Start with a small set you will actually use. These four cover most needs: grounding, calm, clarity, and heart support.

Core picks

  • Black tourmaline: grounding and protection for busy days.
  • Amethyst: calm focus for sleep or study.
  • Clear quartz: clarity and amplification for any intention.
  • Rose quartz: heart softening for self-compassion.

Daily uses

  • Desk: clear quartz to start tasks and amethyst to end the day.
  • Pocket: black tourmaline for commutes; tap it before entering crowds.
  • Bedside: rose quartz for gentle self-talk at night.

One-minute reset

  1. Hold the stone you need. Inhale for four, exhale for six until breath steadies.
  2. State one simple intention like "ground" or "focus."
  3. Place the stone where you will see it during the next task.

Care basics

  • Use sound or breath between deeper cleanses to keep it easy.
  • Avoid soaking porous stones; quick rinses only if water safe.

Crystals support your routine but do not replace professional medical or mental health care.
