Having a clear mind can drastically improve the quality of your everyday life whether at home, work, or school. Decision making is easier, thoughts seem less scattered, and ideas may flow. Your intuition might become stronger, your attention span heightened, and your ability to stay on task will be increased. However, a cluttered mind can result in a chaotic life. There might seem to be more problems than solutions, feelings of anxiety or confusion, clouded judgement, or you may notice you are making mistakes more frequently. Stress is a major factor in the lack of focus and clarity, as it impairs cognitive ability and reasoning. The mind-body connection works in harmony and by reducing stress, you may find you feel much more balanced and at ease, therefore affecting your mental state as well.
Crystals are wonderful tools that can be used to achieve mental focus, concentration, and clarity of thought. By interacting with your stone, you can benefit from its unique energetic vibration that can assist in calming the mind and channeling energy to promote clearer insight. Below are some of the best stones useful for studying and memorization, problem solving, creative projects, better productivity, and being able to think more clearly in general.
