S.A.D.

As winter has settled in upon us and we see less of the sun, Seasonal Affective Disorder (S.A.D) can affect many of us.  Some of the symptoms of S.A.D. may include fatigue, being excessively moody, having trouble sleeping and generally feeling of hopelessness and social withdrawal.  But there are things we can do to manage or ease our symptoms; make sure to get outside when the sun does appear, ensure you are getting enough Vitamin D  and of course wearing or carrying one or more crystals known for their revitalising and energy-boosting properties can help us get through those winter blues.

Carnelian – strengthens and protects the aura from outside influences, keeping personal energy levels high. It is also an excellent crystal to carry for those in proximity to sick people as it may strengthen your immune system. 

Red Jasper - warms cold limbs, increases energy and stamina and is reputed to prevent illnesses. Many people experience an immediate, gentle influx of energy within minutes.

Sunstone – the universal “ray of sunshine” stone, it can stimulate the endocrine system, bringing warmth to the body and a “feel-good” attitude. Feel inspired, creative, joyful, good-natured, and optimistic!

Orange Calcite - a stone of fun and happiness, its uplifting energy can draw in prosperity and abundance. It energises both the physical body and the mind - perfect for creativity, especially in a playful, light hearted way.

There are other crystals that can be used like Lepidolite and Quartz, and remember get sunshine and exercise in nature when you can.
