Crystals are powerful meditative tools, each with a unique purpose. Using crystals to guide your journaling is a way to form a deeper connection with your own intuition and the universe. If you're needing to cleanse, heal, or reconnect, crystals (along with journaling) can be a powerful way to refocus your energy.
