn as jewelry or decorative, were also a symbol of a person's social status or rank in society - like the Lapis Lazuli so dear to Cleopatra.
These ancient uses inspire the energetic work that can be done with stones and crystals today.
Each Stone, each Crystal has a vibration, an Energy of its own which resonates with your own Energy. When this Energy comes into contact with the body or is close to the body, it stimulates the feeling of calm and well-being.
The Stones each have a unique vibratory signature. This makes it possible to use them to achieve a wide variety of goals:
• feel protected,
• improve his mood,
• to relax,
• heal emotionally,
• letting go, letting go of negative feelings,
• awaken your intuition.
People who use Lithotherapy turn to their Stones and Crystals to be helped and supported in every occasion of life: find a better quality of sleep, soothe a broken heart, increase self-confidence... Every problem has its crystal! 🙂
How to choose a Stone?
One of the methods you can use to choose a stone or crystal is to select a Stone that corresponds to a particular Chakra.
Ask yourself which Chakra needs to be cleaned or balanced and choose the Stones according to the color/vibration match:
• Root Chakra : anchoring, security -> Red color : red jasper, red garnet, red carnelian
• Sacred Chakra: creativity, progression, sexual energy -> Orange color: orange carnelian, orange calcite
• Solar Plexus Chakra: self-confidence, inner strength, motivation -> Yellow color: amber, citrine
• Heart Chakra: Compassion, Love, Acceptance -> Green Color: Jade, Green Tourmaline, Amazonite, Aquamarine
• Throat Chakra: truth, communication, oral expression -> Light Blue Color: Turquoise, Blue Lace Agate, Angelite
• 3rd Eye Chakra: Intuition, wisdom, imagination -> Dark blue/indigo color: Lapis Lazuli, Sodalite, Azurite
• Crown Chakra: Consciousness, Spirituality, Connection to the Universe and the Guides -> Violet Color: Amethyst, Violet Fluorite, Charoite
Let your Intuition guide you
The second technique works particularly well in a mineral exchange. You stroll through the aisles, you click on the product sheets, you admire Stones and Crystals and suddenly... you feel attracted by the brightness, color or shape of this or that stone. Then listen to your intuition: why this Stone rather than another? To which Chakra does it correspond? What is its indication in Lithotherapy?
Take the Stone in your hand: if it seems light, you probably need its vibratory signature. If it seems heavy, it is not the Stone for you at this precise moment.
The shape of the stone is also important for a good choice:
• A small round stone, or rolled stone, is perfect to keep in your pocket or bag,
• A pointed stone is indicated to direct the Energy towards you or away from you, or to massage energy points on the body,
• A sphere as for it diffuses its Energy in all directions, like a soothing halo.
Associating a stone with its objective
A final way to select a Crystal is to think about the energetic properties you are looking for and find the Stones and Crystals that match this objective. In the Boutique, you will find bags of Stones selected for their properties and synergy. They can help you to :
• find the Soul mate,use lithotherapy stones,
• develop your Intuition,
• take care of your Chakras,
• reach your full potential, according to your Astrological sign,
• protect you,
• communicate with your Guardian Angel...

How to use Stones and Crystals?
Many people like to meditate by placing a Stone next to them during their meditation. If you prefer to relax lying down, you can place your stone on a part of your body that is particularly tense.
Taking a stone in your hands and making a conscious effort to feel its Energy also works very well. Then ask your Stone to help you with this or that objective, and visualize the results.
You can quite keep your Stones on you during the day so that you have them on hand when you feel the need to take them in your hand and feel their Energy. A small stone can invite itself in your bra, close to the heart and its energy center.
Stones can of course be worn as jewelry.
You can also position the Stones strategically in your environment. Keep a Positive Energy Stone in the office to stay Zen and calm in any circumstance; slip a protective stone in your car to travel serenely. Your bedside table can accommodate the crystals that will help you to find calm nights. A stone in the four corners of the house stimulates stability and protection.
Stones are decorative and energetic elements. Do not leave them locked in a box or a cupboard 😉
Finally, do not forget the primary function of the Stones: to provide you with well-being. So, if you want to wear such a stone with such another, to associate your Labradorite with your Fluorite: go ahead! Test this combination for yourself and for your current purpose. Working with Stones is also an intuitive practice so... practice 🙂
How to take care of your Stones and Crystals?
When a Stone enters your home, it is best to clean it before using it. The cleaning is to be practiced regularly, so that your Stones and Crystals do not collect stagnant or negative Energies.
To clean your Stones, you can use different methods such as rinsing them with water or placing them in salt for a few hours. After cleaning, you proceed to recharge the Stones, at Full Moon or New Moon.
Using Stones and Crystals is a practice of Full Consciousness in the sense that using the Stones promotes a positive emotional state and a sense of well-being. As you reach into your pocket to pick up your Rose Quartz, you remember that your Heart is on the path to emotional healing. While you are going through a difficult time, holding your Astrological Stones in your hands will remind you that you have the strength within you to go through these trials and come out of them stronger. Do not deprive yourself of the Energy of the Stones and their fabulous ability to enchant your daily life!
