There are many crystals that can help with energy protection so take a look at a few and go with what speaks to you most. Let’s go over some of the BEST crystals for protection.
Amethyst: The Empath Stone

Amethyst is probably one of the most common crystals out there, and with good reason! It is quite a powerful stone. It is a crystal that I have always personally been drawn to. Once I started learning about crystals earlier this year, it made SO much sense why amethyst was going to be my main first crystal: it is so incredible for empaths!
Amethyst is well-known for aiding in enhancing our natural intuitive abilities, which makes it incredibly popular for those that are starting to learn more about spirituality and how the Universe has our back. It is a very soothing stone too- it is great for those that tend to suffer with anxiety and restlessness. Amethyst is one of the easiest stones to find too because of its popularity.
Amethyst properties:

- Can enhance intuition
- Can help with calming an anxious mind
- Very grounding
- Clears the body of negative energy while attracting positive energy

Shungite- The BEST EMF Protection

Shungite was one of the first stones I researched, and it was the main reason why I decided to get into crystals in the first place. I was looking for affordable and effective ways for protecting the body from EMFs as I was getting quite sensitive to my computer while working. I found a really amazing pendant made with shungite, and it helped SO much. I learned the history of shungite (which I’ve summarized below) and I was sold- I was already in the mineral world, so crystals seemed like the logical next step.
About Shungite:
- It’s about 2 billion years old!
- It can absorb negative energies, and purify your body of negative energy
- Shungite is the only natural material to have powerful antioxidants called fullernes. Shungite has been researched because of this component and it earned scientists a Nobel Prize! That’s huge!

- It’s a very helpful stone for grounding, relieving stress, helping insomnia, and healing the root/base chakra
