Best crystals for a living area
Lapis lazuli
Amazonite
Himalayan salt
Blue calcite
Clear and rose quartz
Moss agate
My top two crystals for the living room are lapis lazuli (throat chakra) and amazonite
(heart chakra). Lapiz lazuli encourages you to communicate freely with others, and it also adds
a layer of protective vibes. Amazonite is another useful crystal to balance the Yin and Yang
energies in a room, and it's also a stress reducer. The living room is usually dedicated to family
gatherings, so having crystals sprawled around that can cater to crowds or a faithful few is a
must. Both crystals can be placed in a small container on a table; however, make sure small
hands can't reach them. -Healthy Living Journey
The easiest way to integrate crystals into your home is to install a Himalayan salt lamp.
These lamps are a large orange chunk of Himalayan salt that has been bored out to accommodate
a light bulb. These lights emit beneficial negative ions into the room to provide a soothing effect.
Place a bowl of blue calcite crystals in any high socialized area such as a family room,
kitchen, or workspace. Blue calcite is the perfect stone to promote harmonious communication
and balance between parties. To keep your fruit from decaying quickly, add a few tumbled clear
quartz crystals to the basket, which will amplify their vitality longer. Consider adding tumbled
moss agate to your plant pots to prepare for spring as this will help them in their growth. -Crystal Reiki Center
The best crystal for your living room space would be a beautiful piece of rose quartz. The
living room space is where you entertain and have close family and friends, and rose quartz is a
stone that exudes calming, loving, and positive energies for those close to it. I would even go as
far as pairing it with a piece of clear quartz to amplify those loving energies. -Remember Love Healing

Best crystals for the kitchen
Amethyst
Clear and rose quartz
Selenite
Carnelian
Citrine
Black tourmaline
Black onyx
Shungite
We love having clear quartz crystals in our kitchen, either in clusters or towers. Our kitchen
windows are filled with plants, and they absolutely adore the energy of clear quartz, rose quartz,
and amethyst (which is also quartz-based), and they thrive around them. Selenite is also fabulous
in the kitchen as it helps keep the energy clean, clear, and filled with light. Just be sure not to
place any plants near or on top of selenite as it seems to stunt their growth and lifeforce. -The Sound Of Ashana
Create a joyful ambiance in your kitchen with carnelian and citrine. These are great stones
to inspire creativity in the kitchen because it delivers confidence, boosts creativity, stimulates
motivation, and increases stamina to make great food. These pieces shine bright in the middle of
a kitchen and work great together or separately. Stones that will offer protection against negative
influences and help you maintain a pure environment where you cook and enjoy your meals are
black tourmaline, black onyx, and shungite. We recommend putting this in a position closest to
the entrance of a kitchen where there’s the most foot traffic. -Amethyst Goddess
Best crystals for a home office
Tourmaline
Black onyx
Lapis lazuli
Amethyst
Blue lace agate
Black onyx is a stone of mental discernment, grounding, self-control, and discipline. Place
this healing crystal on the desk or nearby shelf where it will be glanced at often. Having a piece
of black onyx in the work/study area or home office helps with logical thinking and completing
tasks. Plus, it helps you feel centered and focused. -Natural Healing Gems
We love tourmaline as it's a great stone for removing negativity from any place in your
house. While studying, working, or even sleeping, it's important not to be influenced by negative
energy. -Gemstone Wisdom
Have a series of palm stones that you love near your computer so that you can hold one
while you're working – perhaps a lapis lazuli palm stone for tricky conversations, amethyst
for inspiration and creativity, or blue lace agate for keeping your cool. For the home,
selenite is an excellent stone to place near the front door or on window sills to act as a protective
shield, inviting positivity and calm and encouraging negativity to stay outside. -Amethyst Yoga And Healing
Best crystals for the garden
Quartz
Green aventurine
Labradorite
Obsidian
Quartz is like the grandfather of crystals because they help clear obstacles away and are
great for keeping pests from your flower beds. Tumbled green aventurine is also a great
addition to help keep your garden growing and flourishing because of its prosperous energy.
Lastly, raw labradorite, with its organic kaleidoscope of colors, may help your garden embrace
different outdoor conditions so they don't wither away at the first sign of seasonal changes. And
to get these crystals activated to start protecting your garden, simply give them a gentle cleaning
with mild soap and water. Then set your intentions for the crystals with a brief but meaningful
prayer or meditation, and place them in your gardens wherever your heart desires. -Sacredite Crystal Jewelry
Crystals choose you, so go with the crystal you are drawn to the most when picking the best
crystals for your home. That crystal will be exactly what you need at that moment and may be
sending you a message. But if you can't choose, obsidian is a great protective stone to have in the
garden and will suck up negative emotions before you enter the home. If you have a collection of
crystals, we'd recommend doing a few nights in the garden every so often to keep them charged.

Green aventurine is an excellent crystal to place in your garden as it carries a powerful
energy of growth and renewal. Try placing it near struggling plants as it helps to overcome
depletion by bringing a great flow of life force and vitality. There's also a bonus that comes with
having green aventurine nearby; it's known as the stone of good luck and can also bring
prosperity. -Crystal Calm Living
