Do you ever feel like saying what's on your mind is just going to cause more trouble than it's worth? 

You are not alone in that as many people strugle with communication in their daily lives.  Communications is one of our most important tools in life.  Our voice is unique, it matters and it helps us to forge deep connections with other people.  When we are able to speak up, we can present healthy boundaries, trust our decision-making process, grow our confidence and share our ideas and opinions.

Our voice paves the way to new possibilities and stops us from feeling small when we grant it the power it deserves!

Incorporating certain crystals in to your routine can be a way to enhance your communication skills.  Whether our throat chakra is closed, or you want to build in the belief in your own voice, or even just develop better interpersonal skill, reconnecting with crystals can assist. Crystals used for communication also have a beautiful balance of empowerment and compassion.  They break blockages and sets our fears away.

Crystals help you with a sense of clarity and rediscovering what feels true for you.  These crystals can support you with their energetic properties so that you can overcome shyness, anxiety and other obstacles that hinder effective communication.  They are gentle allies that help us tune into our own rhythms and lets us hear what's inside, rather than getting lost in all the noise around us.

Here are some crystals that can support you in improving your ability to express yourself, connect with others, achieve your goals, find that inner alignment and reclaim the power of your voice:

How to use crystals for healing:

• Take a few moments with one of these crystals, sit in a quite space, take deep breathes and ask yourself "What do I need to hear right now?"
• Place directly on your throat chakra by lying down and placing the stone on your throat for meditation.
• Use in a crystal grid to ward off negative energy and for finding the right words when you need them.
