Try these crystals to help stop overthinking. Calm your mind and release mental looping thoughts or ruminating thoughts with these crystals combined with mindful wellness tips.
The Problem With Overthinking Everything…
Overthinking is something many people struggle with. The problem is that overthinking things can be a big distraction from taking action or an exhausting use of your mental energy.
As someone involved in teaching things online and in my books, I see how overthinking can really block people from doing things or trusting the process. Overthinking makes things ‘seem’ more complex than they are or need to be.
Crystals To Stop Overthinking It
There are many methods and techniques to help reduce overthinking. If you are open to crystal healing, there are crystals that could help too. They can give you something physical to hold and tune inwards, refocus and stop overthinking.
PLEASE NOTE: This article is not a substitution for mental health advice or a mental health professional. I recommend you follow any needed professional advice but try to crystals in addition to this to see if it helps.
How To Work With These Crystals
If you’re new to crystal healing, pick a crystal from the list below based on the meanings and/or which one attracts you most. You can wear it when needed in the form of a pendant or bracelet. Or carry it in your pocket in a small bag or hold it when you need it.
Crystals are great tools to assist you in meditation. A tumbled stone can act as a worry stone to distract the mind from negative thinking. I recommend you cleanse your crystal or jewellery after each use or daily if you are using it every day.
3 Mindful Tips To Stop Overthinking
I’ve included a few mindfulness tips below that can be done with these crystals on you.
JOURNALING: Getting things out on paper instead can feel like a weight is lifted. You never have to look at the writing again. It’s a good evening practice to do before bed too.
NATURE WALKS: Going for a walk, ideally in a natural environment can help shift your mental state. Nature is calming and gives you something else to focus on.
GROUNDING MEDITATION: You might find doing a guided grounding meditation with visualisation helps release the day’s worries and calming. I have a free one on YouTube you can try (see below).
5 Crystals To Help STOP Overthinking:
1. RAINBOW OBSIDIAN
Rainbow Obsidian helps you release negative thought patterns. Energetically, it clears your aura and helps block unwanted energy from entering your chakras.
2. BLUE KYANITE
Blue Kyanite brings mental clarity and the ability to see through the mind’s illusions. This blue crystal can cut the hold of limiting beliefs and the lies we tell ourselves.
3. FLUORITE
Fluorite is an excellent crystal for calming an overactive mind. It brings your thoughts out of a scattered state back into balance. This crystal helps you focus and protects your mind from outside interference.
4. LITHIUM QUARTZ
Many find Lithium Quartz to clear their mind of confusion. It’s soothing and absorbs negative energy from worry and stress. Lithium Quartz is a popular support stone for reducing anxiety.
5. BLUE APATITE
I like Blue Apatite because it helps break through mental blocks and confusion. This crystal brings you greater focus and clarity of mind. It can help you better see and know the truth.

Definitely the Fluorite, and I’d also agree with the Lithium Quartz. I not long obtained a Green Fluorite pendant with White Opal accent stone; it’s a lovely combination, really helpful for restful sleep as well as mental clarity. As far as Lithium Quartz is concerned, I set the first one I bought, a tiny mauve crystal, as a pendant; the second is a lovely lilac double terminated one, about 2.5″ long, and the third is a little brownish Elestial. All of them are very handy when it comes to circular thinking patterns and staying mellow! Of the others, Blue Apatite is amazing stuff; I have a really lovely seer stone made of this crystal which is more teal than blue, plus a rich azure tumblestone and two Paraibe Apatite pendants (Apatite is part of the Tourmaline family, which might be part of why I’m fond of it); and I’m hopefully going to be looking into getting other colours next year. Rose Quartz, I have quite a bit of; Kyanite isn’t one of my crystal besties but I do rather like it; and I would love to have a Rainbow Obsidian — something else that’s very much on my wish list, along with Gold Sheen and a larger piece of Silver Sheen.
This year, I’ve found myself very drawn to crystals with lights shining in them. Labradorite/Galaxyite/Spectrolite is an obvious choice, and I’ve had it for some time now (I also found my sphere, which seems to sit on the border between Labradorite and Galaxyite and had been missing for 5 years), but also I’ve now got several lovely Opals, both gem and non-gem, Moonstone, Blue/Rainbow Moonstone, Seraphinite, and Lapis Lazuli (okay, those aren’t actually lights, but they look like it). I’m also hunting for my Larvikite(s). Oh – and asterism crystals. I now have a second Black Star Diopside, Red Star Garnet, and Blue Star Sapphire.
Something is definitely happening here. I’m just not sure what it is.
Yes, orginally I wasnt drawn to Lithium Quartz but now love it and think it’s a powerful stone to have
