Our homes are deeply personal spaces. They reflect our personality and our interests, so it shouldn’t be surprising that they reflect our energy as well. When there’s tension between people in the home, the home energy feels tense. When you’re sad or grieving, the home holds the space of that darkness. And when your mind is cluttered with chaotic thoughts, disarray will often manifest within the home as well. That’s why it’s so important to not only cleanse the energy of the home regularly, but also fill it back up with love and light. The more you transform the home into a space of radiant positivity, the more you will inspire your spirit to vibrate at the same level. Crystals for the home help you to set the tone for your space and spirit.

So no matter where you are feeling blocked, whether it’s creatively, romantically or financially, there is a stone that can help you to tap into the energy you need for a breakthrough. Want a little more romance in the bedroom? There’s a stone for that. Need to calm anxious thoughts? There is most definitely a stone for that. Explore the greater possibilities of these healing tools with this quick guide to crystals for the home! We’re taking you room-by-room to help you remove the guesswork from choosing crystals for the home.

An Insider Guide to Crystals for the Home

A Crystal for the Office: Shungite

Shungite is an important stone for the work desk or home office because of the natural antioxidants found in the stone’s fullerenes. Unlike any other stone on Earth, this stone, found only in Russia, can absorb and neutralize the electromagnetic radiation (EMF) put out by electronic devices. If your desk is covered with a computer, tablet, phone or other electronic devices, this stone can be useful in combating that energy. It also connects with the root chakra, which will benefit your work by keeping you grounded and helping you to harness courage and resourcefulness.

Crystals for the Bedroom: Rose Quartz, Selenite and Amethyst

Looking for crystals to help you sleep and promote relaxation?What better crystal to have in the bedroom than one that invokes feelings of peace and unconditional love? Rose Quartz to the rescue! This stone connects with the heart chakra to open the soul up to vulnerabilities, and promote love in relationships. It is the quintessential stone for rediscovering self-love, as it brings you to realize that you deserve the same compassion and understanding that you give to others. Those with families can benefit for rose quartz especially. With a soft energy, rose quartz soothes the remaining tensions from the day, and keeps you from going to sleep angry as it influences empathy, forgiveness, and lowered stress.

So being that we like an energetically clean room, having a natural energy cleanser like Selenite under the bed or pillow is a must-have for restful sleep and sweet dreams. This crystal of “liquid light” maintains an energetically light and charged environment.

For those in partnerships, place a pair of Rose Quartz and Amethyst together on your nightstand. This energy combo balances that yin and yang energy and deepens the connectedness of your relationship. As the rose quartz promotes understanding and loving vibes, the amethyst enhances intuition and relaxation.

Crystals for the Kid’s Room: Celestite, Blue Lace Agate and Smoky Quartz

Celestite crystals have a calming and soothing energy. The gentle vibration of this luminesce stone calms chaos and ushers in a protective field of white light. Often tempered by bad dreams, help your child get to sleep easier by soothing their fears. Objects cast scary shadows that take on a new life in a child’s active imagination, but celestite can counteract those anxieties by serving as the light to combat the shadows. Celestite’s energy is a rainbow of happiness that will inspire good thoughts, happy dreams and more sleep-filled nights for you!

Blue Lace Agate on the bedside table also brings tranquil energies to relieve any stress, nervousness or anxiety. Every now and then, depending on if the energy of the room needs to be grounded, add Smoky Quartz to your kids’ bedrooms to stabilize and absorb any unwanted or overactive energy.

Crystals for the Kitchen: Carnelian, Rose Quartz, Clear Quartz and Amethyst

For most people, their favorite cook is their mother. Is she really the best chef in the world? Maybe, but more likely, there’s just something special about a meal made with nurturing love. Give everything you cook the same kick by adding the secret ingredient of loving energy to your kitchen.

A dynamic crystal, Carnelian emits an energy as bright as its fiery orange surface. This stone works for the kitchen because it delivers confidence, boosts creativity, stimulates motivation and increases stamina. Cooking is hard work. Carnelian will aid in lessening the physical toll that cooking takes on the body, and inspire you to take bold risks in those recipes.

We like to put Rose Quartz on the window sills to hold that energetic space as you prepare food, and ensure that the ambiance is always centered around love. Create a kitchen altar with crystals for the home that inspire creativity and innovation. Every time their sparkle catches your eye, feel a rush of inspiration flow through you!

On top of your table, place a Clear Quartz Point which keeps the energy pure and clean. When sunlight hits the clear quartz, it streams rainbows into the space and transforms it into a positive place for family meals. We also like to add a piece of Sodalite underneath the table to fuel harmonious conversations at dinner.

A Crystal for the Living Room: Amethyst

Stress relieving Amethyst is ideal for generating a relaxing, rejuvenating space. It acts as an air purifier, clearing negativity and emitting positive energy. Amethyst has a very protective energy that also continuously brings you light and abundance. It’s one of those crystals for the home that you can’t go wrong placing in any room of the house!

To get that amethyst energy emitting in every direction of your living room, try an amethyst stalactite. Covered in amethyst points, these unique stones will send third eye soothing energy throughout your entire space. Or, place a quartz stalactite slice on your coffee table. It might look like a coaster, but this crystal is all about amplifying positive energy and definitely nothing to set your cup on!

A Crystal for the Front Door: Black Tourmaline

You may have an alarm system, but that’s not going to help when bad energy is trying to enter your space. Always have a piece of black tourmaline by the front door. Black tourmaline is a highly cleansing, but also protective stone. It helps to purify you of any energy you don’t want to bring home with you after a long day, and casts an energy shield over your home to keep others from sending their negative energy your way. Crystal expert, Heather Askinosie, recommends placing a piece of black tourmaline in a bowl of equal parts salt and water. She has each member of her family make their own bowl, and set their own intention for protection with each piece of black tourmaline. That way, everyday when they come home, they can each connect with their black tourmaline stone to connect with the energy of their cleansed intention.

If you’re worried about someone stealing your crystal outside the front door, you can also hide the black tourmaline in the soil of a potted plant. Not only will this protect your protection stone, the soil will also keep your crystal charged!

Crystals for the Garden: Green Aventurine + Quartz Crystal

This combination of crystals for the garden works as well for green thumbed savants as for their less cultivation-capable friends. If you tend to stick to cactuses for fear of killing yet another potted plant, boost your confidence and the energy of your garden with these crystals for the home, and give gardening another try. Green Aventurine guides earthly energy up into the roots to pulse vitality throughout your plants. Bury it into the soil of your garden or potted plant with clear quartz for energy amplification. Quartz Crystal can also aid you in programming your garden with the intentions you want to set. Set those intentions with a quick meditation in the garden. Focus on what you want for your plants, and how you want to treat them. If watering is something you always forget, set an intention to be more mindful and attentive to your garden, and then bury the quartz into the earth.
