My Favourite Crystals for Supporting Pregnancy, Birth + Postpartum

As a doula, I bring an array of goodies in my doula bag to support the perinatal experience. In my bag, you can find a cozy blanket, a tens machine, a peanut ball, chux pads, and even crystals!

Like all things, crystals vibrate at a certain frequency based on their compositional makeup. This means that crystals are beneficial in supporting energetic well-being as they can boost low energy, cleanse energy and release stagnant energy, and each brings unique benefits. When you place a crystal on or over the body, the energy of the crystal interacts with the energy of your body bringing calmness, healing, and peace.

Crystals radiate an energetic frequency that the body picks up and absorbs bringing gentle healing and comfort to your pregnancy, birth + postpartum spaces.

So here we have my favourite crystals for pregnancy, birth + postpartum and why I’ve chosen each!
