What are the best crystals for 2022?

Whether you are starting a new business, planning on working out more or quitting smoking, crystals are a powerful tool to help support you with your New Year resolutions.

If you think about it, planning, preparing and working towards your New Year resolutions is not all that different from intention setting. In the world of crystals, we call this programming and is what is needed to manifest your thoughts into reality.

Here are some of the best crystals for new beginnings  that you will want to keep close to you as we enter this new year.

 

How to set an intention with your crystals

First, it is important to understand how crystals work, what is intention setting and how it can help transform your life. For this, head over to our crystal healing 101 guide, for all you need to know to get started. Next, you will want to do a bit of research to find the best crystals to support your goal. In addition to the options we have listed before, you can browse one of our many lists like the best crystals for self love, the best crystals for confidence and the best crystals for stress and anxiety.

To set an intention for your crystal, you will want to be clear on how it is you want it to help you. Try to create a clear picture that is easy to keep in your head and easy to visualise. It helps to either write down your intentions or to say them out loud while holding them in your hand. Lastly, try to speak in the present tense and avoid negatives. Remember, this mantra holds the power to take you from ‘wishing’ to ‘manifesting’.

Don’t forget to thank your crystal for coming into your life and expressing gratitude for the energy it brings.

Some examples of intentions for crystals that you can use are listed below:

• I am strong, powerful and brave
  
• I have the power and the resources to succeed in my career
• I take care of myself and practise self-care
• I embrace happiness in my life and seek to get rid of fears and anxiety
• I am open to new love and new experiences
• I will be financially independent and achieve my career goals

You can also use this sentence as a template and complete it with your intention.

“I program this crystal with the intention of _ _ _ “
