You Need These Crystals For Your Kitchen

Crystals are a great way to help increase energy, manifest various situations, stimulate and revitalize the mood of a room, and more. There are a wide array of crystals, all with unique visual and metaphysical properties and benefits. To that end, when using crystals in the home, it is important to know what environment you want to create, what energies you want to attract, and what crystals will best help you achieve your goals.

The kitchen is one of the most important rooms in your house. It is where you nourish yourself, and is a great place to stimulate the mind and its creative potential. According to Bustle, the kitchen is a room that should encourage creativity and inspiration. Two crystals that help encourage these energies are apatite and carnelian. Not only will they add a beautiful touch to your kitchen décor, but they will help inspire you to feed both your body and soul.

Apatite is a beautiful, richly blue stone found across North America, Brazil, India, Madagascar, and Russia, according to Healing Crystals For You. Their name comes from the Greek word "apatao," meaning deception, because it has historically been misrecognized for other stones. Apatite is actually great at promoting a clear, logical mind, though; Bustle says apatite is a great stone for helping balance life's responsibilities and pleasures, and can help make the mundane requirement of making meals more enjoyable.

Apatite is a great crystal to have in the kitchen for its physical properties and benefits, too. It helps boost your metabolism, and helps heal major organs. If you have health concerns, the presence of apatite in your kitchen can help regulate those worries while encouraging healthy choices.

Crystals and Jewelry adds that apatite can help get rid of anxious, guilty, or embarrassing thoughts. If something went wrong during the day — a slip up at work, an embarrassing interaction, or an overall stressful day — placing an apatite in your kitchen can help clear the mind and dispel the emotions that may clog your mind while you prepare dinner. This will make the task significantly easier and much more enjoyable.

Carnelian is another excellent crystal to add to your kitchen. Carnelian comes most often from Brazil, Germany, India, and Siberia, according to Fire Mountain Gems. In terms of emotional benefits, carnelian crystals help promote self-esteem, confidence, and positive self-image, per My Crystals. They also have several physical properties; they help stimulate the body's self-healing abilities, as well as aid in digestion and combatting fatigue. After a long day, carnelian's presence can help revitalize you both physically and mentally, and encourage healthy choices. And, according to Crystal Vaults, carnelian crystals also help the body absorb nutrients better, as well as break bad habits — both of which are excellent energies to promote in a kitchen.

Energy Muse recommends carnelian for its energizing benefits, as well as its ability to encourage inspiration and a sense of adventure, which can help encourage you to make fun, new choices with your choice of meals. Keep carnelian by any cookbooks you may have, as it will help stimulate creativity and inspiration.
