Hi everyone,
I recently started wearing an amethyst necklace that I purchased from a local store. I have been hearing a lot about the healing properties of amethyst and thought I would give it a try. However, since wearing the necklace, I have been feeling very sleepy throughout the day. I am not sure if this is related to the amethyst or if it is just a coincidence.
Has anyone else experienced this while wearing amethyst? Can amethyst crystals actually make you feel sleepy or is it just the power of suggestion? I would really appreciate any insight or personal experiences that you could share. Thank you!

Hello there,
I have never believed in the healing properties of crystals, so I cannot speak to the effectiveness of amethyst specifically. But as a scientist, I do know that there is no scientific evidence that supports the idea that crystals have healing powers. There is no scientific evidence that crystals emit any sort of energy, and the idea that they can heal physical or mental ailments is purely a belief-based practice.
That being said, if you feel that the amethyst is making you sleepy, it could perhaps be because you subconsciously expect it to due to what you've read about its properties. It's very important to be aware of the placebo effect and how it can impact our perception of something.
If you are feeling excessively tired, it's worth looking into other factors such as your sleep routine, nutrition, or stress levels, as suggested by the previous poster.
In conclusion, while I personally don't believe in the power of crystals, I am open to hearing about other people's experiences and beliefs. However, I would always encourage people to be mindful of the placebo effect and to look into other possibilities before attributing an outcome solely to the use of a crystal.
I hope this information is helpful!
