The Most Popular Crystals Used in Energy Healing Techniques
Reiki Crystals
Reiki works by moving a person’s energy. A Reiki practitioner, or Reiki Master, moves the energy of a client by placing their hands on or near the client’s body. This allows blocked energy to flow. This supports the body’s natural healing process.
Crystals can enhance a Reiki session. They’re placed on the body where energy is blocked. This helps move energy. This can increase the benefits the client receives.
Some crystals commonly used in Reiki energy healing are:
- Clear Quartz: Clear quartz is known as the “Master Stone.” Which is why it’s commonly used to balance a person’s whole energetic field. Clear quartz boosts Reiki because of its clear, crystalline structure. It’s gentle and purifying. Making it amazing for absorbing and regulating energy.
- Aquamarine: This calming crystal soothes body, mind, and spirit. It’s great for anyone with overwhelm, too much responsibility, or problems with self-expression and communication. It stimulates and balances the Throat and Crown chakras. This will boost self-confidence. Aid in communication. Help you speak your truth.
- Rose Quartz: This is the stone of unconditional love. Which is why it’s used in Reiki to balance any blocks in the heart. It helps open the Heart chakra. This allows energy to flow to the heart center. This can help heal past trauma that’s “broken” the heart. It can facilitate the energy needed to give and receive love, both to oneself and others.
Pranic Healing Crystals
Prana is life force energy. Pranic energy healing balances and restores the body’s energy flow. It was developed by Master Choa Kok Sui in 1987. He describes it as a “science and art.” It uses life force energy (prana) to speed up the body’s ability to heal itself. This no-touch technique cleanses and energizes the body’s energy field. This restores balance and health.
Crystals absorb, focus, project, and store energy. Making them perfect for Pranic healing.
- Amethyst: Amethyst is deeply calming. Which is why it’s commonly used to relieve mental or physical tension. It balances energy in the Crown chakra and increases prana.
- Celestite: This gemstone is all about emotional healing. Which makes it perfect for relieving stress and anxiety. It’s associated with the Throat chakra. Meaning, like aquamarine, it can help with communication and confidence. It’s also said to increase connection to the spiritual realm. Used with Pranic healing, it can help open the Crown and Third Eye chakras to enhance spiritual growth.
Without proper purification, even if the divine energy wants to flow through, it’s stuck. -Grand Master Choa Kok Sui
Somato Respiratory Integration Crystals
Some crystals have a calming energy that facilitates breathing and meditation. While Somato Respiratory Integration (SRI) isn’t an energy healing technique that typically uses crystals, but it does use breathing exercises. Incorporating certain crystals used in energy healing into the space where it’s done can support its benefits.
SRI uses breathing exercises that help connect you with your body’s natural energy. It’s especially beneficial for releasing stored trauma. Placing grounding crystals in the healing space during SRI can enhance the connection you have with yourself and your energy. Some are:
- Hematite: If you feel disconnected from your body, do yourself a favor and get a piece of hematite pronto. This powerful grounding gemstone helps people connect with the body. Which is great when doing something like SRI, which connects you to your breath.
- Red Jasper: This crystal encourages you to return to who you truly are. It increases connection to the Earth. This can make you feel more balanced and stable. It inspires courage. Determination. Stamina. One part of SRI is reclaiming your power. Meaning red jasper contains the energy that will help you do just that.
Red jasper is one of our favorites to use during an SRI session. We know all the power buried underneath the trauma. And that it takes serious courage to face this trauma.

Tarot Card Reading Crystals
Tarot cards hold energy. And getting a reading can help you connect with your own energy. Whether it’s on a mental, physical, emotional, or spiritual level. You can gain serious insight into your life during a tarot reading. This can help clear energy blocks. Release issues that you’ve had for years.
Which is exactly why some tarot readers use crystals during a reading. Crystals can enhance the clarity of a ready. Offer energy guidance. Help clear energy that can get in the way of your reading.
Two of the best crystals to use for tarot card reading are:
- Selenite: A selenite wand can help clear and protect the space from any stagnant energy or excess energy. This can help with a better interpretation of the cards. It’s also a great crystal for cleansing other crystals used in a reading.
- Labradorite: This stone enhances and activates intuition. Meaning, just like selenite, it’s perfect for interpreting your cards. It’s also helpful if you’re unsure of what questions to ask.
Cord Cutting Crystals
Cord cutting is an energy healing practice that releases energetic connections between you and other people. Energetic cords form between people in emotional bonds, repeated interactions, or intense experiences. Some cords are healthy. But others can drain your energy or hold you back. When these cords are “cut” during a cord-cutting ceremony, it releases the negative connection.
Crystals used in energy healing techniques like this are often protective. Some encourage emotional release. During cord cutting, you can hold certain crystals or place them around your body. Then visualize the cords unraveling. The crystals are like energetic allies. They help you release attachments and keep your energy grounded while doing so.
These are some of the best crystals used in cord cutting energy healing:
- Black Tourmaline: This stone absorbs and protects from negative energy. It creates a protective energy shield during release work. And grounds your energy to keep you centered while you’re doing it. This way, it’s easier to stay balanced when letting go.
- Carnelian: It’s one of the best crystals for healthy relationships. It also boosts self-confidence. It’s great for letting go of attachments to others. Even when it feels impossible. It gives you the courage to move forward. Embrace change. Using it during cord cutting can increase your emotional strength.
