Agate Crystal

Healing Crystals Benefit Your Children

Children benefit greatly from the use of healing crystals and minerals, as will you and your whole family. Children are naturally fascinated by crystals and minerals, so this is also an excellent opportunity for you both to learn more about the natural world.

The main reasons to use crystal and mineral energy with children is to calm the child, help the child sleep, feel secure, or to alleviate fears.

Facing the crazy adult world can be an anxiety-ridden experience for a child, and seeing and sensing their fear ties we adults into knots (The first day of kindergarten! What a nightmare). Below is a list of crystals and minerals you can use to help support your child (and you) during these difficult times:

1. A wonderful stone to use for stressful situations is Rose Quartz. It emits an energy as comforting as a mother’s hug. We all need a hug from our mom now and then. Rose Quartz is often used in jewelry and is commonly found in major craft stores in the jewelry making aisle.

Before the scary big day arrives for your child, explain to your child how Rose Quartz can help ease their fear. Then pick up Rose Quartz beads at a craft store (or online) along with stringing line or wire. Make single or matching Rose Quartz bracelets or simple necklaces with your child.

Wear your new jewelry on the big day, reminding your child how the stone’s energy will help him or her feel safe through the event while it also helps you. Your child will feel comforted, his or her faith renewed, and you, my friend, will be a hero!

Rose Quartz also works wonderfully as a sleep aid, especially when used with Blue Lace Agate. The combined energy of the two stones will work together to clear and calm the atmosphere around your child’s pillow. The energy will enter his or her energy field after your child goes to bed and will remain the night. The Rose Quartz soothes and calms frazzled nerves while the Blue Lace Agate quiets an agitated mind full of ideas and dreams. Try hanging Rose Quartz and Blue Lace Agate beads from a mobile over a small child’s bed, well out of reach of the child.

2. Many children have nightmares and/or are afraid of the dark. Amethyst is a purple crystal you can use to help ease these fears. The energy of Amethyst is also ideal for helping you or your child focus mentally. You may already own Amethyst jewelry.

A man I know uses Amethyst throughout his entire house, on window sills, shelves, everywhere. He carries Amethyst on his person. He claims the stone’s energy has quieted his temper, made him more easy-going, and has balanced the general energy in his home. His wife and teenage daughter say the same. They wear Amethyst jewelry and love its effects.

3. The Agate family is awash in energy that can aid in relieving fears, stress, and emotional issues. Agates have a quiet subtle energy not in the least overwhelming.

A. The energy of Blue Lace Agate is a grounding stone also useful for emotional support. It brings a sense of peace and determination to anyone feeling less than secure.

B. Moss Agate possesses a nurturing energy strongly rooted to Earth energy. Its energy gives strength during new beginnings, like starting at a new school, and improves self-esteem. Here’s a tip: place Moss Agate around your plants! You will see an improvement in growth.

C. Botswana Agate is another member of this family that promotes universal love, creativity, and can help anyone trying to discover who he or she truly is (the seemingly never-ending struggle for teenagers). Some people feel this particular type of agate possesses anti-depressant traits.

4. Citrine, or yellow quartz, is a cleansing stone as cheerful as sunlight. Citrine’s energy would be highly useful in a family with battling or noisy siblings. Its energy cleanses negative energy from the environment and the combatants’ energy bodies. This helps restore peace to the household.

Citrine energy is wonderful in a sick room! Place it near the sick child’s bed.

Use Citrine throughout your home as you might those plastic air fresheners. You do not have to tell anyone why you keep yellow rocks on the tables or shelf. Claim you’re a collector, if you must. No one else has to know how Citrine energy works for it to work! The same goes for any other crystal or mineral you may use in your home or life.

5. Every child experiences that nasty feeling known as ‘homesickness’. Fear, insecurity, and a lack of self-confidence often result. Below are a few stones that can help your child, and perhaps you while you worry about your child being somewhere far away.

A. Rhodonite is a deep pink color with black streaks. This mineral’s energy stabilizes the emotions, especially very young frightened emotions prone to panic. Rhodonite's energy grounds negative energies and supports calm, patience, and self confidence.

B. Howlite, a white stone streaked with gray, is good to hold onto when panic sets in or when calm, clear thinking is needed in a stressful situation.

C. Rhodocrosite possesses a beautiful pinkish-coral color. It grounds and stabilizes over-wrought emotions, and promotes a sense of love and self-worth.

6. The loving energy of Pink Calcite encourages peace and well-being. It can help your child to overcome his or her fears, and is very useful for anyone with grief or trauma issues as it helps to clear out the stale negative energies so love can roll in.

Parents, listen up! Pink Calcite is considered to be the ideal stone for students as it helps the student to focus, analyze, and retains lessons. (Pink Calcite could help Mom or Dad at work!)

The above crystals and minerals can be purchased online in the shape of small hearts and angels. If your child is going through a hard time, or is about to face a stressful new experience, then let your child pick out a heart or angel carved from the type of crystal or mineral they like best. Explain the heart or angel contains your love, support, and confidence and that your child only needs hold the heart or angel to feel you there facing the big day with him or her.
