I have grown very fond of Garnet as a healing stone for the Root Chakra. I find myself drawn to it more and more often lately. I take that as a sign that I need to concentrate more on grounding. As well as being a good stone for the Root Chakra and in helping one to stay grounded, it is also very useful for an array of physical conditions. Please keep reading to learn more about the benefits of Garnet in Crystal Healing Practices.
Physically - Garnet supports thyroid, abdominal, and digestive systems. It is also a supportive stone for kidney and pancreatic health. Garnet can be used to support treatments for stomach and intestinal infections and disorders. It is helpful to the circulatory system and all conditions to do with the blood, such as blood pressure, blood disorders, anemia, and the menstrual cycle. It may also ease the pain arthritis. It is helpful to those who struggle with hyperactivity and ADHD, as well.
Mentally – On the mental level, Garnet increases self-confidence and willpower. It encourages honesty and compassion. Garnet also aids in dealing with crisis, helping one to stay calm and thing clearly.
Emotionally – Garnet aids one in making and maintaining close and healthy relationships, both with friends and romantic partners. It helps one to feel connected with the people in their lives. It also increases feelings of love and passion.
Spiritually – In addition to supporting the Root Chakra, Garnet aids in transformation and manifestation. It is a good stone for those working to increase the abundance in their lives.
Good quality Garnet can be a little difficult to find and can be a bit expensive, but rougher pieces are usually pretty affordable. I think they are well worth adding to any crystal healing collection as a stone to support the Root Chakra, healthy circulatory system, and healthy relationships.
