At ORA, everything we offer is meant to support your nervous system and help you return to yourself, and crystals felt like a natural extension of that mission. Just as acupuncture, meditation, and breathwork shift your energy, crystals hold frequencies that the body responds to in subtle but powerful ways. We chose to carry them because they invite people into daily rituals that are grounding and supportive. They remind you that healing is not limited to the treatment room. It can be as simple as holding a stone, taking a breath, and remembering your own inner balance wherever you are.
Six Crystals to Support Your Nervous System and Invite in Daily Rituals
When we talk about nervous system regulation at ORA, we’re not just talking about science, though the science is there. We’re talking about something deeper. The moment when your body softens. When your breath gets full again. When you feel like yourself.
Sometimes that moment needs a little help.
Crystals carry the memory of the Earth. Each one holds a specific frequency that your body can recognize. They’re not magic wands, and they’re not just decorations. They are energetic allies. When you pair them with intentional breath, they become a bridge between your body and your spirit.
Here are six of our favorite crystals for healing, clarity, and support. Each one includes a simple ritual you can do at home. Start with what calls to you. Trust your pull.
Clear Quartz: The Amplifier
Clear quartz holds the frequency of clarity, purity, and potential. It amplifies whatever intention you bring to it. Think of it as a mirror for your energy. If you’re seeking focus, alignment, or a deeper connection to your intuition, this is the stone that helps you clear the fog and see what’s real.
Ritual: Hold your clear quartz in both hands. Close your eyes and take a deep inhale through your nose, filling your belly, ribs, and chest. Hold the breath for a count of five. Exhale slowly through your nose for five. Repeat for three rounds. With each breath, feel your intention expand. Say it quietly to yourself or out loud. Let the crystal carry it.
Rose Quartz: The Heart Opener
Rose quartz speaks the language of compassion. It helps you soften without losing your strength. It holds you in the moments when your heart feels heavy or guarded. This stone reminds you that love is not something you earn. It’s something you are.
Ritual: Place rose quartz on your chest. Close your eyes and begin breathing in through your nose and out through your mouth, slowly and gently. Feel the breath move in and out of your heart. With each exhale, let go of what you’re holding that isn’t love. This is a moment to let yourself be held.
Amethyst: The Nervous System Whisperer
Amethyst is the crystal that helps you come back to yourself when everything feels too loud. It soothes the nervous system, quiets racing thoughts, and opens up space for deeper inner knowing. This stone is deeply connected to the third eye and crown chakras, the energetic centers for intuition, clarity, and spiritual connection.
When you’re craving stillness, when you’re seeking answers that live below the surface, amethyst helps you tune out the noise and tune in to your inner guidance. It brings a sense of calm that is both emotional and energetic.
Ritual: Sit comfortably and place amethyst at your third eye or hold it in your left hand, the receiving side of the body. Gently close your right nostril with your finger and begin breathing in and out through the left nostril only. Inhale slowly for a count of five. Exhale for five. Continue for two to three minutes. With each breath, feel your mind soften and your inner knowing awaken. Let this be a moment of quiet clarity.
Obsidian: The Protector
Obsidian is molten lava turned solid. It is powerful, grounding, and clarifying. This stone helps you stay rooted in your truth and releases what isn’t yours to carry. It doesn’t just protect you, it clears you. Think of it as an energetic detox for the spirit.
Ritual: Sit with your spine tall and place obsidian at the base of your spine or between your thighs. Close your eyes and breathe in and out through your nose slowly for five rounds. Visualize a cord connecting you to the earth. With each inhale, draw strength from the ground beneath you. With each exhale, release anything that’s not supporting your energy.
Citrine: The Expander
Citrine is sunlight in crystal form. It carries the frequency of joy, confidence, and abundance. It doesn’t just attract wealth, it reminds you that you are already rich, when you let yourself be seen, when you create, when you receive.
Ritual: Hold citrine to your belly or solar plexus. Take long deep breaths in through your nose and out through your nose. With each inhale, visualize golden light flooding your body. With each exhale, let yourself soften into your own worth. This is a moment to claim your space.
Selenite: The Cleanser
Selenite is pure light. It clears what feels heavy or tangled in your energy field. It’s self-cleansing, which means it doesn’t hold onto what it clears. It’s the crystal you reach for when you feel foggy, off, or overly affected by the world around you.
Ritual: Take your selenite wand and slowly move it from the crown of your head to your feet. Visualize it sweeping away any stuck or stagnant energy. Then sit quietly with it in your lap. Inhale through your nose, visualizing light. Exhale through your nose, visualizing that same light clearing the body. Breathe gently for a few minutes. Let yourself reset.
Let It Be Simple
You don’t need a long ceremony to reconnect to yourself. One stone. One breath. One moment of presence. That’s where it starts.
Crystals won’t do the work for you, but they will support the work. They hold a kind of resonance that helps you remember who you really are underneath it all.
And sometimes, remembering is the most healing thing of all.
For the Set: Traveling Rituals
Healing doesn’t just happen on the cushion or in ceremony. It happens in the in-between moments too. On the plane. In the backseat. At a hotel. During a stressful conversation. In the quiet of a morning that hasn’t been decided yet.
That’s why we created the ORA Crystal Travel Set, a curated bundle of the six stones: clear quartz, rose quartz, amethyst, obsidian, citrine, and selenite. Each one was chosen to support your nervous system, your clarity, and your deeper connection to self.
Clear quartz brings clarity and focus. Rose quartz softens and opens the heart. Amethyst connects you to your intuition and inner calm. Obsidian grounds and protects. Citrine activates abundance and confidence. Selenite clears energy and brings light.
This set is designed to move with you. You can carry all six, or just tuck one or two into your bag or pocket depending on what you need that day. The clear quartz acts as your pointer, guiding the energy and amplifying the intention of the other stones. A pointer crystal is shaped to direct energy with focus, helping you send your intention exactly where it needs to go.
They come in a pouch that serves as a protection. You can unpack it in any room, on any surface, to invite intention and ritual in. A quiet reminder that you are always supported. That your healing gets to travel with you.
This is more than a set of stones. It’s a portable altar. A practice you can hold in your hands. A way to come home, no matter where you are.
