Anxiety Busting Challenge ~ Day 12
Hola! Happy Thursday! It’s day 12 of the Anxiety Busting Challenge and today I’m thrilled to share with you, Hibiscus Moon. She has quite the crystal knowledge so I’m really excited to share this story with you.
I have been using crystals for over 12 years, for anxiety as well, and they are just so magical. Enjoy!

Crystal Healing for Anxiety Busting by Hibiscus Moon
Anxiety Story
Have I suffered from anxiety? Oh yes, I have. Just thinking about this little episode again makes me uneasy & in the grand scheme of things its ridiculous! There’s no reason anyone should be brought to anxiety over such silliness, but here it is.
One afternoon, I came home from work to find my dear hub making one of his notorious Sagittarius biz deals on the lawn for a huge landscape redesign with a not so scrupulous type (ya know, no receipts, no guarantees, never see him again…that sort of thing)! Accck! I had a landscape plan & I don’t like to do things like this. Not at all. But, alas, we are complete opposites. Then after this deal is almost complete, he consults me…on the spot. I left it in his hands b/c I was just too overwhelmed to deal & the whole thing had me so very worried.
Then the very next morning our tenants pulled a crazy horror tenant story on us…I won’t get into the details, but this sent me into a tailspin. I know better than to give things this kind of energy but I was having a really hard time. I spiraled right into what anxiety is for me; heart beating, constant worried sick feeling I can’t shake no matter what & not being able to take a full complete breath.
Oh! By the way, the plants in the new landscape pretty much all eventually died & the tenant nightmare could’ve been worse. So, we move on, life goes on, & now none of it matters. But at the time, it all seems so HUGE.
So, finally, I said to myself, “Get a hold of yourself Sister! Some people have REAL problems. What is this? Nothing! A little wrinkle. What’s the worst possible scenario?” I thought of it & realized it wasn’t going to be the end of the world. Huh! Imagine that.
Golden Nugget
I knew exactly what to do then. I grabbed 2 tumbled grounding crystals: my go-to black tourmaline tumblies & held on to them for dear life while I did one of my mini grounding meditations.
Here’s what that consists of:
- Can be done quickly, anytime, anywhere…like now!
- Try to do barefoot if possible
- 2 smokey quartz or 2 black tourmalines (tumblies or points)
- Seated comfortably, arms & legs uncrossed
- Hold 1 stone in your receiving hand, place the other between your feet on the ground
- Breathe in through nose, out through mouth more slowly than your in breath & deeply focus your mind on your stone for 7 breaths
- State this affirmation: “I am purified, grounded & centered upon Mother Earth.”
- That’s it, that’s all. Anxiety busted.
Challenge
So here’s my challenge for you: Give this mini grounding meditation a try next time you feel that heart racing or breath shortening. It works, Sweetness. Try it. The crystals & stones will steer you right every time & leave you with a smile on your face.

Black tourmaline are fairly common or you could always get them online. I know a few good sources.

Great post, Hibiscus Moon – I love the darker, grounding stones! I used to have a gorgeous smokey quartz wand that I’d occasionally use to channel energies I’d prefer to let go of back into the earth… I wonder where it’s got to now…
Blessings

Mother Earth has recycled them & put them to good use.
