All About Negative Energy
(and the best crystals to shield yourself from it)
Negative energy is associated with emotions, thoughts, or vibrations that are considered harmful, draining, or disruptive to one's well-being. We explore how negative energy can manifest and some of the best crystals you can use for protection.
Negative energy can manifest in various forms such as negative emotions, toxic relationships, stress & anxiety, unresolved issues and environmental factors. It can also come from other people such as 'Energy Vampires' - no, they won't suck your blood, but they do feed off the energy of others - often leaving you feeling drained, exhausted, or depleted after interacting with them.
