Let's imagine ourselves as towers of energy transmitting our own unique vibrational frequency into the universe. Each thought and feeling can create positive or negative energy and has the power to affect others in a multitude of ways. Thoughts of anger send shockwaves into the world and cause chaos, whereas loving and uplifting thoughts help create peace and harmony. At this very moment we have the power to choose what kind of reality we wish to experience, and create this reality with positive thoughts and feelings.
We can transform our world by transforming our thoughts, which allows us to start attracting all the good things life has to offer. And yet, the more sensitive we are, the more we absorb other people's negativity, which can leave us feeling anxious and drained. Working with crystals is a wonderful way to protect our energy and clear away negativity from our surroundings.

Sit comfortably in a quiet space. Relax your body and mind by breathing deeply in and out at least three times.
Take one of the above-mentioned crystals and hold it in your hands.
Reflect on the negative thoughts, situations, and people that are holding you back from living your life to the fullest. Close your eyes and visualize each of these negative thoughts or situations as a blackbird circling around your head, squawking loudly. Now, visualize a bright light glowing in your heart space, radiating outward and upward until it reaches the blackbirds, compelling them to fly away. Imagine them disappearing behind the horizon, and feel a sense of calm and tranquility.
Say the following out loud or silently in your mind: I now send all negative energy back to where it came from and ask to be filled with the energy of love and light straight from the Source.
Open your eyes and slowly bring your focus back to your surroundings.
