Usage Guidelines
Contemporary crystal therapy encourages an intuitive approach to using crystals. Therefore, crystals do not require any set protocol to work and provide their benefits. However, once you have chosen your crystal, we offer here some practical suggestions to guide you in using crystals in your daily life to maximize the benefits for your well-being:
For nighttime care
We particularly recommend using a stone (or several) at night to help you sleep. This is highly effective because you spend several hours in a row in contact with it without your mind being active. To do this, simply place the stone on your chest, solar plexus, or stomach before going to sleep. Then, as you feel yourself drifting off to sleep, place it under your pillow or next to you, along your body, like a “security blanket.” If you’re worried about dropping it, slip it directly into your pillowcase. There are no contraindications to note if you sleep with someone else. On the contrary, the person sharing your bed will benefit from the stone’s energy. *
For a moment of relaxation
Stones are companions in your daily life: whether you’re watching a movie, reading, or just settling in for a quiet moment, we recommend holding the stone in your hands or simply pressing it against you. Keep it with you for as long as you like. Here’s a sign to guide you: whenever you’re at home and think of one of your stones, it’s a call to share a special moment with it. *
To make a social interaction flow more smoothly
Stones also help harmonize interpersonal dynamics. If you sense a sensitive conversation coming up or find yourself struggling to express certain things, we recommend sleeping with the stone that resonates with you during this time. If the interaction in question takes place at your home, you can certainly hold the stone in your hands during the conversation. *
To accompany a meditation
Stones are excellent tools for meditation because they invite you to tap into an altered state of consciousness while remaining fully present with yourself. You can bring along the stone of your choice for your inner journey. Hold it in your hands or place it on your lap, then gaze at its colors, shape, and patterns… And when you feel ready, close your eyes and let yourself be carried away by whatever comes to you for as long as you wish. *
To relieve tension
If a certain area of your body feels particularly uncomfortable or tense, you can place a stone of your choice on that area to soothe it. You can perform the treatment by placing the stone directly against the affected area, or by using it to gently massage the area. You can leave the stone on the area of the body you wish to relax while sitting or lying down, whichever you prefer, for as long as you feel necessary (5 minutes, 10 minutes, 2 hours …). *
To cheer someone up
Stones are ideal for helping you through emotionally and mentally challenging times. When you feel a wave of “low energy” coming on, hold the stone of your choice close to you during the day for as long as you like, and at night, you can fall asleep with it. These waves fade more easily with this mineral support. You may even gain inner clarity about the situation despite its discomfort, and thus naturally draw valuable lessons from it.*
To get support at work
If you’d like to have a stone with you at work, you can place it on your desk and touch it whenever you feel the need or the urge. You can also take one with you on a business trip or when you’re out and about. *
For a harmonious home
To harmonize the energy of your living spaces, you can place a stone in your home wherever you choose, based on your preference or the energy you sense according to your intuition. You can also call on our experts to guide you through this process of balancing your home. *
For decoration
Nature's creations add an authentic touch to your home. You can use stones to decorate your living space however you like. The natural beauty of stone will blend seamlessly into your home and its surroundings. The beauty of each unique piece will enhance your interior with harmony and help you feel even more at home. *
To accompany a trip
Crystals make excellent travel companions, whether you’re traveling for personal or professional reasons. They’ll serve as a source of stability in your daily life. This will allow you to continue your journey of personal growth with a source of well-being—just as you would at home—even when you’re away. If you wish, you can keep healing stones at home and use travel stones as a complement when you’re on the go, so you always have a source of energy. *
For your children
Certain stones are highly recommended for children. They help children feel secure by connecting them with a gentle, soothing energy. Children are sensitive to stones because they are naturally intuitive. You can introduce a stone to them as if it were a comfort blanket. They will naturally take to it day and night, and you’ll be amazed at how well they care for it. Feel free to explain the properties attributed to their stone: they will appreciate its value and take special care of it. For an infant, you can place a stone larger than 5 cm in their crib, or tuck it inside a security blanket. *
For your pet
You may notice that your pets are drawn to your crystals. Don’t worry—they can also benefit from their harmonizing energies. Place the crystal you’ve chosen in their bed, or arrange several crystals on the floor, then let your pet snuggle up against the one they choose. To select a crystal for them, you can follow your intuition or consult an expert advisor. *
Additional information regarding the use of stones
You can use several stones at once, depending on your preference or intuition. You can also use them as often as you like: every day, once a week, or once a month. Keep in mind that the more you interact with the stone, the more you’ll notice an improvement in your well-being.
It’s essential to listen to your own feelings when using stones: sometimes you’ll want to touch them, and sometimes you won’t. The only rule is to pay attention to how you feel. At first, you may not necessarily be aware of what’s happening inside you when you touch a stone, because you haven’t yet developed your sensitivity to them.
Don't worry—just because you don't feel anything doesn't mean nothing is happening. Give yourself time to get used to the world of crystals and the feelings they evoke.
Furthermore, the stone’s effectiveness is proportional to its quality and weight. It is therefore important to choose a stone that is not too light (at least 250 grams) and of excellent quality, in order to maximize the effectiveness and longevity of the results.
* You can then proceed to clean your stone.
