Most People Don’t Realise How Much Energy Children Absorb
If you’ve ever spent time around children—your own children, your friends' children, or even just little ones in your life—you’ll know how deeply they feel things.
One minute, they’re laughing and full of joy, and the next, they’re overwhelmed by big emotions that they don’t yet have the words to explain.
I see this all the time, both in my own family and in the parents who come to me looking for ways to help their children manage their emotions. Their child is anxious, struggling with sleep, or finding it hard to focus, and they don’t know what to do.
And so often, the answer is simpler than we think—children need gentle ways to quiet their minds and release the energy they pick up from the world around them.
Why Energy Matters for Children
Children are naturally sensitive to energy, far more than most adults realise. They absorb everything—other people’smoods, the emotions in a room, even the collective energy of a busy day. When they don’t know how to release this, it can leave them feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or restless.
Rather than telling children to "calm down" or "stop worrying," we can give them practical ways to manage what they’refeeling. This is where crystals, mindfulness, and self-soothing techniques come in.
I’ve worked with so many parents who just want to help their little ones feel calmer, more grounded, and less weighed down by the world. And what I’ve found is that children are naturally drawn to crystals and energy healing—they instinctively know what feels good for them.
Crystals to Support Children's Emotional Well-being
These are some of the crystals I recommend most often for children who need support with emotional balance, sleep, focus, and self-soothing:
Clear Quartz – The ultimate energy cleanser. It helps clear emotional overwhelm, restore balance, and bring clarity to busy minds.
White Howlite White Howlite – A calming stone that eases restlessness, particularly at bedtime. It’s perfect for children who struggle to wind down or switch off.
Fluorite Fluorite – A great crystal for focus and concentration. If your child is easily distracted or finds it hard to settle into tasks, fluorite can help bring a sense of clarity.
Amazonite Amazonite – A gentle, nurturing crystal that encourages confidence and emotional resilience. It’s especially goodfor sensitive children who absorb the emotions of those around them.
Lepidolite Lepidolite – A naturally soothing crystal, rich in lithium, which brings a sense of calm. This is a wonderful choice for easing anxiety and helping children feel more emotionally stable.
I often tell parents to let their child choose a crystal that feels good to them. Children have an incredible ability to intuitively pick what they need, even if they don’t yet understand why.
Teaching Children the Power of Self-Healing
This is why I’m so passionate about helping children learn how to manage their emotions, quiet their minds, and feel in control of their energy.
I truly believe that if we introduce mindfulness, meditation, and self-healing to children at a young age, we give them tools that will support them for life.
One of the easiest ways to start is with a simple breathing exercise:
Encourage your child to hold a crystal in their hand.
Ask them to take a deep breath in, imagining the crystal filling them with calm energy.
As they breathe out, they can imagine all their worries melting away.
This only takes a few moments, but it can completely shift their mood and bring them back to a place of calm.
Supporting Children on Their Journey
I offer children’s crystal and energy sessions for parents who want to explore how crystals and energy healing can help their little ones feel more balanced and emotionally supported.
These sessions help children:
Connect with their intuition and learn how to choose crystals that support them.
Develop self-soothing techniques they can use whenever they feel overwhelmed.
Discover simple meditation and energy-balancing practices that feel natural and easy for them.
Children already understand energy—we just need to nurture that connection. If this is something you’d love to explore for your child or grandchild, send me a message. I’d love to help.
