Hi everyone,
I've been experiencing a lot of anticipatory anxiety lately, and I'm looking for some crystals that can help calm my nerves before events or situations. I'm currently in a job that requires a lot of public speaking, and I find myself getting incredibly nervous leading up to speaking engagements.
I've heard that crystals can help with anxiety, and I'd love to hear any recommendations you may have. I'm completely new to the world of crystals, so any guidance on how to use them would also be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello everyone,
I struggle with anticipatory anxiety as well, and I find that using crystals can be really helpful in managing these feelings. One crystal that has been particularly helpful for me is black onyx. It's supposed to be a grounding stone that can help anchor you to the present moment and calm anxious thoughts. I like to wear a black onyx bracelet on days when I know I'll be dealing with a lot of stress or anxiety.
Another crystal that has been helpful is howlite. It's supposed to have a calming energy that can help relieve anxiety and promote a sense of serenity. I like to carry a piece of howlite in my pocket and hold it in my hand when I'm feeling particularly anxious.
When it comes to using crystals, there are so many different ways to incorporate them into your routine. Some people like to meditate with them, while others prefer to place them on certain parts of their body. I personally like to carry them with me or wear them as jewelry, so that I can have them close at hand whenever I need them.
Ultimately, finding the right crystals and the right way to use them is a matter of trial and error. But if you're struggling with anticipatory anxiety, I definitely recommend giving crystals a try. They might not solve all your problems, but they can be a positive addition to your self-care routine.
