Meditation
A quiet mind is the doorway to every other practice. Tradition favours cool violet and clear stones that are believed to slow the breath and open intuition.
The stones
AmethystAmethyst: Hold one in your open palm or set it on the brow. The Picker's Rock guide calls it ideal for meditation.
Clear QuartzClear Quartz: Place it in front of you to "amplify" your intention for the session.
SeleniteSelenite: Rest it across the lap or behind you to keep the space feeling clear.
LabradoriteLabradorite: Gaze at its flash for a minute to soften the eyes before closing them.
Try this
- Cleanse your stone (moonlight, sound or a selenite plate).
- Sit comfortably, stone in your hand or on the brow.
- Breathe in for 4, out for 6, ten times.
- Set a simple intention and rest in silence for 5–15 minutes.
